this driver is vented at 35.5 Hz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe GZRW 12XSPL is a 31.80 Hz motor with a 0.6840 Qts and 27.20 litres of Vas, and this cabinet gives it 1.445 cubic feet net, vented at 35.5 Hz through a 29.0 square inch port. The 32.0 by 16.0 by 12.0 inch enclosure gets F3 down to 29.5 Hz with 4.43 dB of passband ripple. Ground Zero publishes no vented recommendation of its own for this driver, so the alignment stands on the published Fs, Qts, and Vas alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThreaded insert kit ships with this box.\u003c\/strong\u003e Ground Zero does not publish the mounting hole locations for the GZRW 12XSPL, so we cannot install the threaded inserts before it ships. The threaded insert kit comes in the box instead: 8 to 12 inserts sized to the woofer, the correct drill bit, 2.5 inch allen-head screws, an allen key and woofer gasket tape. You set the inserts when you mount the woofer; one kit serves one woofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 0.6840 Qts on 27.20 litres of Vas, backed by a 0.7580 Qes and a 7.0280 Qms, is a compliant motor that wants air, and 35.5 Hz brings F3 to 29.5 Hz on 4.43 dB of ripple. At the driver's rated 1000 W the port runs 13.6 metres per second through the mouth at 1200 W, the reference point the velocity check is measured against. The 521.3 square centimetre Sd behind this solve is not a Ground Zero figure: Ground Zero publishes no cone area for the GZRW 12XSPL, so the number is estimated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat makes it Professional\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThree-layer baffle, flush mount\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree layers of 3\/4 inch Langboard Elite make a 2.25 inch\n    front. The outer layer is routed to the flange, so the woofer sits flush with the face; the two layers behind it\n    carry the mounting hardware and the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGround Zero logo acrylic\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA glossy black acrylic insert with the Ground Zero mark sits in the outer\n    layer beside the woofer.

The channel runs 6.25 inches along its wall and turns once along the back wall for another 22.03 inches, which is why a 35.5 Hz tuning fits a 12.00 inch deep box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy this is a Professional build\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery driver is run through the Performance Optimized wedge and down-fire before this chassis; the Professional box is where a driver lands when that smaller envelope, 30 inches wide and 18 inches deep with a triangular side port, cannot give it what it needs at its rated power. The GZRW 12XSPL did not clear the channel 25.1 m\/s over 0.55 x core 44.9 gate there: the nearest wedge that fits is 27.5 by 9.75 by 15.39 inches with a 24.7 square inch port, and no tuning, width or depth inside that envelope passes. The slot on this box reaches 29.0 square inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat the price covers\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Professional cabinet is priced the same way, by its size: this one is 3.56 cubic feet outside. Delivery to the 48 states is inside the price; it ships as a 54 lb parcel and checkout adds nothing. The Performance Optimized 12 inch ported wedge is $399.99. The $46 difference is the larger box and the port this driver needs to run at its rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe cabinet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e32.00\" W x 16.00\" H x 12.00\" D external. Two windowed braces run front to back either side of the woofer, clearing the cutout by two and a half inches. The box ships dry: polyfill detunes a ported alignment. This is our single-twelve Professional envelope built around the GZRW 12XSPL's own frame and motor depth, a 12.240 inch frame over an 11.340 inch cutout and 6.540 inches of mounting depth. It ships as a parcel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eGround Zero publishes no cone area for the GZRW 12XSPL: the 521.3 square centimetre Sd behind this alignment, its tuning, port sizing, and velocity math, is estimated, not measured or stated by Ground Zero. Ground Zero also publishes no driver displacement; the 0.111 cubic foot figure used here is estimated too, and it affects only the gross volume figure, not the tuning or port math. Ground Zero publishes no mounting hole locations for the GZRW 12XSPL, so the threaded insert kit ships loose in the box rather than pressed into the baffle before the cabinet ships. Ground Zero labels its excursion figure Max. Excursion without stating a basis; the manual gives a peak-to-peak number for this model, halved here to the 22.5 mm one-way figure used in the math, which is why this model builds while other Ground Zero models with no stated basis do not. Ground Zero does not publish the mounting hole locations for the GZRW 12XSPL, so we cannot install the threaded inserts before it ships. The threaded insert kit comes in the box instead: 8 to 12 inserts sized to the woofer, the correct drill bit, 2.5 inch allen-head screws, an allen key and woofer gasket tape. You set the inserts when you mount the woofer; one kit serves one woofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe numbers to respect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eSet a 28 Hz subsonic filter, 24 dB per octave.
