Customer Testimonial

SONIC has the best prices, and fast shipping. This was my second purchase. This time I got new Front & Rear speakers for my truck. I installed them the day they arrived and they sound great. No need to ever go anywhere else looking for equiptment.

I would recommend this subwoofer to a beginner in car stereo work. It adds the extra depth that makes music sound great, while still being extremely affordable and reliable. I am impressed with this product. I would recommend that more serious users would look to a more upscale product, though, because it does have a tendency to become distorted at higher volumes.

i have 2 of these in a ported box powered by a pioneer g5300t amp. the amp pushes them at 125x2 at 4 in a 98 cherokee. i would definately recommend this subs to anyone who wants to hit nicely on a budget. these subs will shake my rearview mirror a little. they can rattle parts of my house when im parked in front of it.
