51HS12 – Hideaway™ HS12 Compact Powered 12" Subwoofer (230W RMS)
The Hideaway HS12 is a compact powered 12-inch subwoofer that delivers surprising low frequency impact in a tough, all-aluminum frame. Designed to fit under the seat, it combines an integrated amplifier with flexible input compatibility and onboard tuning controls for easy system upgrades.
Overview
Big Bass Impact in a Compact Powered Package
The HS12 delivers low-frequency output from a robust 12-inch powered enclosure engineered for tight installs. Its all-aluminum frame is built for durability, while the integrated amplifier and onboard controls make it easy to dial in clean, controlled bass.
