• Optimized for tight, punchy bass in sealed or ported enclosures.
• Engineered for consistent, musical performance under demanding conditions.
Key Features
• Shallow-Mount Profile – Ideal for under-seat, slim-box, or space-limited installs.
• Dual 4Ω Voice Coils – Enables flexible amplifier matching and wiring options.
• Reinforced Paper Cone – Delivers responsive and controlled low-end performance.
• Butyl Rubber Surround – Maintains linear excursion and long-term reliability.
• Low-Profile Basket – Rigid design with minimal mounting depth.
• Vented Motor Assembly – Reduces heat and increases efficiency.
• Diamond Audio Engineering – Tuned for precision, control, and lasting performance.
Performance Integration Notes
• Ideal Pairing: Diamond DMD, DES, or DS Amplifiers rated 300–500W RMS @ 2Ω or 8Ω.
• Recommended Enclosures:
• Sealed: 0.75 – 1.0 cu. ft. for tight, accurate response.
• Ported: 1.25 – 1.5 cu. ft. tuned to 35–38Hz for deeper output.
• System Compatibility: Car, Truck, UTV, or Compact Installations.
• Installation Time: Approx. 1 hour.
• Pro Tip: For optimal low-end output, face the sub toward a boundary (rear wall or corner) to enhance bass coupling in small cabins.
