Subwoofer in enclosure Renegade RXV1200

The Renegade RXV1200 is a passive subwoofer in a compact enclosure that adds deep, dense bass to your car audio system. Thanks to the sealed enclosure and the 10" subwoofer driver, the RXV1200 provides damped and accurate bass that complements the mid and high frequencies of the main speakers. The subwoofer is an ideal choice for those who want to increase the bass component of their music but don’t have space for a larger active subwoofer or don’t want to deal with an extremely complex installation. This model combines compact dimensions with a well-balanced bass performance, making it especially suitable for smaller vehicles. The RXV1200 typifies Renegade’s philosophy—powerful bass impact at a reasonable price and without unnecessary complications!

How to use / recommendations

The Renegade RXV1200 is a passive subwoofer, so you need an external amplifier to power the driver.
Connect the RCA output from your amplifier to the subwoofer inputs, or use the high-level inputs if your head unit lacks low-level outputs.
Place the subwoofer in a suitable spot in the car, ideally where it won’t be in the way but can still reproduce bass without space restrictions.
After connecting and correctly setting up the amplifier, enjoy deeper and richer bass that complements the overall system sound.

RMS powerThe RMS power of the subwoofer is constant power. This is also the performance of continuous use of the subwoofer. If you exceed the power for a longer period of time, irreversible damage or subwoofer voice coil burning! You can tell if the subwoofer is overloaded by the vibration of the subwoofer membrane.	300 watts
Max. (maximum performancePeak performance , which the subwoofer can play momentarily (approx. 0.5 s), for example when hitting drums in a song. If the maximum power is exceeded, damage can quickly occur or subwoofer voice coil burning!	600 watts
The diameter of the subwoofer in the box	300mm (12")
Sensitivity (SPL 1W/1m)Subwoofer sensitivity or efficiency. The sensitivity of the subwoofer is given in decibels (dB) and, in simple terms, means that the higher the value, the lower the demands on the power of the amplifier. This is a de facto rating of how a subwoofer converts watts to sound. Sensitivity ratings are in noise level measured at 1 meter from the subwoofer using 1 W (watt of power) or using 2.83 volts at the source at 1 meter. A higher decibel level means the subwoofer is louder with less power. For every 3 dB increase in sensitivity, the subwoofer requires half the power to reproduce the same volume. For example, if an 88dB subwoofer needs 300 Watts to produce a certain volume, then a subwoofer with a sensitivity of 91dB needs only 150 Watts to reach the same volume.	91 dB
ImpedanceImpedance - measurement of electrical resistance. When buying a subwoofer, it is very important that everyone make sure that the impedance is compatible with the amplifier that you are connecting to it. For subwoofers with a double voice coil, we recommend following the information in the advice center! Example: A 2 Ohm subwoofer cannot be connected to an amplifier that is only stable up to 4 Ohms. A 4 Ohm subwoofer can easily be used with an amplifier that is stable up to 2 Ohms. Connecting a 4 Ohm subwoofer to an amplifier that is stable up to 4 Ohms also without problems. The most common subwoofer impedance is 4 Ohm. Example: A 2 Ohm subwoofer cannot be connected to an amplifier that is only stable up to 4 Ohms! A 4 Ohm subwoofer can easily be used with an amplifier that is stable up to 2 Ohms. The most common impedance of subwoofers is 1 x 4 Ohm.	4 Ω
Loudspeaker typeThe closed enclosure is characterized by a simple construction. Closed enclosures are usually smaller than bass-reflex enclosures, and a special damping fleece is used for their damping. A closed baffle has the advantage of preventing an acoustic short between the front and back radiation of the subwoofer diaphragm. The disadvantage is that the closed enclosure raises the natural resonance frequency of the used subwoofer and thereby also increases the lower limit frequency. This is because the back side of the diaphragm is forced to compress and dilute the air inside the enclosure when the subwoofer is radiating in a closed enclosure. This adds to the inherent stiffness of the subwoofer's oscillation system the stiffness of the air in the closed enclosure. This causes an increase in the stiffness of the oscillating system and thus an increase in the resonant frequency of the entire system: subwoofer -> loudspeaker. The increase in resonant frequency for a given subwoofer is greater, the smaller the volume of air in the closed enclosure. The relatively small volume of air in the closed enclosure acts on the subwoofer as an acoustic spring when radiating the back side of the membrane into the enclosed enclosure. USE: Mainly for quality bass listening in the entire band with an emphasis on detail and accurate reproduction in the lower band. Pros and cons: + pure reproduction + small closets + easier tuning - low level of efficiency in deep bass - loudness only at the cost of enormous deflection of the diaphragm - a significant acoustic pressure cannot be expected The bass reflex enclosure is designed in the same way as a closed enclosure, but it also has a so-called bass reflex mouthpiece, or "bass reflex". Needle foam is used to dampen bass reflex enclosures. USE: The ideal use is in cases where the listener wants to achieve a high volume and a good sound pressure level. It is the best compromise between sound quality and performance and is also the most commonly used Pros and cons: + good efficiency in deep bass + a small deflection of the membrane is enough for a large volume - reproduction less accurate than with closed enclosures	Bass reflex
What is the baffle made of?Subwoofer enclosures are usually made of 18-22 mm MDF board or pressed chipboard. Due to its higher strength, MDF board is a better material than ordinary chipboard.	MDF
Dimensions of the boxEnclosure dimensions are given as height, width and depth, which is often longer at the bottom edge than at the top, due to the bevel of the rear wall.	385 x 360 x 290/340 mm
Box weight incl. subwoofer	10 kg
Beveling of the back wallThe bevel of the back wall is a crucial parameter if you intend to place the subwoofer in the luggage compartment, instead of the back wall of the rear seat. This will save you a few centimeters of space in the trunk of your car.	Yes
