If you're looking for big bass at a bargain price, you'll be impressed by what the Terminator sub has to offer. And they're protected by a 2-year warranty.

MTX engineering

Trickle-down technology makes the Terminator TN12-02 12" sub a serious value. MTX's exclusive spider plateau venting pushes air in and out of the inner works to keep the 1-1/2" voice coil cool, while the Assymetrical Linear Drive System uses a flat, progressive spider and an extended pole piece to produce smooth, linear movement of the polypropylene cone. The result is a powerful sub that keeps pumping out accurate bass, even during extended, high-level play. This sub's 2-ohm impedance makes it a great match for a mono sub amp.

Features

Spider Plateau Venting: Heat from the voice coil is vented through vents that surround the back of the spider. As the woofer travels back and forth, cool air is pulled in and heated air is pushed out.

Asymmetrical Linear Drive System (ALDS): The Asymmetrical Linear Drive System consists of a flat, progressive spider that improves suspension and an extended pole piece that smoothes out the cone's linear motion. The result is high output and low distortion.

Enclosure Compatibility

Sealed Box: For the best possible sound quality where space is a premium MTX recommends a sealed enclosure with an internal volume of 1.25 ft³. Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music.

Vented Box: The recommended vented box has a net internal volume of 2.0 ft³ with a slot port 14" x 2" x 16-3/4". Vented (or ported) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from less power.

I actually use them in my home speaker cabinets and have often given them the full 900 watts (each channel) for decent lengths of time during party's with no issues (as long as your not over driving them frequency wise)

Thanks for your question. For information on selecting the best subs for your amp I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to help determine the differences between the models and help you make the best choice for your system.

I forwarded your question to an Advisor and they responded with the following: If the amplifier is a mono subwoofer amplifier rated at 240 watts RMS or continuous power then it will work great with this subwoofer. If you would like to discuss further you can contact an Advisor directly by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.
