Product Description
Memphis Audio VIV1212 12" 1000W RMS Dual-Impedance Car Subwoofer
The Memphis Audio VIV1212 brings SixFive technology to a more enclosure-friendly 12-inch frame, delivering up to 1000 watts RMS of clean, musical bass with selectable 1 Ω or 2 Ω operation. It is engineered for enthusiasts who want concert-level output without sacrificing accuracy.
Match Any Amplifier with FLEX Dual-Impedance Technology
Every installation is different, and the Memphis Audio VIV1212 adapts with ease. Memphis Audio’s FLEX jumper plug lets you reconfigure the sub in seconds—no rewiring required.
- Switch between 1 Ω and 2 Ω simply by moving the jumper, optimizing power transfer from mono blocks or multi-channel amps.
- Saves space and time by eliminating the need for separate 1 Ω and 2 Ω models.
- Future-proof design makes it easy to upgrade amplifiers without replacing the subwoofer.
Move More Air for Deeper, Louder Bass
A folded V-groove rubber surround increases excursion while preserving effective cone area, so the 12-inch driver pushes more air on every beat.
- Greater excursion equals higher SPL for tracks that demand chest-thumping impact.
- Maintains cone stability for low-distortion response, keeping bass lines tight and controlled.
Stay Cool During Marathon Listening Sessions
High output is useless without reliability. The Memphis Audio VIV1212’s 3-inch aluminum voice coil is paired with DVVC (Direct Vent Voice Coil) cooling ports that channel air directly across the coil windings.
- Reduces operating temperatures, allowing the sub to handle its full 1000 W RMS rating without thermal compression.
- 162 oz motor structure provides the magnetic force needed for precise cone control at extreme excursion.
Install with Confidence
With a 7.5-inch mounting depth and an 11-inch cutout diameter, the Memphis Audio VIV1212 fits easily into most sealed or ported 12-inch enclosures. Whether you’re upgrading a daily driver or building a competition-ready system, you get high-end performance without complex fabrication.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What amplifier power is recommended?
The sub is rated for 1000 W RMS and 2000 W peak. Choose an amplifier that delivers 800–1200 W RMS at the impedance you select (1 Ω or 2 Ω) for optimal performance.
-
How do I switch between 1 Ω and 2 Ω?
Remove the FLEX jumper plug on the speaker terminals and insert it into the labeled 1 Ω or 2 Ω slot. No additional wiring changes are needed.
-
Will it fit my enclosure?
The Memphis Audio VIV1212 requires a cutout diameter of 11 inches and a mounting depth of 7.5 inches. Verify these dimensions against your box or consult your installer.
-
Is this subwoofer suitable for sealed or ported enclosures?
Yes. Memphis designed the driver to perform in both alignment types. A sealed box offers tighter, more accurate bass, while a properly tuned ported box will provide greater output.
