The PS Audio Foundry F12 is a sealed-enclosure subwoofer designed to deliver reference-quality bass with emphasis on control, accuracy, and seamless integration rather than maximum output. It features a completely original 12-inch driver with over 2.5 inches of throw, a paper cone with carbon fiber dust cap, and a 10-inch graduated Nomex spider. The subwoofer includes a built-in 1000-watt continuous high-current amplifier powered by an 1800-watt power supply. The Foundry control app (iOS/Android) provides comprehensive DSP room correction, allowing users to compensate for room peaks and dips through manual adjustment or automatic EQ function. The design prioritizes clean, articulate bass reproduction with fast transient response and minimal distortion, making it suitable for both music and home theater applications. Optional wireless connectivity via WiSA E (24-bit/96kHz) and stacking capabilities are available.
