Excellent upgrade for stock Dodge subwoofers

Replaced the stock subwoofer with Polk DB8 - after a few days hiatus the sound became much cleaner than the stock subwoofer - tighter on fast bass and doesn't distort on heavy rock bass. Great update from stock.

Pros
  • nice touch
Cons
  • safety

High quality many times smaller than the original

Installed on my Lexus 430. Replaced a broken Mark Levinson. This replacement is much better than the original. Correct wiring must be ensured during installation. Instructions are included.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Other Other

LS430 Lexus, it's a win-win upgrade from an inferior ML woofer

I bought this to replace a factory original ML woofer. It required some modifications to the mount to fit. Difference. the crossover received 7.2 ohms. The original amp still rocks.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Functionality

Don't buy until the price falls.

Decent subwoofer for entry level or factory upgrade. I bought this over 6 months ago and it has been reliable and has held up well. Just don't expect ultra-deep bass and expect to have to trim the box down a bit as the cable connectors are too close to the mounting points. Overall I would say they are worth it for the $59 price I bought them for but not worth the $79. There are better options if you spend a little more.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some problems

I was disappointed at first, but in the end I was satisfied!

I used this to replace an existing subwoofer in my caravan (Forrest River Cherokee) and was initially disappointed. It originally plugged into the subwoofer RCA jacks on a Kenwood head unit and never got very loud. Then I did a little research and decided to add a cheap monoblock amp and it helped. I'm sure you know he's here now and I'm perfectly happy. Also decided on the marine option most of the time because of the humidity in the motorhome. The old sub was a bit rusty and I decided it was…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

not recommended for lexus ls 430 replacement

i can't say anything bad about this speaker. However if you are buying this to replace a burned out ML subwoofer in your Lexus be aware that this speaker will only read 6.5 ohms in series at open circuit. The Ml amp is designed for a 12 ohm speaker and you run the risk of overheating the amp with this speaker (especially if you like to run loud). I discussed this at length with a friend who has been in the AV industry for 20 years and he said it would work until your amp fails. The ML amplifier

Pros
  • nice packaging
Cons
  • don't remember
