Audio360 ADS1250-SHALLOW 12" Shallow Mount Car Subwoofer

The Audio360 ADS1250-SHALLOW is a 12-inch shallow-mount car subwoofer designed for vehicles where conventional subwoofer depth is difficult to accommodate. Its low-profile form factor helps make bass upgrades practical in compact truck, SUV, and custom-enclosure applications. It is intended for shoppers who want to add low-frequency output while preserving available cargo or cabin space.

This subwoofer is rated for 750 watts RMS power handling and 1,500 watts maximum power. That rating makes it appropriate for use with a properly matched aftermarket amplifier rather than direct connection to a head unit. The 4-ohm impedance offers straightforward compatibility with many mono and multi-channel amplifier configurations.

The ADS1250-SHALLOW is engineered around a rigid, low-profile cone intended to support durable low-frequency reproduction. Its shallow mounting depth of 4.13 inches allows it to fit where deeper 12-inch subwoofers may not. The 11.22-inch cutout requirement provides a specific starting point when planning a custom enclosure or replacement installation.

It can be used in either sealed or ported enclosures, allowing the enclosure design to influence the final bass character. A sealed enclosure can suit listeners seeking a more controlled response, while a ported design can be selected when the system goal is greater output. Enclosure construction and amplifier setup remain important factors in the finished system's performance.

The Audio360 ADS1250-SHALLOW is a passive subwoofer, so it requires an external amplifier, suitable enclosure, wiring, and installation hardware to operate in a vehicle. It can serve as the bass component of a new system or as part of an upgrade that adds low-end support to factory or aftermarket speakers. Verify enclosure clearance, cutout size, amplifier capability, and vehicle-specific mounting considerations before installation.

Key Features

• 12-Inch Shallow-Mount Format: Fits bass upgrades into installations with limited mounting depth.
• 750W RMS Rating: Supports use with a properly matched external amplifier.
• 1,500W Maximum Power: Provides stated peak power-handling capacity for the driver.
• 4-Ohm Impedance: Works with compatible aftermarket mono or multi-channel amplifiers.
• 4.13-Inch Mounting Depth: Helps accommodate compact custom enclosure designs.
• Sealed Or Ported Compatibility: Allows enclosure selection based on system goals.

Design & Installation

The ADS1250-SHALLOW uses a rigid low-profile cone in a space-conscious 12-inch subwoofer design. Its shallow construction is intended for trucks, SUVs, and other applications where a full-depth subwoofer would be difficult to mount. The driver is designed for enclosure-based installation rather than use as a self-powered subwoofer.

Plan for an 11.22-inch cutout diameter and at least 4.13 inches of mounting depth, with additional clearance considered for wiring and enclosure construction. Use an external amplifier compatible with a 4-ohm subwoofer and keep amplifier power appropriate for the 750W RMS rating. Select a sealed or ported enclosure according to the desired system design, and have a qualified installer confirm vehicle fitment when needed.
