About the MTX TN12-04

Jon Paul

Big bass, great look

MTX Terminator subwoofers sound as good as they look. And they look pretty cool, with classic MTX subwoofer styling that adds a professional look in almost any vehicle. If you're looking for big bass at a bargain price, you'll be impressed by what the Terminator sub has to offer.

MTX engineering

Trickle-down technology makes the Terminator TN12-04 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.

Enclosure Compatibility

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.

Q
Can I replace a blown sub with this in my MTX Terminator box?
brendan  Dec 09, 2020

A
Yes. It's the exact same sub that came loaded in the box originally. Just be sure to wire it the two subs in parallel again to achieve the 2ohm final load at the terminal cup as it was originally. (Provided you were running this correctly, on a 2ohm stable amp with no more than 400RMS @ 2ohm x 1)

You can but its not the same sub this one is more for vocals but if u buy two then yeah they'll go right in. I had one go out on me and i put one of these in and it but the vocals out more but still had bass from the other mtx

Q
maybe I just missed it somewhere but is there a warranty on this subwoofer?

Yes there is. Crutchfield offers a warranty on all products and a lot of times the product maker offers an extended warranty. I hope this can help.

From my understanding Crutchfield warranties all their products and also I actually purchased these subs and when they went out Crutchfield replaced them no problem. You want to buy something and receive the best satisfaction, then Crutchfield is the place for you. I'm always buying from this site. Reward points come in handy as well.

Q
What would be the best amp to pair two of these subs with?

Thanks for your question. For information on selecting the best amp for your subs 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 amp models and help you make the best choice for your system.
