Key Features of the Power Acoustik BAMF-104
Powerful Bass Performance
The BAMF-104 is built to deliver earth-shaking bass, with a maximum power handling of 3,200 watts and 1,600 watts RMS. Its 3-inch 4-layer voice coil, constructed on an aluminum former, handles high power levels with thermal stability, ensuring consistent performance during intense playback. The subwoofer’s 83.5 dB sensitivity, 40.2 Hz resonance frequency, and 14 mm Xmax provide deep, resonant low frequencies, making it perfect for bass-heavy music genres like hip-hop, EDM, and rock, as well as SPL competitions.
Durable and Advanced Construction
Designed for extreme conditions, the BAMF-104 features a non-transfer spruce pulp cone that delivers precise bass reproduction while maintaining structural integrity. The polyether foam surround supports extended excursion, allowing the subwoofer to handle significant cone movement for powerful output. The overcompensating motor structure, with high-density magnetic inertia, ensures robust performance, while the vented T-yoke and 12mm T-yoke and top plate enhance heat dissipation. The cast aluminum basket provides a rigid foundation, minimizing distortion during high-volume playback.
Optimized for Ported Enclosures
The BAMF-104 is engineered for maximum bass output in ported enclosures, with a recommended volume of 1.25 ft³ for deep, resonant sound. It can also perform in sealed enclosures (0.75 ft³) for tighter, more controlled bass, offering versatility for various audio preferences. The 6-inch mounting depth and 9.125-inch cutout diameter ensure compatibility with most vehicle subwoofer enclosures, while the dual 4-ohm voice coils allow flexible wiring configurations (2-ohm or 8-ohm) for compatibility with a wide range of amplifiers, including Power Acoustik’s SABER or BAMF series.
