Our take on the Rock Shaker 12

The Rock Shaker 12 is a powered 12-inch subwoofer built for home theater and studio setups. It is an all-in-one design, so the amplifier is built in and it connects straight to a receiver or mixing setup without a separate power amp. Its 12-inch driver puts it in the class of full-size ported subs that dig deeper than the 8- and 10-inch models most starter systems ship with. Owners rate it highly, and the common thread is output and value against big-name subs that ask much more for similar bass.

Questions and answers

Does the Rock Shaker 12 need a separate amplifier?
No. It is a powered subwoofer with the amplifier built in, so it connects to a receiver or processor with a subwoofer output.
Is it good for a small room?
It can work in a small room, but a 12-inch sub puts out a lot of bass. Expect to keep the gain low and tune the crossover carefully.
Can I use it in a studio?
Yes. It is marketed for studio use as well as home theater, and a powered sub like this is common in mixing setups for checking low end.
How does it compare with 10-inch subs?
A 12-inch driver moves more air, so it typically digs deeper and plays louder than most 10-inch subs. The trade-off is a larger cabinet.
What do owners think of it?
Ratings are high, with owners praising the bass output and value. The main complaints are the cabinet size and the tuning needed to get it balanced.

At Rockville, for $199.95, as of our latest check.
