PLT-12 Expansion tank

Product Overview: The PLT-5 features Linear Array Transducer (LAT) technology, which uses a series of small woofers to create sound output equal to that of a much larger subwoofer. The subwoofer array consists of six 5-inch cones that provide the same bass punch as a pair of 10" subs. The woofers are housed in a small Ultra Reflex enclosure and powered by a 250-watt RMS amplifier.

If you have a small vehicle and like tight bass, this is the unit for you. The bass is tight and powerful, not the "boom" for rappers. Very easy to set up and listen to. The wired remote is perfect for fine tuning for different music.

The PLT-5 Subwoofer System's subwoofer array consists of six 5-inch cones that provide the same bass punch as a pair of 10" subs. Alpine houses the subs in a super-efficient Ultra Reflex enclosure and matches them up to a highly-efficient 250-watt digital amplifier. The result? Clean, pounding bass from an enclosure that will fit behind the front seat of most full-size regular cab pickups.

Phase Control: The subwoofer's phase control allows you to adjust the phase of the subwoofer's output relative to the system. If the bass sounds muddy or unclear, adjusting the phase control can sometimes strengthen the bass "attack."

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Remote Bass Control Knob: You can control the bass level from the driver's seat with the supplied Remote Bass Control knob. The control knob connects to the amplified subwoofer via the supplied remote bass cable. The control knob has the following dimensions: W=1.794" (including mounting flanges), H=1.008", D=2.352" (including knob).

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.
