Extended Excursion NBR Surround

A strong and flexible heat resistant compound, nitrile butadiene rubber is used widely in automotive applications. Gorilla woofers utilize an extended excursion NBR surround for it's strength and flexible properties during extreme movement.

Overcast Stitched Cone Assembly

The surrounds of Gorilla woofers are double overcast stitched directly to the IMPP cone surface. In addition to superior adhesives, overcast stitching improves the conventional bond between cone and surround.

100% OFC 4-Layer Voice Coil

Gorilla woofers use generous 1.50" long, 2.5" diameter 100% OFC Copper voice coils. A vented Aluminum former extract and dissipate any heat build-up, resulting in improved power handling.

Back Plate & T-Yoke Venting

Heat build-up is a leading cause of catastrophic woofer failure. Venting built into the T-Yoke, back plate, and voice coil extract and dissapate heat, ensuring Gorilla woofers keep their cool.

These Subs Hit

I have had W7's and Power Series and these subs hit just as hard as one 12W7 and are equivalent to Fosgate Power Series sub. For the price get them!

I LOVE THESE SUBS

I have these subs on a Belva bb2000d at 1 ohm. Let me tell you these subs hit so hard, my review mirror fell off. you want a sub that hit hard like a Rockford Fosgate or a 12w7 with out breaking the bank. Get these sub you want regret it.

spl

For the price u can't beat these speakers. I ordered 2 of these with the boss 5000 phantom series amp and it beats to death. And honestly the amp isn't doing these subs justice at all. They r in a vented box tuned to 36 htz and all of my friends can't believe how hard and clear they hit. I'm gonna throw some higher cleaner wattage to them to see what they really do. But for the price these r definitely a great buy. But do ur cut hole 11 inches exact and the sub fits perfect

WOW!!!

I bought the spl sub from tool king and then I bought three more from sonic and I have to say that these subs hit hard like the vcw and I found out why heres the real proof that I found out foam hits hard on a subwoofer don't get me wrong on that but it also will start to crack with in a year or less when it is put in heave heat it will peel crack and distort now rubber will not do so it has a longer life span and now heres a trick of the trade that I do with all my subs now if you put the sub out of the box next to your ear and use you hand and tap the surround on the sub the bass will be herd and you will hear the difference on it all now as for the spl subs they hit I mean it hard and I am getting the ten inch one soon else where because sonic dose not have it for some reason but I will get back on that with it when I get three of them

sounds awsome great value and even greater bass

I bought one from tool king's and I must say it sound's just as good as the nvx vcw for the price and the sound you get all your moneys worth plus more I was playing my bass tronic tracks as I was driving down my street my friend's car alarms went off and they had askt me what am I pushin and I said guess and he thought it was a 18' scar and when I pop the trunk he was just shock by it and as I pulld up to my house my brother told me the china was rattling. so tomarrow I plane to buy three more for my three hole q-logic 12' subwoofer box and as for the one in my car I am going to set it up in my brothers trunk because I hate to see people drive stock

Excellent SQ!!

Surprisingly this subwoofer hits every note with superb clarity and power handling, just as long as you don't push more than 650w rms, even though the manufacturers website says it'll handle 1200w rms!! (not to mention there's a big "1200w RMS" sticker the the back of subwoofer it self). So be careful wire it correctly and set your gain and bass boost properly and you will definitely not be disappointed with sound quality of this subwoofer.

Cons: *Does not come with and screws *Fauls RMS handling

SPL 12in Sub Gorilla Series

I love this sub. I originally had a cheap $20 10in sub that claimed 500 RMS. But I doubt it, anyways it started to distort under little power and it had blown out in under a six weeks. So I came here and found this sub that is rated at 600 RMS, and have had nothing but good experiences with Sonic Electronix. My amp puts out the equal amount of watts, so i don't even have the full 600 watts' potential (I'm not specifically sure how much continuous watts are powering it, I just tuned it by ear) . The system is in my dad's van, but when ever I get to drive it to school I have a smile on my face. Oh, and for its price it is even a better deal.
