PERFORMANCE
The Pro 1200 is an exceptional
performer as the low end of a two-
way enclosure or a very compact,
moderate output subwoofer. Very
smooth frequency response is
combined with amazing bass
response for its size, all with good
efficiency and high sound quality.

The 15" driver can produce high
sound pressure levels down to 40 Hz,
while the 12" can be crossed over as
high as 4 kHz. Both drivers are
strong performers in multi-way
systems.

For best results, enclosures should
be built of best-quality marine or
other high grade plywood. If you must
use construction grade plywood,
inspect each sheet thoroughly - and
do not use anything below BC grade.
Use 3/4" thick material throughout, as
thinner wood virtually guarantees
poor enclosure performance.

Use a quality wood glue, fit joints
tightly, and add internal bracing to

Look at commercially designed
enclosures for ideas on good brace
placement. Use wood screws or a
pneumatic nailer to assemble the
enclosure during gluing, to maximize
joint strength.

Strength of the completed enclosure
has a great effect on the bass
performance of the finished system.
Box panels that aren’t stiff enough
will vibrate – cancelling bass
produced by the woofer, and creating
unwanted sounds of their own. If your
box vibrates or you don’t think the
box panels are stiff enough, add
more bracing.

Vents used in the examples require
