Overview Specifications Customer Reviews
THE db212-2 POUNDS OUT AWESOME, APOCALYTIC BASS


The db212-2 enclosure features:
  • Internally braced 3/4-inch MDF--the same low resonance material used in the world's finest speaker enclosures.
  • The front baffle is clad in automotive grade ABS trim for rigidity and resistance to impact.
  • A sheet of Elastomeric damping material isolates the ABS trim from the baffle as it acts as a sealing gasket for the woofers. This "trilaminate" sandwich construction prevents unwanted rattles and resonance, ensuring bass that's as tight as it is powerful.
  • Polk Audio's patented Power Port venting technology reduces air turbulence at the port mouth for higher bass output with vastly lower noise and distortion compared to conventional ports.
  • Wheel-style heavy-duty ABS grilles protect the drivers from shifting cargo. Grilles and baffle may be painted to match the vehicle's interior color.

This graph compares the response of a Polk db212-2 (top curve) with a similarly priced sub box from a competitor known for making loud, kicking subwoofers. With the same voltage input the Polk plays louder and puts out way more deep bass. At 20Hz the Polk puts out almost 12dB more output!
The dual db124 12-inch subwoofers feature:
  • Single Voice Coil 4 Ohm drivers wired in parallel for a net 2-Ohm load, optimum for today's Class D subwoofer amplifiers.
  • Stiff Polypropylene cones for outstanding temperature and tensile strength.
  • Santoprene surrounds stand-up the harshest automotive environments, including extremes in temperature, humidity and exposure to sunlight for excellent long term reliability.
  • Fire-retardant flat NOMEX Spiders allow extended linear motion while providing highly reliable mechanical and thermal stability.
  • Former and pole piece vent the 4-Layer High Temperature Voice Coil Fomer for exceptional power handling and reliability.
  • Voice coil alignment, motor and suspension were optimized using a state-of-the-art Klippel laser analyzer, ensuring superior cone travel linearity for flatter response and lower distortion.
