MTX 3512-02 12" Car Audio Subwoofer

The MTX 3512-02 is a 12" single voice coil, 2-ohm car subwoofer that steps up from the 10" 3510 line with more cone area for greater SPL at the same 250W RMS rating. It's built for a mono amplifier setup in either a sealed or vented enclosure, giving installers room to choose based on available trunk space and the sound they're after.

Like the rest of the 35 Series, the 3512-02 uses an Inverted Apex surround that increases usable cone surface area, translating directly into more volume displacement and higher SPL than a standard surround of comparable size. A progressive suspension controls cone excursion as power increases, keeping distortion low so bass stays clean rather than breaking up at higher volumes. Spider Plateau Venting targets cool air at the voice coil, managing the heat buildup that causes output to fade during extended, loud sessions.

With a 26Hz to 130Hz frequency response, an 86 dB sensitivity rating, and a recommended amplifier power of 125-250W RMS, the 3512-02 fits a 1.0 cubic foot sealed enclosure for straightforward installation. For anyone who wants the SPL benefit of a 12" driver without stepping up to a higher wattage rating, this subwoofer offers a clear upgrade path from the smaller 3510 series.
