I installed these in my friends truck on the RE audio dts 1500 and that amp really makes these things quake. Box tuned to 34 hz and they get down. Great speaker for the price.

I have two of these in a sealed Ground Shaker box on a RE Audio 500.2 amp at 2 ohms only about 80 watts each and they rattle the trunk of my 2001 Buick Century. Loud even at low power.

I have 2 P3s hooked up to a SSL EV2000.2 wired at 4 ohms and 350 RMS to each sub. With only that much wattage, it still bumps pretty hard. I just bought a RF t1000-1bdcp amp and that puts out up to 1500+ RMS x 1 @ 1 ohm. I cant wait to see what these things will be able to do with doubled the rms. I highly recommend these woofers. Even with a smaller amp, they still bump harddd. Highly recommended. Go with RF for everything.

I have a extended cab ford ranger with Rockford fosgate t1 door speakers in each door and two in their own boxes behind the seat, along with one Rockford F. P3d4 12" in a huge custom built box with two ports that are over 5 feet, my brother built who is basically a professional. In my town, everybody who has listened to my system has said that it is the best-sounding and hardest-hitting one they have ever heard, even people who have paid thousands for a professional system. I will never buy another brand of speakers or amps. Rockford Fosgate slams, and when I say slams, I mean people can hear me coming from a longggggg way off.

Ive had my system build complete for almost 2 months now and i couldnt be happier. This is my second Rockford Fosgate build ive done, and I proudly sponsor their name across my back windshield. I have 2 of the subs in a ported enclosure, and it makes my entire car flex. If you want nice clean punchy sounding bass, Rockford Fosgate's stage 3 subs are the way to go.

Needed a replacement for the Type R subs I kept blowing and decided to try this one.

The P3 trumps the Type R in terms of musical accuracy, it reproduces subtle bass frequencies that the Type R misses. While the Type R produces a little more extreme bass, I prefer the P3, hands down. It sounds terrifi (and its cheaper to boot)

I bought 2 of these after returning 2 Pioneer Champion Pro series 12's 1000w rms. I wanted more punch from kick drums and bass hits. These totally took care of that! The punch is amazing. They're extremely powerful. I'm feeding them (claimed) 2000w rms from an Autotek Mean Machine 4000.1d. I know the amp is overrated that's why im okay with it. These things are LOUD. Great response and SQ.

However, for me.. the lows aren't all that great. I mean LOW bass like under 45hz. This might be because i have them in a 1.3 cubic foot box even though the recommended is 1.8.

All in all i'm extremely happy with them. Loud, responsive, and great SQ.

I've owned the p3's in 10s and 12s and they are loud with good sq. I also run rockford amps on all my systems. You can def tell a difference between RF amps and another brand. Most brands overate there wattage and don't come with a real birth sheet of their products like RF, they may be pricey but not ridiculous, i guess u get what u pay for? PS i liked the look of the older models.

These are one of the best speakers i have ever owned when it comes to subs. They are strong and powerful subs. I have not hooked them up yet because i only have one now, and have one on the way. But i do know they will pound, because i already have two p2 12's in my 2011 camaro in a sealed box and they hit hard, and i do not even have my bass knob control up. it is on -8. however, when i install these monsters you will hear from me soon. oh by the way i recommend that you buy these subs from Sonic Electronix, they beat the price by far of other sellers. I went to audio midwest and they wanted 247 dollars for one of these. i got two of them for 264 dollars at Sonic Eletronix can you believe that? This is the place to shop for your car audio my friend.

I purchase 2 P3's about two weeks ago and put them in my Tahoe. I have them in a ported box wired down to 1 ohm with a Hifonic 2000watt amp behind them. The low end that they produce is round and accurate to the note. For these to produce that much sound you can't beat the price. I've told my friends that they need to upgrade their subs and get these.

I just got these about a week ago and WOW! Got 2 on a Hifonics Brutus 1200.1 @ 1 ohm and they hit hard, loud, yet clean. I know these bad boys can take much more than they're rated. The gain is a little over half and the sound is incredible and they're barely moving! Maybe moving up to a larger amp in the future but I'm more than satisfied for now.

Im loving this sub! Right now I have it in a ported box wired down to 2ohms on my old fosgate amp and at 300watts. It's bumpin' in the back of my lincoln. Definitely going to get a bigger amp and another one of these! I always recomnd Rockford Fosgate to people who aren't sure what to get because they sound good and bump hard. By-the-way, this sub is pretty big so you might have to do some work to get it to fit in boxes you get from Sonic.

This Sub sounds awesome in my Mitsubishi 3000 GT. I installed it in a non ported box because I like mostly Rock music and a tight bass sound. This sub performs beyond my expectations in price and quality. Thanks Sonic.

Ive had Punch subs in the past, not any top of the line Punch but i know and have heard all lines of Punch subs since they have started. I love this dual voice sub and it sounds very powerful and clean. I have it in a sealed enclosure in my accord which sounds better in that vehicle to me than ported. Sonic has great service and the best prices.

I just purchased this sub. I replace an older model Alpine type R12. There was nothing wrong with the alpine, but I just wanted to switch things up. I searched through all of the higher end subs that Sonic sells, and I kept coming back to this one. For 144 bucks I thought what the heck, I'll give it a try. I've known of Fosgate for a long time, but I didn't know what I was missing out on! I'm running one of these subs in a 1.20 cubic foot sealed box on a 600 W rms pioneer amp. So far from what I can tell, this sub will take a lot more juice then what I'm feeding it. For one 12 on 600 watts, this sub is hitting pretty hard. I'm thinking of putting my old MTX thunder 6500d on it and seeing how much louder it will get! You will not be disappointed with this sub. Trust me. Only gave it one star for durability because I haven't had it long enough to find out, although it seems pretty tough, especially with an aluminum cone. Oh yeah, and fosgate is an AMERICAN company!

So I got this sub with the intentions to slam. It is a very good sub and it hits hard im not going to lie. I have it hooked up to a hifonics D.1000 at 2 ohms and its in a sonic ported box. IF you could get a very large ported box for this than it would slam. But overall great buy and I'm looking to get one more in the feature forsure.

These things BANG! Only my second pair of subs but damn, what a difference. Wired to a Rockford Fosgate P1000-1bd bought off Sonic Electronix for way cheaper than Rockford is asking for it.
Very fast shipping and it was free. Also the cheap prices can't beat it. Saved $200 by buying a set of these on this website vs. Rockford once again. Also bought the wiring from Sonic Electronix for about half the price. Thank you SonicElectronix for saving me a butt load of money and the great service. Will definitely be returning and buying again!
