Description


Audiobahn AW1251J 12" Subwoofer

Sonic Electronix is now carrying Audiobahn's new 2011 subwoofers. The Natural Sound series features the same attractive appearance you're used to from Audiobahn with the chrome plated 3-dimensional flame baskets. The natural sound series are equipped with a 2" dual 4 ohm voice coil, vented oversized back plate, and 45/60 oz magnet. These subwoofers can operate in a 2 ohm or 8 ohm configuration and come in a 15", 12" or a 10" model, each featuring multi-connect lug lock terminals, which offer increased versatility in wiring multiple subwoofers.

This woofer features a KM3 coated, non-pressed paper cone, which is lightweight and efficient for a true-to-life sound, hence the name “Natural Sound.” The J-type narrow foam surround gives the woofer more cone surface area, more efficiency and the ability to reproduce a wider range of audio frequencies.

Audiobahn

This is the 3rd set of subs i ever had. I had the 15 version tho. I like these to be on 500 watts. I did my first show with these on a small Sony Xplode amp (said 600rms, but i beg to differ it seemed like 900rms or 1k but what do i know) i did a 138.6db (not to shabby) in meca as1@ headrest firing out of the trunk with car sealed (windows & doors shut) & the sub box was sealed (no port) and took 3rd of 7 people, behind a 142.6db (1st) & a 139.3(2nd). If i had a ported box that coulda been a diff story. That was my first show ever after the show i was hooked to car audio. Really wish i could have tried these in a vented box with same amp just for kicks. I recommend these for anyone.

I was a little skeptical with this brand but it surprised me. They look great and sound good. Good bass on a budget.

Good for a starter

I had a pair of these subs when I first got into car audio. I thought they were killer, but I was just then introduced into car audio. Now after a few systems later I realize that these subs are far from the best. If you're just getting into car audio these will bang enough to please you, but don't expect a long-life span with these if you want to bang the block with them. I banged with them for about a solid year until my Kenwood KAC-9105D finally blew them.
