Product Description

Rockford Fosgate Power T1D212 12" 600 watt Power Subwoofer

Amazon.com Product Description

The Power Series T1D212 Dual 2-Ohm subwoofer builds on innovative new Rockford Fosgate technologies. These bad boys have patented VAST technology that increases surface cone area up to 25%, so the T1D212 performs like a much larger woofer over the previous model. The new FlexFit basket not only looks the part but provides extreme flexibility for installations. Clean, high-tech and ready to set off car alarms, the T1D212 is here.

Rockford Fosgate Power Series Subs

Rockford's top-of-the-line subs are big in every way. Rockford engineers started with cast aluminum baskets and loaded in powerful linear motors. Add to that dual spiders, aluminum cones, and high excursion rubber surrounds and you get a sub that is both physically impressive and sonically overwhelming. Power subwoofers deliver pounding bass, extreme low frequency extension and unheard of power handling capacity.

T1D212 Features

Speaker Construction

Anodized aluminum voice coil former / copper clad aluminum wire
High Excursion TPE (Thermo-Plastic Elastomer) Surround
Parabolic triangular cone geometry support system
Precision cast and vented aluminum alloy basket
Removable and reversible screw concealing ring

Embedded Copper Heat Sink Shorting Ring
Reduces back EMF (Electro-Magnetic Force) for reduced distortion and improved system efficiency.

Flex Fit Basket
The Flex Fit frame utilizes slots (where feasible) instead of single screw sized holes. This allows slight adjustment of the speaker when mounted.

Proprietary SWIFT Connection
Allows quick selection of impedance and one pair of inputs (Selectable Woofer Impedance Fused Terminal).

Symmetrical Dual Progressive Spiders
Dual opposing speders improve mechanical stability under high excursion.

VAST Surround
VAST (Vertical Attach Surround Technique) significantly increases a speakers effective radiating cone area without complicated installation issues. This design alters the typical design and manufacturing technique by eliminating the large flat glue surface area (the landing) which allows the surround to be shifted for increased cone area. In turn, both nominal efficiency and maximum output capabilities are dramatically improved.

Power subwoofers deliver pounding bass, extreme low frequency extension and unheard of power handling capacity.
