You'd like to fit a monster subwoofer in your pickup or compact car, but you just don't have the room. Alpine's got the solution for you. The Type-S SWS-1243D 12" subwoofer stands only 5-1/16" tall, so you can fit realistic bass in tighter spots without giving up an ounce of sound quality.
Alpine starts with a one-piece pulp/glass fiber cone, reinforced with Kevlar for uncompromising strength and accurate response. The tapered Santoprene rubber surround extends cone excursion and improves dynamics, so you can rock your Type-S subs without fear of a blowout. Advanced engineering gives you top performance while shaving 1-1/2" from the mounting depth of their previous Type-S 12" subwoofer.
Alpine builds the speaker leads into the spider, so they can't shake loose during extreme cone movement. A network of cooling vents reduces heat-induced distortion, so you can push your music and leave the meltdown worries behind. The dual 4-ohm voice coils give you more options for tweaking your bass, whether you're looking to wire up a multi-sub system or draw more power from your amplifier.
