An authoritative outdoor subwoofer
An authoritative outdoor subwoofer
This Coastal Source 14.0 Bollard Subwoofer delivers astoundingly deep bass as part of an outdoor sound system. Its sleek form factor helps it blend into the surroundings by your patio, pool, or garden, and it's built to stand up to the elements.
It can handle up to 400 watts of power, and its 12" composite subwoofer features a bandpass design that helps it produce louder bass that you can feel, as well as hear. It covers 100-400 square feet — with 360° sound dispersion — in your outdoor listening area. It can be partially buried, or surface mounted with an optional 14.0 hardscape mount.
Part of a modular Plug+Play system
A Coastal Source outdoor sound system can include an array of subs and speakers powered by rugged Coastal Source amps — all wired together with the company's weather-tight Plug+Play Coastal Connector™.
Coastal Source suggests pairing this authoritative sub with one or more of their 3-way Ellipse Bollard speakers. If you want a little help building a custom system for your unique outdoor paradise, you can contact a Crutchfield A/V system designer.
Note: For proper audio performance, you MUST use a Coastal amplifier configured to match the subwoofer.

Features
Overview: The Coastal Source 14.0 Bollard Subwoofer (B14SW12G3BN) is designed for in-ground and above-ground installations and features a sleek design that can be easily hidden within a landscape, yet looks great when installed out in the open.
Construction: The 14.0 Bollard features a 12" subwoofer driver that offers higher performance and efficiency than conventional outdoor speakers. The subwoofer driver is housed in a durable roto-molded composite enclosure designed for outdoor use. The Bollard subwoofer provides 360˚ of sound dispersion that can cover 100-400 sq. ft. of listening area.
Power & Connections: The 14.0 Bollard features a pair of male CC (Coastal Connector) input connectors for connection to an amplifier. Coastal Connection cables (sold separately) feature threaded connector-ends designed to provide a watertight connection that's rated for direct-burial. The Ellipse Bollard subwoofer can handle up to 400W (maximum).
Installation: The 14.0 Bollard subwoofer can be either landscape or hardscape installed. For landscape installations, the speaker can be installed in-ground with only the upper 1/3 section of the enclosure exposed. The 14.0 Bollard subwoofer can also be hardscape mounted to flat surfaces. Optional Isolation Spikes (sold separately) allow the speaker to safely sit on a hard surface.
