Platform 1 series subwoofers are available rated for  750 – 1000 watts rms power handling and are hand built in the USA with high quality 3″ dual voice coils, stitched heavy gauge leadwires, push terminals or direct connect leads, and our heavy duty cone.

These high-end, low-cost subwoofers are assembled to very strict quality control standards, using the same high quality parts that we would use to assemble much more expensive units. These subwoofers deliver incredible sound quality and output for a fraction of the average price.

In terms of output, reliability, and quality, the Platform 1 series could be compared to subwoofers in a much higher price range. They offer top quality components, adhesives, and assembly. This series sells at roughly the same cost as many imported, low quality subwoofers with weaker, smaller internal parts. Do not be misled by the price; the Platform 1 series subwoofers offer outstanding performance at an extreme value.

Power Handling Ratings:
Standard RMS Power Handling – 750 watts
W/ Optional Hi Performance Addition- 1000 watts
Peak Power Handling – 1500 watts
SPL Burp Power – 2000 watts

Standard version features include:
Dual stacked 6.3″ x 1″ Y35 ceramic slugs
Chrome top and bottom plates
FEA optimized motor assembly
12 spoke aluminum cast frame – Black

  1. Evan Strout (verified owner)

    I got a platform 1 a little over a year ago and its still going strong! I can beat on it for hours before it even starts to get hot its definitely way under rated. I still need to upgrade my amp but even shy of power it puts everything around to shame. I can’t wait till I can get another one!

  2. Noah Plante

  5. Brian Torheim

    I have 2 of these in my trunk and by far the best subs I have ever owned also I have never had a single problem with them they are highly durable 10/10 would reccomend every time the only wish is that I had gone with platform 2s because more bass.
