Rockford Fosgate PUNCH P3D2-15 subwoofer

The P3D2-15 series of 15" subwoofers is part of Rockford Fosgate's most powerful series of Punch subwoofers. The P3 subwoofers now have an anodized aluminum diaphragm and canopy and a ventilated canopy - the motor is therefore much better cooled than in the previous series. Likewise, the this range boasts VAST technology, a technology that increases the effective area of the membrane by up to 25%, or the FlexFit basket suitable for complex installations. But the best of all - a new hybrid basket that amazes with its strength, and is also light and resistant to vibrations !

Key features of the Rockford Fosgate PUNCH P3D2-15 subwoofer

  • Custom 10 AWG nickel plated connection terminals.
  • Soft rubber perfectly shaped curtain.
  • Extended pole and ventilated back.
  • High temperature oscillating coil with woven support Nomex collar.
  • Diaphragm and canopy made of anodized aluminum.
  • PVC magnet protection.
  • Possibility of installing a diamond-cut aluminum grill.
  • StampCast basket with integrated center ventilation.

RMS powerThe RMS power of the subwoofer is the constant power of continuous use of the subwoofer. If the power is exceeded for a longer period of time, irreversible damage may occur, or to burn out the voice coil of the subwoofer. 600 W
Max. (maximum performancePeak performance , which the subwoofer can play momentarily (approx. 0.5 s), for example when hitting drums in a song. If the maximum power is exceeded, damage can quickly occur, or to burn out the voice coil of the subwoofer. 1200 W
ImpedanceImpedance - measurement of electrical resistance. When buying a subwoofer, it is very important that everyone make sure that the impedance matches the amplifier that you are connecting to it. For subwoofers with a double voice coil, we recommend following the information in the advice center!

Example:
A 2 Ohm subwoofer cannot be connected to an amplifier that is only stable up to 4 Ohms. A 4 Ohm subwoofer can easily be used on an amplifier that is stable up to 2 Ohms. Connecting a 4 Ohm subwoofer to an amplifier that is stable up to 4 Ohms also without problems. The most common subwoofer impedance is 4 Ohm.
2 + 2 Ω
Subwoofer diameterThe diameter of the subwoofer is indicated on the screw holes. The overall outer diameter of the subwoofer is usually 1-2 cm wider, depending on the size category of the subwoofer. For a 30 cm subwoofer, the outer diameter incl. protective rubber 31.8 cm and in the 25 cm subwoofer it is 26.5 cm incl. protective rubbers. 380mm (15")
Subwoofer mounting depthThe mounting depth of the subwoofer is measured from the bottom edge of the magnet to the bottom edge of the subwoofer's metal or cast basket. 193 mm
Fs - resonant frequencyFs - is the lower resonant frequency. This parameter is the de facto free air resonant frequency of the subwoofer. Simply put, it is the point at which the weight of the subwoofer's moving parts equals the force of the subwoofer's suspension while it is in motion. If you've ever seen a piece of string start to hum uncontrollably in the wind, you've seen the effect of reaching a resonant frequency.

The weight of the moving parts and the stiffness of the suspension (surround and spider) are key elements that affect the resonant frequency. As a general rule, a lower Fs indicates a subwoofer that would be better at reproducing low frequencies than a subwoofer with a higher Fs. However, this is not always the case, as other important parameters of the subwoofer also enter the resulting sound.

Vas - equivalent volume of airVas - represents the volume of air that, when compressed per cubic meter, acts with the same force as compliance (CMS), suspension in a certain subwoofer. Vas is one of the most complicated parameters to measure, as changes in air pressure are affected by conditions of relative humidity and temperature.

Another way to describe what VAS is: try using a subwoofer and find a baffle that is the right size to return the air with the same stiffness to the same resonance. The size of this box is equal to you. There are, of course, other parameters, but they are not so necessary for the exact calculation of the enclosure. Resonance frequency and Q-parameter values are also important when building enclosures.

Xmax + -Xmax - the maximum deflection of the subwoofer diaphragm in one direction – it is not a sum, or an abbreviation for the maximum linear deflection. The subwoofer output becomes non-linear as the voice coil begins to leave the magnetic gap. 15.9 mm
QtsTotal Q-factor of driver is a total quality factor, it includes both parameters Qes and Qms (electrical Qes and mechanical Qms). It varies in values from approx. 0.08 to 0.6, exceptionally up to 3. The Qts of the subwoofer is calculated in the same way as, for example, a pair of parallel resistors, so the result is decisively influenced by a smaller value that cannot be exceeded, which is usually Qes. 0.54
Subwoofer voice coil diameterThe larger the diameter of the voice coil, the more load capacity the subwoofer has, in layman's terms. 65.50 mm
MassSubwoofer weight in kilograms. The weight is usually given net, i.e. without packaging. 10.56 kg
