NEW PRV Audio 12MB2000FT-NDY Forte Series 12" Neodymium Midbass Speaker 8 Ohm

PRV AudioPart # 294-2776
Model: 12MB2000FT-NDY

The PRV Audio 12MB2000FT-NDY is a 12″ neodymium mid-bass speaker built for high-output custom door panels. It’s designed to deliver linear vocal clarity and strong punch down to around 80 Hz without demanding large enclosures. This model is part of the Forte Series, where power handling and low distortion are priorities.

Key Features

  • High sensitivity of 99.5 dB ensuring loud output with less drive
  • Large neodymium magnet motor with Thermoblade heatsink to reduce power compression
  • Double roll surround and special paper cone for linear mid-range and vocal clarity
  • Excursion (~1.50″ peak-to-peak) enabled by tall voice coil for controlled midbass punch
  • Compact profile for its power: suitable for custom doors, blending performance with manageable size
  • Rigid cast aluminum frame with side forced cooling for thermal stability under high power loads

Overview

PRV Audio 12MB2000FT-NDY Forte Series 12" Neodymium Midbass Speaker 8 Ohm

PRV Audio 12MB2000FT-NDY Forte Series 12" Neodymium Midbass Speaker 8 Ohm

The PRV 12MB2000FT-NDY was designed for custom doors, delivering a lightweight and compact 12″ midbass driver built for high performance in custom door panels. 

It provides an exceptionally linear response, clearly shown in its frequency graph, with nearly flat vocal output that delivers accurate music reproduction across a wide frequency range. 

Strong midbass punch extends cleanly down to 80 Hz, supported by its high Xmax, making it a great choice for ported cabinet systems that demand high BL magnet force and solid midbass or for custom door installations. 

This driver is a standout addition to the Forte Series, focused on higher power handling and reduced distortion in the mid to low midbass range.

  • 2000 watts continuous program power RMS for high acoustic output 
  • Ventilated voice coil gap with THERMOBLADE magnet heatsink minimizes power compression 
  • High BL factor and Xmax deliver powerful low frequency output 
  • Exceptionally linear response provides accurate music reproduction across a wide frequency range, 99.5 dB sensitivity 
  • 12″ PRO audio neodymium midbass loudspeaker designed for low frequencies at high power in custom door panels

Crafted with a paper cone made from a high strength pulp blend, this driver is engineered for maximum linearity in the mid frequency range. A specialized cone treatment enhances the damping characteristics of the moving assembly, resulting in improved vocal response. 

This midbass is built to endure years of demanding professional use. 

The double roll surround maintains linear cone movement even at high excursion, delivering outstanding vocal clarity and detail while producing powerful, dynamic midbass punch.

The rigid cast aluminum frame is specially designed with side cooling openings that direct airflow across the voice coil. 

A massive neodymium motor assembly is fitted with a THERMOBLADE heatsink, dissipating heat at an exceptional rate to handle up to 2000 watts RMS with ease. 

The oversized neodymium motor provides ample space for the tall voice coil to move at high excursion, allowing the cone to reach about 1.50″ peak-to-peak travel for powerful impact.

With its silicone spider, this speaker handles high excursion tones while preserving sound quality, delivering powerful low frequency performance along with clear and defined vocals. 

The suspension system provides excellent control at large excursions and manages short bursts of excess power without damage.

Its balance of weight, size, and performance makes it the ideal door speaker for a 2-way door panel when paired with the D3220Ti-Nd.

Recommended Amplifier configurations and crossover points: 

2 Speakers – 1x QS5000 at 2 Ohm, 2 speakers in parallel
4 Speakers – 1x QS7000 at 2 Ohm, 4 speakers in parallel
8 Speakers – 1x QS16000 at 1 Ohm, 8 speakers in parallel 

Recommended HPF using PRV Digital Signal Processor DSP when using up to 2000 Watts RMS musical power ( without clipping ) 

85 Hz at 12 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT1280 Hz at 18 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT18

If you have compression drivers on your system the recommended LPF is 2,800Hz at 18 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT18 but you may set it lower to blend in better depending on the other components in your system.

    •  *Nominal power handling is defined as the maximum RMS power that the speaker can handle in a 2-hour test with a pink noise with 6dB of crest factor and a bandpass filter with 12db/oct tuned in its usable frequency range. 
    **Continuous Program Power (RMS) is the maximum power that the speaker can handle considering a regular musical program using our recommended filters, this power can be used to define the optimum amplifier power to provide a clean signal without clipping or saturation. 
    ***Max Peak Power is the maximum power operation for the speaker, this power is allowed just for a few fractions of a second, usually found just on the peaks of the music. Keeping this power for a little longer timer will damage the speaker.
