Features
Driver: The Alpine S2-SB12 loaded enclosure features a single S2-W12D4 10", dual 4-ohm voice coil subwoofer driver. The new S-Series driver features Alpine's High-Amplitude Multi-Roll (H.A.M.R) surround and an improved voice coil that allows the subwoofer to handle increased power over previous versions. A high strength frame is designed to withstand the rigors of the new S-Series motor, while frame leg vents and a vented back plate help keep the sub driver running cool. The driver also features two strontium ferrite magnets stacked together for increased motor strength and excursion. Both 4-ohm voice coils are internally wired in parallel for a single 2-ohm connection.
Power Handling: The S2-SB12 can handle up to 600W RMS (1800W peak).
Enclosure: The S2-SB12's sealed enclosure design has been optimized for use with the S2-W12D4 driver, producing deep, powerful bass from a small enclosure. It features a rigid, heavy-duty MDF construction that's wrapped in attractive black carpet, with a smooth black and silver trim on the front of the enclosure.
RGBW Lighting: The Alpine S2-SB12 enclosure includes RGBW lighting built into the enclosure trim, providing 12 static colors and 4 dynamic lighting modes. Control of the RGBW lighting can be made using the included hand-held IR remote control. The S2-SB12 RGBW lighting can also be controlled via a connected Alpine iLX-W670 headunit (sold separately). A 6" connection harness provides the +12V and Ground wires that get attached to the vehicle electrical system for powering the lighting. A third wire on the harness attaches directly to an Alpine iLX-W670 (if used) for control of the RGBW lighting. 3-Pin RGBW In and Out ports on the rear of the enclosure let you daisy-chain multiple Alpine S2-SB12 enclosures together for RGBW control from a single remote control or iLX-W670 headunit.
Enclosure Linking (Optional): The S2-SB12's unique design allows it to be linked to an additional S2-SB12 (sold separately) using the optional KTX-LK12 linking kit. This features an aluminum rear link-plate and an attractive, steel-reinforced ABS front linking bracket that securely locks the two enclosures together.
Subwoofer Grille (Optional): The Alpine S2-SB12 does not include a grille for the driver, but can be used with the optional Alpine KTE-12G.3 steel mesh grille (sold separately).
Terminals: A single rear-panel terminal cup houses a pair of spring terminals for connecting speaker wire up to 12 ga. in size. Both of the driver's voice coils are wired in parallel for a single 2-ohm load on the terminals.

Great speaker for the price, paired with an alpine S-A60m 600w amp, thumps just like I want it to. Can get nice and loud with good clarity along with it. Would definitely recommend.
