Installed this in my 2010 Subaru Legacy to replace the horrible sounding factory Harman Kardon sub. This one is great, especially if you like SQ! Hits hard, fast, and you can feel it. Very accurate sound, and a great price! Get it.

This puppy, pushes 350RMS, I have two powered on a 1200 peak amp, they really get the job done, after a while you should turn it down though, because it gets extremely loud!!!
