Are there any 12" subs being built with 4" voice coils?

That says 3 inch 4 layer buddy lol

Its a upgrade for a BL but it might be 4 layer

8 layer for the SPL option

Why not get a BTL it would def handle the power

Coil diameter is not the sole determining factor in thermal power handling.

im glad someone finally said it.

mossburg on here is throwing a ia 40.1 at .5 to a 3'' ssx motor (sub built by splaudio) and it takes every bit of it.

It's all about former and coil as well as cooling.

I really like the Orion HCCA 12" sub the more that I look at it. The subs will perfectly match my amp since they are the same series with the same logos and colors and the sub has some serious weight to it! Weighs about the same as the RE XXX but costs less money. I'm probably gonna go that route and give Orion a shot. Their amps have never failed me so I'm hoping their speakers won't either!

Thanks for all the solid input guys. Now if I ever need to know what subs to check out again I can just refer to the list in this thread.

You won't be disappointed. It will love 2500

Watts and they dont even get moving until 2k +

There are woofers with 3" coils that will take that daily...

 

[will3 10+ year member]

Atomic Apxx 12 w/1078 motor or RD SHW 12" with option both have 4 " coils rated for 5k rms, but it would be much cheaper to use a nice 3" 8layer 12 unless you can find some used

 

[Bettr n' Revrse 5,000+ posts]

My new one SPL built is gunna take 2000 daily...

 

[SkwurlyFab 10+ year member]

Yeah I don't need the sub to handle 5k as cool as that is. The MOST I'd be throwing at it is 2500w. and If I want to do a blow through with 4 subs later on down the road that's going to require 10,000w of power! This is going to get expensive real quick lol..

Well talk to SPL more... I am very happy with my experience with him and cant wait to get my sub...

^ glad to hook ya up

no 4" 4 layer coil will take 5krms clamped.

a rms rating means that power constant for 20+ mins nonstop
