Paradigm Garden Oasis 12SW

The Paradigm GO12SW redefines the outdoor audio experience. This outdoor subwoofer combines exceptional sound performance, unparalleled durability, and visual discretion. Designed for discerning music lovers who want to enjoy audiophile-quality sound in their garden, on their patio, or around their pool, the GO12SW pushes the boundaries of what is possible in outdoor audio.

A Revolutionary Design

The GO12SW stands out with its unique design. Unlike traditional subwoofers, it is designed to be buried in your garden or under your patio. Only a discreet “chimney” remains visible, blending harmoniously with your outdoor landscape. This innovative approach not only preserves the aesthetics of your space but also optimizes acoustic performance.

The speaker is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with an impressive thickness of 14.3 cm. This material, commonly used in underground piping systems, offers exceptional resistance to impacts, temperature variations, and humidity. The GO12SW is thus built to last, even in the harshest environments.

Uncompromising Audio Performance

At the heart of the GO12SW is a 31 cm diameter driver, specially designed to deliver deep and precise bass in outdoor settings. Its mica-loaded polypropylene cone, combined with a nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) stitched surround, ensures sound reproduction that is both powerful and nuanced.

The oversized 6.35 cm voice coil, composed of four layers on a fiberglass former, allows the GO12SW to handle a maximum input power of 500 watts. This robust design translates into an impressive frequency response of 28 Hz to 120 Hz (±3 dB), with bass extension reaching 24 Hz. In practice, this means you can feel the deepest bass of your music, even outdoors.

Built to Withstand Anything

The GO12SW has been designed to withstand the most extreme weather conditions. It has been successfully tested in environments ranging from -29°C to 85°C, ensuring optimal performance regardless of the season. Its buried design naturally protects it from the elements, while its “chimney” ventilation system ensures efficient cooling and water protection.

This exceptional durability allows the GO12SW to remain in place year-round without requiring seasonal disassembly. You can enjoy high-quality outdoor sound at any time, whether for a summer evening by the pool or an outdoor movie night on a crisp autumn evening.
