Its slim 4.25-inch mounting depth helps it fit applications that cannot accommodate a conventional full-depth woofer. It is intended for vehicle audio systems using an external subwoofer amplifier and enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis HED Slim Series model uses dual 2-ohm voice coils, giving installers useful impedance choices when matching a compatible amplifier. One HS12DV2 can be wired to a 1-ohm load in parallel or a 4-ohm load in series. Both voice coils should be connected to an amplification source for proper operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a 400-watt RMS power rating and 1,200-watt maximum rating, the HS12DV2 is suited to systems built around clean, appropriately matched amplifier power. Its 84 dB sensitivity and 31 Hz free-air resonance support substantial bass extension in a properly designed enclosure. The long-excursion design provides 8 mm of Xmax.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe subwoofer combines a polypropylene-based hybrid cone design with a treated foam surround to support controlled cone movement. A ferrite motor structure and 2.5-inch voice coil provide the foundation for its shallow-profile design. The stamped-steel basket provides a stable mounting platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe HS12DV2 can be used in either sealed or ported enclosures depending on the desired system character and available space. Cerwin-Vega documentation lists a 1.25 cubic foot sealed enclosure and a 1.75 cubic foot ported enclosure as recommended starting points. It is a practical upgrade for trucks, coupes, sedans, and other vehicles where bass is wanted without sacrificing excessive cargo space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShallow-Mount 12-Inch Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses a 4.25-inch mounting depth for installations with limited clearance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual 2-Ohm Voice Coils:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports 1-ohm parallel or 4-ohm series wiring with one subwoofer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e400W RMS Power Handling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matches with an amplifier that delivers clean power within its rated range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHybrid Cone Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Combines polypropylene and treated-paper design elements for responsive bass reproduction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 mm Xmax:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides long-excursion capability for low-frequency output in a slim format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealed Or Ported Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lets installers tailor the enclosure to space and bass-response goals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe HS12DV2 uses a polypropylene cone material, treated foam surround, stamped-steel basket, and ferrite ceramic magnet structure. Its 2.5-inch voice coil is specified with dual 2-ohm windings, while the shallow frame measures 12.56 inches overall in diameter. The listed overall height is 4.84 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllow for the 11.18-inch cutout diameter and 4.25-inch mounting depth when planning the enclosure. A 1.25 cubic foot sealed box is the recommended reference enclosure for compact, controlled bass, while the recommended ported volume is 1.75 cubic feet. For ported systems, Cerwin-Vega documentation recommends a subsonic filter set to at least 30 Hz; confirm the amplifier is stable at the final wired impedance before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cerwin Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45615798550598,"sku":"CER-HS12DV2","price":207.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/4163\/5910\/files\/61K_MYTfzdL_3afc069b-9ce2-44c2-a8bf-f7817ac134a0.jpg?v=1784368387","url":"https:\/\/audiowatt.store\/products\/cerwin-vega-hs12dv2-12-shallow-dual-2-ohm-subwoofer","provider":"Audio Watt Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
