Sony XS-GSW121
GS Series Subwoofer Driver

The new Sony GS series of subwoofers are the perfect way to get outstanding bottom end into your audio system. Whether you are expanding into a full-blown aftermarket setup, or are just looking to integrate better overall performance into your OEM setup, the GS Series has you covered. These drivers have been purposed-engineered to deliver outstanding sound quality and exponentially better overall performance over anything else in its price bracket.

The XS-GSW121, specifically, is a 12" Single Voice Coil subwoofer driver intended to deliver larger, yet controlled, "boomy" bass. Its large surface area allows it displace a lot of air to reach the desired low end frequency range. It is also able to accomplish this by maximizing the overall build quality, delivering a very solid 500 Watts RMS with an excursion peaking at 8.9mm. In addition, the XS-GSW121 has a very respectable Frequency Response range of 20 - 600 Hz, making it very easy to blend (crossover) into your Full-Range stage.


Premium Sound Requires A Premium Build


Premium Sound Requires A Premium Build


The XS-GSW121 single voice coil subwoofer driver cone is constructed using a Mica Reinforced Cellular Honeycomb design for reduced weight and increase rigidity, delivering deep bass response. A subwoofer's cone wants to naturally bend and warp due to the force exerted by the motor of the driver. If allowed the sound produced is Not accurate and of poor quality. The XS-GSW121 is engineered to counter act this, thereby delivering superb response.


Motor Design for Outstanding Output

Motor Design for Outstanding Output


The XS-GSW121 woofer uses a powerful, high energy Ferrite magnet to control cone travel and deliver outstanding power handling. The XS-GSW121 subwoofer is rated for 500 Watts (CEA 2031 rated), 400 Watts RMS and can handle peak power of 2000 Watts. This above-modest figure makes the XS-GSW121 perfect for a system starving for low end bass output. 500 Watts RMS will not shake a vehicle, but it will bring life to a bland audio system and deliver that thump we all love.



Maximize Power Delivery

Maximize Power Delivery


The XS-GSW121 5-way gold plated binding post provide secure wire connections for high power handling. These terminals are capable of accepting a 10-gauge speaker wire to maximize power (Read: Wattage) delivery and performance. By accepting a slightly larger wire than most traditional 12" drivers, the XS-GSW121 is able to deliver more power than a traditional 12" driver. Moreover, the gaps in the stamped steel frame allow the driver to breath, greatly reducing the risk of burning out the subwoofer motor.

Great performance

The following review is for XS-GSW121, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Good price point and and works well in smaller boxes. If your just trying to get good bass out of your car system and don’t wanna break the bank or kill your trunk space entirely then I highly recommend it.

This sub SLAMS!!!!!

The following review is for XS-GSW121, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

3 year warranty, 600 watts RMS with 2000 peak....CEA compliant. What is not to love? I will be purchasing several more. Not because mine isn't loud, but because we have 7 vehicles. I wish they would make 15's in this series
