Description
Description
Deaf Bonce Machete MF-12R D2/D4 is a 12-inch subwoofer designed for demanding car-audio systems, offering dual-impedance wiring (2+2/4+4 Ohm) and a robust power pathway for high-output bass.
- Size: 12" diameter cone delivers substantial bass authority in compact mounting spaces.
- Voice coil size: 3" voice coil supports higher power handling and improved heat distribution during extended bass bursts.
- Cone: Paper cone provides lightweight, responsive mid-bass behavior with solid stiffness for controlled excursion.
- Magnet: Ferrite magnet creates a durable, steady magnetic field for reliable motor performance.
- Voice coil wire: CCAW wiring combines strength with light weight for efficient signal transfer under demanding use.
- Surround: Foam surround aids controlled cone movement and long-term durability against mechanical stress.
- RMS Power: 1200W continuous power handling for sustained bass performance with capable amplifiers.
- MAX Power: 2400W peak capability handles short bursts in dynamic music passages.
- Frame: Steel frame provides rigid chassis to resist distortion under heavy excursions.
- Impedance: 2+2/4+4 Ohm dual-voice-coil configuration enables flexible wiring to amps and enclosures.
- SPL: 86.00 / 86.30 dB sensitivity reflects how efficiently the driver converts power to audible output.
- Fs: 37.60 / 38.00 Hz resonance, indicating strong bass extension into the lower midrange.
- BL: 15.80 / 20.50, motor strength related to control and linearity in dynamic bass.
- Vas: 24.80 / 27.60 L equivalent enclosure volume for achieving intended box tuning.
- Xmeh: 30 mm mechanical excursion capability for meaningful cone movement within limits.
- Xmax: 0.59" (15.00 mm) maximum linear excursion before notable distortion occurs.
- Mounting depth: 6.3" (161.8 mm) required depth in the mounting space.
- Cut-out dimension: 11.1" (282.0 mm) hole diameter needed for installation.
- Gross weight: 22.5 lb (10.25 kg) total unit weight.
In a high-output setup, this MF-12R D2/D4 delivers substantial bass with flexible impedance to fit a range of amplifiers, while its robust construction and measured parameters support durable, accurate performance in real-world installations. Plan for an 11.1" cut-out and a 6.3" mounting depth to ensure a proper fit in your vehicle, and match with an appropriate amplifier to leverage the 1200W RMS continuous power and 2400W peak capabilities.

Recommended Monoblock Amplifiers
Power-matched options for one subwoofer or one complete loaded enclosure. We aim to include same-brand choices when their ratings qualify.
Loading amplifier suggestions…
Suggestions use 75–125% of the subwoofer’s RMS rating at the wiring load shown. Check wiring, enclosure needs, electrical capacity and installation space. Set gain and filters correctly to avoid overpowering the subwoofer. Buying more than one subwoofer changes the match.
