Not bad for car electronics

Sounds better than you think. Bass isn't deep, but high bass sounds good. It's just a 10" flat mount. You can't expect much. Costs money? Yes.

Pros
  • Super price
Cons
  • Ok for the most part, but...

Wow!. It was unexpected!

For such a small speaker and box I wasn't expecting much. Boy was I surprised that this little thing HIT. No, it won't rumble on the floor or anything, but it will give you some really BIG bass. A HUGE improvement over our standard stereo and at such a low price. I wish I had had this in high school ;-)

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Some bugs

Good price: subwoofer

At the risk of voiding the warranty I opened up the 10" version to see what I'm working with (see image). The 10" speaker has a good magnet size and appears to be of good quality.The fuse is 25 amps and judging by the energy of this subwoofer it seems to be working to its full potential.There were a few questions about the wiring kit and it doesn't come with the actual kit but with a remote gain control and a high level input jack.You will need the actual wiring harness to install it in your…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Almost ok

Block DOA - Might be worth spending a little more on something else

Installed on a Mazda MPV - that's right, not my first rodeo. The van has premium sound so I just wanted to use the factory subwoofer for the low mids and this one for the mids - just a few Hz more resonance. Annoyingly, the unit goes into protected mode at any volume above 20% - this is with the main unit on default settings and with zero gain, no pass filter and zero gain. So basically it's just a bad block. It's kind of a blessing in disguise as the van is now hooked up to a subwoofer - just…

Adds a nice kick to any system

OK - works great behind/right under my BMW 135i E88 Convertible. I wanted more "bang for your buck" than the standard Premium system, but without taking away the already small trunk (top to bottom) that I had with the traditional system. Works very well, I'm 100% satisfied. It won't rumble to a nearby car, and if that's important you'll need a much larger system. Since mine sits on the floor behind the driver's seat and shoots up - it sounds great to the driver and you can feel the beat! Mini…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Doubtful

Good price with good sound

First, it didn't fit under the seat of my 05 Outback. And it comes with bass console and hi-lo input, no other wiring. The construction makes a very solid impression. Being a 10" with so much power it definitely adds some punchy bass. Any standard setup in an old car will sound better out of the box. It definitely doesn't have as much "big" response as I'm due of the flat case/amp. You definitely start to lose response around 60Hz and below. It just doesn't move that much air. Also, very poor…

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Some small things

This is not a real 10 " speaker!

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned that this is not a real 10" speaker! I bought 2 of these to put under the back seats of one to fit Jeep Grand Cherokee and paired them with a Sony XAV-AX3000 I use OEM speakers for this and Alpine 250W RMS x4 Obviously the installation is silly simple just a couple of wires to connect but after installation was done I was completely dissatisfied, the sound was below average to say the least, to the point that I would get more bass out of my speakers than these…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Repair
