Overview

The Prime R2SD2-12 is a 12" shallow-mount subwoofer rated for 250 Watts RMS. Its 2‑Ohm dual voice coil provides flexible wiring options and an elevated motor structure reduces overall depth for installation in confined spaces.

Best for

  • Vehicles with limited mounting depth
  • Installations where a sealed enclosure is preferred
  • Systems that need flexible wiring configurations (2‑Ohm DVC)

Key points

  • 12" shallow subwoofer — reduced depth for tight spaces
  • 250 Watts RMS power handling
  • 2‑Ohm dual voice coil for multiple wiring options
  • Mica injected polypropylene cone for clean, accurate bass
  • Stamp-cast basket with spider venting to help keep the motor cool
  • Optimized for sealed enclosure use

Fit and use

Designed to fit where standard-depth subwoofers won't. Best used in sealed enclosures and wired according to the 2‑Ohm dual voice coil configuration that matches your amplifier and system impedance requirements.

What to know

This driver is rated at 250 Watts RMS; choose an amplifier and enclosure that match the RMS rating and the intended sealed enclosure application. The shallow design reduces mounting depth but does not change the need to verify available space and enclosure volume for your installation.
