It is recommended to install the subwoofer in a location with good air circulation to effectively utilize the integrated spider vent. A correct installation ensures that the polypropylene diaphragm and the anodized aluminum components work optimally and fully deliver the bass performance.
The voice coil carrier made of anodized aluminum of the Prime R2D2-12/R2D4-12 subwoofers offers several advantages. Anodized aluminum is corrosion-resistant, which increases the durability of the subwoofer and protects it from environmental influences. The high strength of the material provides stable support for the voice coil, enabling more precise movements and improved sound reproduction. Additionally, the lightweight aluminum contributes to the efficiency of the subwoofer, as less mass needs to be moved to generate high sound pressures. This combination of durability and performance enhancement makes the voice coil carrier an essential component for the superior performance of the Prime R2D2-12/R2D4-12.
The Prime R2D2-12/R2D4-12 subwoofer is equipped with 4mm² compression terminals that allow for a secure and stable connection to your amplifier. These terminals are specifically designed to maintain signal integrity and minimize audio quality loss. To make the most of the 4mm² compression terminals, you should use high-quality cables that support the cross-section to ensure efficient power transmission. It is important to crimp the cables correctly to avoid short circuits and ensure a reliable connection. The dual voice coil also allows for flexible signal paths, enabling you to integrate the subwoofer into both a series and a parallel configuration.
The Prime R2D2-12/R2D4-12 subwoofer can be installed in a variety of vehicle types, thanks to its installation depth of 128 mm and cutout diameter of 285 mm. In sedans and coupes, the subwoofer can be placed in the trunk, while in SUVs and vans, other areas such as the headliner can also be utilized. The placement affects sound quality due to the type of enclosure – sealed enclosures provide more precise bass, while vented enclosures allow for deeper frequencies and stronger bass reproduction. An optimal placement that considers airflow to the spider vent ensures that the subwoofer operates efficiently and delivers maximum performance, regardless of the vehicle type.
The Prime R2D2-12/R2D4-12 subwoofer has an RMS power handling of 250 watts and a maximum power handling of 500 watts, ensuring robust power consumption and excellent volume. The SPL value of 89 dB @ 1 watt/1 meter indicates that the subwoofer can produce high sound pressure levels even at low power levels, which is particularly useful for generating strong bass without distortion. Due to its high power handling, the subwoofer can remain stable and clear even under intense bass loads, which is essential for car audio enthusiasts who enjoy listening to music at high volumes.
