Product Overview
Add 12-inch low-frequency bass where mounting depth is limited with the Rockford Fosgate Prime R2S Series shallow-mount subwoofer. Its 3.602-inch mounting depth, dual voice coils, and sealed-enclosure focus suit installations where space is at a premium.
The mica-injected polypropylene cone and shallow motor assembly bring specific design choices to a subwoofer intended for compact car-audio installations.
Key Features & Benefits
- Shallow mounting depth: The 3.602-inch depth helps with planning installations in tight spaces.
- Enclosure options: Use the listed 0.9 cu ft sealed volume or 1.79 cu ft vented volume when designing a box.
- Dual voice coils: Choose between Dual 2-Ohm and Dual 4-Ohm configurations to match your amplifier setup.
- Cooling design: Integrated spider venting helps keep the motor cool during demanding bass playback.
- Installation connections: Dual 12 AWG compression terminals provide connection points for speaker wire.

Why Choose This Product?
The Prime R2S combines a 12-inch driver with a shallow motor assembly for applications where enclosure depth is a key consideration. Its dual voice coils offer two nominal impedance configurations, while the stated sealed-box volume gives you a specific starting point for enclosure planning.
The cone, basket, and voice coil assembly details help distinguish this model when comparing shallow-mount subwoofers for a compact car-audio build.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Check your available mounting depth against 3.602 inches and confirm that the required 11.25-inch cutout fits your installation location. Allow for the subwoofer’s listed 0.039 cu ft displacement when planning enclosure volume.
Choose the Dual 2-Ohm or Dual 4-Ohm version to suit your amplifier’s supported load. Confirm the enclosure volume and connection requirements for your intended setup before installation.
