Pretty amazing speaker. Good to fill in the gap between your components and sub. I have a Toyota 4runner and have 2 installed in the back panels and work real well for a mid-bass speaker.

Installed in a BMW 325i to replace the oem subs underneath the front seats. Not much room under the seats, but the SWS-8X fit nicely. Note to others that the box must be sealed to really enjoy all that the subs can provide.
