Get that “Big Bottom” with the HIPPO Subwoofers When Massive Audio designed the “HIPPO” Series Subwoofers we had one thing we wanted out of the design. No junk for a trunk just a subwoofer with a “Big Bottom.” All three Hippo Series subwoofers 8”, 12” and 15” are truly giant works of art that can slam! These big bottomed boys use 3” over sized voice coils that hold 4000 Watts of power, extra deep diamond polished cast aluminum baskets, double stacked Strontium Magnets and Kevlar Fiber Reinforced Non-Pressed Paper Cones that has a industrial machined stitched edge right into the cone’s surround for added strength. To feed a 2013 HIPPO Massive Audio recommends 500 – 2000 RMS of raw power. You can cage a HIPPO in a sealed box as small as .375 cub. Ft for Hippo 8, 1 cub.
