Subwoofers — Mission ZX-12 Sub

The ZX-12 Sub is a powered subwoofer from Mission, sitting above the brand's MS-10 Sub and MS-200 Sub with substantially greater internal amplification. The ZX-12 Sub brings Mission's considered engineering to a more capable dedicated bass-reinforcement tier.

Key specs that matter

Rated response spans 35Hz to 120Hz. Internal amplification delivers a substantial 450W - considerably more than Mission's smaller MS-series subwoofers. At 49.8 x 40.0 x 46.5cm and 23kg, the ZX-12 Sub represents a genuine step up in scale from Mission's more accessible subwoofer models.

Sound and use context

Expect controlled, authoritative bass reinforcement reflecting the substantial 450W amplification, suited to extending a main speaker system's low-frequency reach with genuine additional impact over Mission's smaller subwoofers.

Pairing

As a self-powered subwoofer, the ZX-12 Sub connects to a preamplifier, integrated amplifier or AV receiver's subwoofer output directly, working alongside a broader main-speaker system.

Alternatives

Mission's own MS-10 Sub and MS-200 Sub sit below this model at more accessible scale and power, worth considering instead if the ZX-12 Sub's considerable ambition exceeds what a specific room requires.
