Customer Testimonial

I ordered in advance because I assumed the shipping would take at least a few days when I chose the cheapest option. Instead, the guys shipped my order through ontrac, which delivered on the NEXT DAY! This is simply amazing, thanks!

Taking Punch to a Higher Stage

Sonic Electronix is now carrying the brand new 2011 line of Rockford Fosgate Punch P3 Series Car Audio Subwoofers. The P3D4-15 Punch Series 15" Subwoofer has a peak power rating of 1200 watts and a RMS rating of 600 watts. This sub will produce some earth shaking bass and is constructed with an anodized aluminum cone and a vertical attach surround technique. This woofer is also equipped with a 2-1/2" Voice coil and a protective PVC textured magnet cover. Add some bumps in your trunk and enhance your cars stereo system with this Rockford Fosgate Punch Series Subwoofer.

 
Anodized Aluminum Voice Coil Former

Anodized Aluminum Voice Coil Former

By using an anodized aluminum voice coil former on their subwoofers, Rockford Fosgate is able to dissipate heat from the voice coil more efficiently. A hot voice coil can melt the adhesive bonds, which will lead to eventual subwoofer failure. The aluminum voice coil former acts as a heat-sink to dissipate thermal build-up on the voice coil cool during high SPL conditions.

 
CEA-2031 Rockford Fosgate Subwoofers

Conforms to CEA-2031

Rockford Fosgate has built this subwoofer to conform to the CEA-2031 loudspeaker power handling industry standards. This means that you can trust the subwoofer to have the capacity to safely handle the continuous (RMS) power rating. Having a CEA-2031 power handling is important when matching a subwoofer to an amplifier because the power ratings are accurate.

 
Rockford Fosgate Stitched Tinsel Leads

Stitched Tinsel Leads

To improve the reliability and performance by reducing fatigue and possible shorting, Rockford Fosgate has stitched the tinsel leads to the spider. The multipoint periodic stitching lead wires reduce the mass of the tinsel leads to spread the stress over a greater area. This improves the reliability and performance of the subwoofer.

 
Rockford Fosgate VAST Surround

VAST: Vertical Attach Surround Technique

In order to increase the surface area of the cone without causing any installation issues, Rockford Fosgate designed the Vertical Attach Surround Technique (VAST). By redesigning the manner in which the surround adheres to the basket, these speakers gain up to 25% more effective radiating cone area. This improves the nominal efficiency and maximum output.

I have a pair of these P3 15s' in a sealed box on a 1200.1 prime amp and i am shocked that this low end amp bangs so clean. After booming for hours the amp and subs are cool to the touch, amp birth-sheet rates it at 1400 rms so each sub is getting 700 rms @ 1ohm. No one wants to be in the back seat of my ride lol and if i boom with the windows up they flex out past the rubber seals/trim. I can't see this setup blowing any time soon almost a year now and i go hard on them no mercy and still hits like new!

It's a DVC, 15" Rockford Fosgate driver. It's what you would expect from RF. Hours upon hours of clear-cut, back-pounding bass. Anodized Aluminum cone has a different voicing to it than the old SPP cones I upgraded from. A great investment that will last a very, very long time.

I have one in a 3 cube ported box tuned to 32ish hz i believe. In an 02 ford ranger. It's loud. It shakes the front bumper on my truck. It broke the bottom of my 3 piece back window so the bottom of the windows are flapping around now. It can do a mild hair trick. Used my buddies meter running off his portable electric meter and it topped out at 140. Meaning It is probably just very slightly louder than 140db. Not the loudest obviously. But way above your normal standard. Im running it off a RE1500.1 giving it 700 rms. Seems to be handling it just fine. Probably wont last all year at that power though. But as of now. LOUD.
