Platform 5

The Platform 5 series is a huge subwoofer that should only be used by the serious competitor or enthusiast. This subwoofer is capable of extreme power handling and more output than any other subwoofer that we have ever offered. The Platform 5 is a 100 lb. behemoth built with enormous 11″ diameter triple stacked magnets and is the only subwoofer that we offer with a 4″ diameter voice coil. This subwoofer was designed to be the biggest, strongest, loudest subwoofer that we could deliver. It uses the strongest possible magnet grade and an enormous 8 layer voice coil to create an incredibly strong magnetic force capable of moving the extremely stiff suspension to huge excursion and output levels.

    Absolutely amazing subwoofer! I bought mine a little over a year ago and it still beats hard it’s a daily driver and I’ve got full power to it everywhere I go ! I have 2 YouTube videos up showing it and talking about it if you want to see this massive sub compared to other things. The pictures do not do it justice. Check out my channel to see the video. @ Dutch Holland on YouTube
    Best brand available hands down would never think of buying from a different company ever again.

    Beast. That’s the only word that accurately describes this subwoofer. Gets louder than you can imagine on real power. Everyone that has heard mine thinks I have a pair of 15’s. They are blown away when I show them it’s only one 12″ PSI sub. This thing moves a mile and will handle whatever you throw at it. Price seems high but your getting so much more for your money that it’s cheaper in the long run. The thing exudes quality and it plays so loud..
