Engineers at Rockford Fosgate designed the P1S2-12 12" subwoofer to dish out the kind of powerful low end you crave in your ride. Its responsive paper cone is reinforced with the same Kevlar® fibers used in bulletproof vests so you get the best of both worlds — warm bass that's exceptionally hard-hitting. Rockford Fosgate uses a new technique to attach the oversized rubber surround to the cone that increases available cone area up to 25%, so this sub can push more air for even bigger bass.

The P1S2-12 sub features an extended pole piece and bumped backplate that leaves more room for heavy excursion, so it'll hit deeper lows without "bottoming out." This sub works equally well in a sealed or ported enclosure, so you can choose the kind of bass you want for your system. The sub's 2-ohm impedance will draw maximum wattage from your mono sub amp.

Features

Overview: The Rockford Fosgate Punch P1S2-12 is a 12-inch subwoofer with a single 2Ω voice coil. The sub features a StampCast steel frame, quick-release compression terminals, a Kevlar fiber reinforced paper cone, and NBR surround (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber). An anodized aluminum voice coil former and spider venting help keep the subwoofer cool.

Steel Basket: The P1S2-12 subwoofer features a StampCast steel basket for added rigidity.

Compression Terminals: The P1S2-12 features spring post terminals which accommodate speaker wire up to 10 gauge.

CEA-2031 Compliant: Power handling on the P1S2-12 conforms to CEA-2031 industry standards. This means the subwoofer has the capacity to handle its rated power under continuous demand, not just instantaneously, that over time, can damage voice coils.

FlexFit Basket: The Flex Fit frame utilizes slots (where possible) instead of single screw sized holes; allowing slight adjustment of the speaker when mounted.

Trim Ring: To improve the cosmetic look, a decorative trim ring is included that mounts over the flange of the woofer. When using the PVC trim ring the woofer is first mounted with four screws, then the ring is placed on top of the woofer, aligning the final four holes of the woofer with ring. The other four screws are used for these holes to mount the ring and woofer to the enclosure. The trim ring increases the mounting height of the woofer to 7/8 of an inch and the frame diameter to approximately 13-3/8 inches.

Enclosure Compatibility

Sealed Box: Rockford recommends a sealed enclosure with an optimum internal volume of 1.02 cubic feet (from 0.7 to 1.8 cubic feet is acceptable). 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.

Ported Box: Rockford recommends a ported enclosure with an internal volume of 1.79 cubic feet using one 3" diameter x 6" long port; this yields a tuning frequency of 36.3 Hz. Ported (or vented) 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. However, this efficiency comes at the expense of very low frequency output (below 32 Hz).

Q
I'm going to be using my RF Punch 200IX, after speaking with Fosgate they suggested using 2 P1s2-12's.. I'm having issues on finding either single or dual boxes with the 1.79 cu ft volume.. any suggestions on boxes?

To achieve the ideal 1.79 cubic feet of volume for each Rockford Fosgate P1S2-12 subwoofer fabricating your own subwoofer box would be required, Willis. If you do not wish to build your own box, you could use the SPL Boxes SB212SV dual 12" slot-ported box in the link below. This box has 1.6 cubic feet per chamber and while not meeting the ideal recommendation for size it will sound great with the Rockford Fosgate 12" subs. You can also use the second link below, the SPL boxes sealed dual 12" box that has 1.2 cubic feet per chamber and is in the ideal range for the Rockford Subwoofers. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_419SB212SV/SPL-Boxes-SB212SV.html https://www.crutchfield.com/p_419SB212/SPL-Boxes-SB212.html

Q
What amp do I need for sub?

A
This sub is 2ohm stable and can handle up to 500 watts so the perfect match amp would be one that is 2 ohm stable and can put out 250 of continuous power with 500 watt peaks. Stick with Fosgate amps if you can. They work very well together for some really long rolling low end bass. Just my opinion.
