Product Overview
About: Skar Audio VXF-12 12" 1500W RMS Car Subwoofer
The Skar Audio VXF series was engineered to deliver the perfect combination of SQ/SPL found in a competition grade car subwoofer of its power class. The VXF-12 is conservatively rated at 3,000 watts peak power, and 1,500 watts RMS, and is unrivaled when it comes to power handling and overall performance. Designed around achieving a super low "Fs" parameter, the VXF series delivers low end response with absolute authority, all while being versatile enough to sound great across a wide range of music.
The VXF-12 utilizes a high temperature 3-inch copper voice coil, which combined with its massive 300 oz ferrite motor, allows this subwoofer to deliver head turning bass at the highest SPL levels. Furthermore, we integrated a stitched, high roll foam surround, with a competition grade paper cone, ensuring that this subwoofer is setting a new precedent in terms of sound quality and strength. Whether you are looking to be the loudest vehicle at a car show, or just wanting to enjoy the bass in your daily driver at unprecedented sound levels, the VXF series is the perfect choice.
