MTX Audio TN12-04 12" Single 4 ohm Terminator Series Subwoofer

Great old school bumps

Bought refurbished and it was broken. Returned immediately. If you’re having second thoughts on refurbishing products just buy new. Trust your gut.

Don’t let the price fool you the quality is crisp.

I am not a huge audiophile however I am learning a lot during this, my 3rd, car audio system in my life. I purchased the MTX Terminator TNP112D combo over a year ago, blew the sub in Feb., now I have this one installed in the ported enclosure (1.9 ft volume I think). They are ALMOST identical however the original had a HUGE rubber surround piece compared to the one I have now. I hope to upload some pics. Oh yah, 1/16th of an inch larger mounting area than the original. Sound wise this thing started out very weak, so I spent 2 weeks "breaking" it in. I removed it from the box and in my room I used a computer PSU to power a cd player and the 200w amp that came with the package. I started by playing 50, 60, 80hz tones at LOW volume a couple hours, then bass heavy rap/techno/R&B at LOW volume an hour or two each day for a week. Week 2 with the sub mounted in the box in my room I would play bass heavy music 6 to 10 hours a day at LOW to med. volume. Each day before turning it off I'd push it to a moderate level for a few minutes, TRYING HARD NOT to top out it's ability, and each day that level seemed to increase! Now I can honestly say I am very satisfied with this sub. I use a DUAL XPE2700 400w amp from wal-mart on it with both channels bridged, 175wRMS I believe. The bass is nice and can get loud but I have the amp slightly under it's rms, prob. close to 150w. Hopefully this will last a long time and everyone out there be cautious when the urge to "see what it can do" hits!

Rubber surrounds, low power requirements, and great instructions regarding box volume and installation needs. In the process of building a fibeglass box for my vehicle but I have loved MTX products for years. I used to sell and install MTX at Circuit City. This is the first time I have installed a pair in my own vehicle. I was concerned about the large box volume so I decided to mold the box into the trunk to use more of the space. The subs sound great and you don't have to break the bank on large amps, upgraded electrical systems, large wiring, etc... Save some cash

these woofers are terrible. very over rated, blew them up on 200 actual watts. low level of excursion and terrible motor stucture. dont even start with the sound quality level. they are a disease of a woofer. if you have to have mtx, purchase the flat black mtx 5500s they can put out some level of quality. its an old model though.

It showed up the morning after I ordered it. Free shipping too! I hooked it up and it sounds great. Wayyy better than the piece of crap I had in the box before. Thanks!

Does not fit in mtx audios own sub box. Frame is awkwardly big for no reason.
