Our take on the DV12K51

The Rockville DV12K51 is a loaded bass package: two 12-inch K5 subwoofers already mounted in a vented enclosure, wired to a 1-ohm final impedance. Rockville rates it at 2,800 watts peak and 700 watts RMS continuous. The box is 3/4-inch MDF, stapled, bonded and braced, which is sturdier construction than the thin particle-board boxes common at the entry level. It suits someone who wants big output without building a box or matching drivers, and who has an amplifier stable at 1 ohm. Against separate subs and a custom enclosure it saves the build work, but it is a large, heavy single unit and the 1-ohm load limits which amps can drive it.

Pros
  • Two 12-inch subs and the vented box come as one unit
  • 1-ohm final impedance pulls full power from mono amps
  • 3/4-inch MDF, stapled and braced for a rigid box
  • Vented design favors loud, deep output
  • No box building or driver matching needed
Cons
  • Large, heavy enclosure takes real cargo space
  • 1-ohm load needs an amp rated for it
  • Peak rating of 2,800 watts overstates real continuous power
  • No grilles mentioned, so drivers sit exposed

About the DV12K51

The Rockville DV12K51 is a pair of 12-inch K5 Series car subwoofers that come pre-loaded in a vented enclosure. The wired final impedance is 1 ohm. Peak power handling is 2800 watts, with 700 watts continuous RMS.

The enclosure is made of ¾" MDF that is bonded, stapled and braced. It has computer-designed vents, is angled at 15% for bass alignment, and is covered in aviation grade tweed carpet. Speaker wire connects through Satin Nickel push terminals. Each sub has 1.82 cu ft of air space, and the enclosure is tuned to 35 Hz.

Each subwoofer has a 2" 4-layer black aluminum voice coil wound with OFC (100% copper) wire, a 50 oz magnet and a cast iron basket with a black sanded finish. The cone is fiber-reinforced, non-pressed paper with blue stitching reinforcement. It sits in a thick foam surround and is topped with a polypropylene dustcap. A vented hole in the T-yoke helps dissipate heat. A mounting gasket with Rockville branding helps seal each subwoofer air-tight when mounted.

Questions and answers

What amplifier does the DV12K51 need?
It presents a 1-ohm final load, so use a mono amp rated stable at 1 ohm and roughly 700 watts RMS or more. An amp that is only 2-ohm stable should not be used.
Is 2,800 watts the real power handling?
That is the peak figure. Continuous RMS handling is 700 watts, which is the number to match your gain setting and amplifier output to.
How much space does the enclosure take?
It is a dual 12-inch vented box built from 3/4-inch MDF, so it is large and heavy. Measure your cargo area before buying, especially in a sedan or small hatchback.
Are the subwoofers already wired inside the box?
Yes. The two K5 subs come pre-loaded in the vented enclosure and are wired together to a 1-ohm final impedance, so you connect the box to your amp rather than wiring each driver.
Can I use it with a factory stereo?
No. It needs an external amplifier with a 1-ohm-stable output, plus a line-out converter or aftermarket head unit to feed that amp.
