BK XXLS400 question

so sealed enclosure subs need more power? but is the 400w rms in terms of true bass power? if u get what I mean

I've the specs of the driver it says 175w RMS 350w max. so does that mean it can handle 350w?

It depends at what frequency. At higher frequencies (perhaps 100Hz+) it's the same, ports can increase efficiency through driver resonance etc.

hi

I have a BK XXLS400 sub. I'm just wondering why on BK site it's saying it's a true 400W RMS 12"sub but looking at the Peerless 835017 12" driver on one of the sites it says Power Rating: 175W?

The answer to the question is the driver will handle thousands of watts for thousandths of a second and this is what music is all about. High instantaneous power and low average power, which is what RMS essentially is for a sine wave into a resistive load.
 
(1) Write all these figures on a piece of paper.
(2) Put the paper in the bin and enjoy listening to the sub.

Seriously, BK subs are fantastic. The XLS200 rocks my living room. Just buy one and enjoy it.
 
The XLS400 is a beautiful piece of engineer and workmanship, buy it with confidence.

another one - just buy the XLS400 - it's superb.
