Rockford Fosgate RFP-1408/1808, RFP-1418/1815, RFP-1415/1815 manual Aluminum Voice Coil Former

Page 5

◆Aluminum Voice Coil Former

The voice coil former is black, anodized aluminum for highly efficient thermal transfer. This allows winding high temperature copper wire in multiple layers for improved efficiency.

THE RESULT: Improves power handling by efficiently dissipating heat

◆Four-Layer Voice Coil

Multiple layers of high temperature copper wire are wound on the Aluminum Voice Coil for efficient thermal transfer. The massive voice coil increases XMAX and adds to the moving mass of the speaker. This lowers the Fs of the speaker for better low frequency response and increases the power handling.

THE RESULT: Increases XMAX and power handling

◆Dual Laminated Foam Surrounds

The RF Punch Woofers employ a dual laminate foam surround for the front of the woofer's suspension. Dual lamination improves reliability by making the woofer mechanically stronger.

THE RESULT: Adds mechanical strength

◆Hyper-Extended Pole Piece

The pole piece has been extended to provide a more linear magnetic field for the operation of the woofer. This lowers distortion and provides the woofer with better low frequency response.

THE RESULT: Lowers distortion and provides better low frequency response

◆Vented Bumped Back Plate

The back plate has been stepped deeper to allow the woofer more excursion without bottoming out. This enables the speaker to be used in a smaller enclosure. Additionally, the back plate is vented with a radiused aerodynamic back vent which efficiently and quietly circu- lates cool air around the voice coil.

THE RESULT: More excursion and increased power handling

RFP-1418/1815, RFP-1412/1812, RFP-1415/1815, RFP-1410/1810, RFP-1408/1808 specifications

Rockford Fosgate, a renowned name in the audio industry, has consistently delivered top-notch subwoofers that elevate the listening experience. Among its impressive lineup, the RFP-1415/1815, RFP-1410/1810, RFP-1412/1812, RFP-1418/1815, and RFP-1408/1808 stand out for their powerful performance and advanced technology.

These subwoofers are engineered to deliver deep, resonant bass that enhances any audio system. One of their standout features is the advanced cone design, which optimizes sound output while ensuring durability. The cones are crafted from high-quality materials that allow for superior flexibility and stiffness, contributing to a more precise bass response. Additionally, the subwoofers feature a large voice coil that enables them to handle greater power and operate efficiently even at high volumes.

The RFP series embraces cutting-edge technologies that enhance their overall performance. The use of high-temperature voice coils minimizes distortion, ensuring that your music sounds clear and undistorted. This is crucial for bass-heavy genres where muddiness can plague lesser quality subwoofers. The incorporation of an innovative cooling design ensures that the voice coils remain at a manageable temperature, thus prolonging the life of the subwoofer and maintaining performance over time.

Another significant characteristic of these subwoofers is their flexibility in installation. They can be configured in various setups, making them suitable for a wide range of vehicles and audio systems. Whether you're looking for a single subwoofer setup or a more complex multi-subwoofer arrangement, the RFP series adapits easily to your needs.

The RFP-1415/1815 features a dual 15-inch setup designed for exceptional bass impact, while the RFP-1408/1808 is a compact 8-inch option that still delivers impressive low-frequency response. Meanwhile, the RFP-1410/1810 and RFP-1412/1812 offer versatile 10-inch and 12-inch sizes, allowing for a balance between size and performance.

While aesthetics might not be the primary consideration for all users, these subwoofers come with a rugged yet sleek design that complements any sound system setup. Their robust construction not only contributes to their sound quality but also ensures they can withstand the rigors of daily use. In summary, Rockford Fosgate's RFP series is engineered for those who demand powerful, deep bass without compromising on clarity or durability.
