Kenwood KSC-SW10

Just upgraded my stock speakers in my 2001 Neon to some Kickers. I already had a nice Sony 52x4 radio, it's the reason I wanted better than stock speakers. Sounds very clear and defined but lacked bass. I decided to look into some Subs. I had no interest in the big bass subs I've heard around town when someone who has one pulls up next to me. I always get irritated and think they sound like crap. I wanted something that gives balanced clean bass and wouldn't shake the nuts and bolts off my car and alert everyone in town I joined the big bass club. I'm too old for that crap. Anyway, I looked here for subs, read reviews and decided on this Kenwood. I was crossing my fingers hoping I wasn't going to be disappointed. Got it and was pretty happy with what I saw. Looked well made and everything to hook it up was included. Put it in the back floorboard (wouldn't fit under the seat). Hooked it up and it gave me just what I wanted and what I was missing, clean bass. My system sounds so much better now, it's like brand new and never sounded this good. Lots of adjustments with the sub remote and existing settings that I can now play with all over again cause everything is different. I'm very satisfied with this purchase. It's not 2 12's but that's not what I wanted anyway.

Would recommend product if you are looking for an upgrade to your existing receiver/speakers. It will not, as previously stated, "boom" like some low life, "look at me", urban assault vehicle. It provides adequate bass, but wil not deafen you. Best placed onboard in the cabin. I installed mine in the arm rest pull down in my BMW 3 series by removing the ski door pass through.

For a self-contained amp/sub its not bad to install, the overall sound value is still lacking, but that could be placement on my part. As I had no sub in my Toyota Highlander, this at least adds some moderate bass. I am not using stock radio, I use a Pioneer head which has sub outs.

This little woofer sounds pretty nice at low volume, but can't handle being turned up. It often bottoms out when I've the volume up (even just loud enough to get over engine noise) and on songs with lots of bass it sounds over worked. Save your money and get a real subwoofer!

I put this unit in my 1993 Miata (right behind the passenger seat). I was wanting a small system that wasn't to much and didn't shake the car to pieces. Found it on the daily deal a month ago and it was perfect. Gives a good clear sound with music but dosnt sound to well with rap and hip hop (this probly because my old Sony radio dosnt have a subwoofer out, so its plugged into the rear). But the remote makes for easy adjusting. Didn't have to screw or bolt it down, held down with velcro and the seat pressing it back. Great system only draw back was how much wire that was giving for it. (gives you enough to put in an RV).
