Dayton Audio 15" Reference Series HO Subwoofer and Cabinet Bundle 800 WattsAbout the Cabinet
This particular cabinet is designed specifically for the Dayton Audio 15" Reference Series High Output subwoofer, but works for any subwoofer with an overall diameter of 15-3/8" or less, and a cutout requirement of 14-1/16" or less. The sealed enclosure design creates a critically damped subwoofer system when used with the Dayton Audio RSS390HO-4.
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 (scribed amplifier cutout is for the Dayton Audio SPA1000 or SPA500).
The end result is a resonance-free, sealed subwoofer cabinet that is purpose-built to extract the best performance from Dayton Audio's 15" High Output Reference Series subwoofer. All that's left to do is finish it to match your décor or paint it to stand out. When your friends ask about it, you get the pleasure of saying, "I built it myself!"

About the Subwoofer
The Dayton Audio Reference Series subwoofers take the quality and performance of the much acclaimed RS line into the subwoofer realm. As with the rest of the Reference Series, the main focus of these subwoofers is ultra-low-distortion. Second, third, and intemodulation distortion are kept extremely low by utilizing three short-circuit paths within the motor structure.
A durable aramid fiber spider and extensive venting throughout provide quiet and uniform excursion. The black anodized cone, rubber surround, and custom basket give this driver a unique, high-end look. Choose the high output version for automotive applications or for equalized high-power home subwoofer speaker systems.
