The CARBON15.2D is a 15" car subwoofer from the DS18 CARBON series. It handles 3500 watts RMS and uses dual voice coils at 2 ohms per coil, so you can wire multiple subwoofers to the final impedance your amplifier is stable at. Peak power handling is 7000 watts. The high-excursion motor and suspension let the cone travel farther for deeper low-frequency output. The cone is carbon fiber. Mounting requires a 14.15" cutout diameter and 10.9" of mounting depth, so confirm your enclosure before installing. Pair it with a matching monoblock amplifier and a properly tuned enclosure to get the most low-frequency output.

Rated at 3500 watts RMS and 7000 watts peak. Behind that rating: 3.5" voice coil on an aluminum former wound with CCAR wire, a 425 oz ferrite motor and 22.5mm of one-way excursion. The motor is vented for improved heat dissipation, so it holds output during long, high-power sessions.
Dual voice coils let you wire multiple subwoofers in series or parallel to reach the final impedance your amplifier is stable at, which gives you room to grow the system later.
The high-excursion motor and suspension allow the cone to travel farther than a conventional subwoofer, which moves more air and produces the low frequencies you feel rather than just hear. Give it a properly tuned sealed or ported enclosure to take advantage of it.
This 15" subwoofer requires a 14.15" cutout diameter and 10.9" of mounting depth. DS18 recommends a sealed enclosure of 2.5 cu ft and a ported enclosure of 4 cu ft tuned to 32Hz. Check these numbers against your enclosure before ordering: enclosure volume and tuning change the low-frequency response as much as the driver does.
The carbon fiber cone stays rigid at high excursion while resisting fatigue over time, so the driver keeps its shape and output under sustained high power.
