Extremely satisfied. on audio and video accessories

Excellent quality. The sizes are obvious, but don't let the size fool you. It's quite powerful and has great sound quality. It doesn't have the bass power of a big suitcase, but it balances out the low frequencies that I was missing. A bit like the bass effect of a cinema sound system (I think). Fits perfectly behind the back seat of my 02 Silverado 2500hd 4-door crew cab and there isn't much room in the back.

Pros
  • High quality workmanship
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

Decent bass in a small package

I use my Subaru Legacy for maintenance so I needed as much boot space as possible. Installation was easy. I installed mine on a 40% split backrest and it doesn't bother. Bass is more than enough for me, it punches through but doesn't wake up the neighbors. It fills the niche of low frequencies that standard speakers can't reproduce. I had no problems the week I used it. I will update in a few months.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Not the best

Scared but glad I bought it.

This subwoofer is really impressive. I was wary of buying a compact subwoofer but have been using Vega products for many years with good results. Look, it's not a pair of 12-inchers, but what a punch for a self-powered 10-incher. Very impressed with its overall performance and quality. Its brushed aluminum body looks great and all controls are easily accessible (this thing is built like a tank). Definitely recommended and would buy again.

Pros
  • Outstanding overall performance
Cons
  • Something different

Loud but VERY boomy

I had high hopes. Love the idea of a low profile subwoofer under my seat. Physics, unfortunately. I was hoping that some advances in DSP or acoustics would allow a 10" woofer to work in such a small enclosure. I was wrong. The sound is exactly what you would expect from a small case: underdamped Q-factor leads to poor frequency response and booming mid-bass. It's noisy, so if that's what you're looking for, you might like it. Don't expect better bass response from it, though.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Nothing

Sounds great and fits in tight spaces

Let me start this review by saying that the previous sound system I had was a 10 inch 250 watt subwoofer with a 250 watt amplifier was. So I'm used to a small sub. It sounds almost identical. The only place it falls short is in the fast, punchy bass. Like a bass drum on a drum kit. Otherwise it's great. Good low end, more than enough for my 2009 GMC Canyon Crew Cab. If you are used to a 12 inch 600w subwoofer you will be disappointed. But if you simply want more bass while taking up less space,

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Expensive

Designed like a tank and works like one ๐Ÿค›

Reliable speaker, small but powerful. Add just the right amount of bass without touching the rearview mirror. Happy with the purchase! 3 Month Update: Speakers still sound great but overheating and shutting down. I set the gain to medium so I don't stress too much. After about 1 hour of continuous playback, it will turn off for about 20 minutes before restarting. I also installed in a well ventilated area. Again it sounds great when running, I just wish the thermals were better rated which isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Overall ok but...

Customer service not good

I bought 2 of these and they sounded great until one stopped working very upset and when you call support you start running they tell you that you have to deal with Revain, and Revain tells you to deal with the company! I installed both on a brand new 2 din stereo with separate amp kits and they sounded AMAZING but stopped working after 5 months! Won't do anything, I've checked fuses, swapped wire connections and RCA plugs and I've got nothing, maybe it's a defective unit because the other oneโ€ฆ

Pros
  • dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Great all in one setting.

I put it under the back seat of a 2019 Ram 1500 with Anc. I plugged it in and bypassed the noise-canceling system by placing the mics under the driver's seat. If you don't do this on new RAM with this system, the subwoofer will make a loud feedback noise when you move it. The truck is no louder than with anc enabled. i don't miss it The subwoofer is very well made and sounds fantastic. I've compared it to the factory subwoofer that comes with high end trucks but not mine and it sounds betterโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Pleasantly surprised

I'll start this review by saying I'm not a fan of powered subwoofers. I prefer a separate amp and cabinet. I put one of these in the trunk of my '98 Cherokee. I didn't want a full size box because I use a Cherokee as a beach wagon. Things are thrown unsystematically into the background. But I needed bass. I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality and the sound quality this baby makes. If you're expecting it to sound like a 10" in the box, then this subwoofer isn't for you. It doesn't have

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
