About the Cabinet
This particular cabinet is designed specifically for the Dayton Audio RSS315HO-4 12" Reference Series High Output subwoofer, but works for any subwoofer with an overall diameter of 12-3/8" or less, and a cutout requirement of 11-1/8" or less. For optimum performance, the cabinet is oversized to allow for the use of a plate amplifier with bass boost (such as the or plate amplifiers) to extend the frequency response while staying musical.
During the CNC manufacturing process, rabbets dadoes are cut into the back and side panels ensuring precise alignment. A unique interlocking two-piece brace adds superior rigidity without affecting the subwoofer's performance. In addition, the initial baffle includes rabbets and dadoes ensuring perfect installation of the first part of the two-part, double thick baffle. Plate amplifier installation is made easy by following the scribed interior guide with a jig saw.
