The Hideaway HS12 is a compact powered 12-inch subwoofer that delivers surprising low frequency impact in a tough, all-aluminum frame.

FIT PLUS
KICKER innovates once again, with FIT+™ (Fail-safe Integration Technology PLUS). Accepting input signals ranging from a mere 0.25 volt to as high as 40 volts (400 watts at 4Ω) and fully compatible with newer vehicles using start/stop systems, the HS12 works with almost any vehicle on the road today without the added expense of a line output converter.

ROCKIN’ REMOTE
The included remote control allows you to change the amount of bass without changing the radio volume, for the perfect mixture of bass in your music at any volume.
If you have two mono amps or powered subwoofers, check out the DBRC Remote for controlling both from the same knob.

FULLY LOADED
The Hideaway comes with an adjustable low-pass crossover, variable +6dB bass boost, phase switch, and two auto turn-on options: DC-offset or signal sensing.

FANTASTIC FIT
The robust 12-inch powered enclosure delivers more power and a bigger impact than the 10-inch or 8-inch, and STILL fits under the seat.

MAKE YOUR SOUND EXPERIENCE EVEN BETTER
For even more bass response and next-level audio, run two HS12s and control them both with the KICKER DBRC Dual-Amp Bass Remote!
