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 bought two of these brand new. I have a 800 Polkaudio Amp and an Xslice Capacitor. These hit hard but maintain it so you can still hear the words of the song. I build my own box and i drive a 98 Chevy Extended Cab s10. So i found a custom box runnin 1.97 cubic feet per sub so i tweeked it bring it down to 1.60 sealed which is .30 over the minumum. I absolutely love it. I cant wait to get insurance and get my starter fixed so i can go show these off. The guy who owned the truck before me was a complete idiot. I rewired the whole stereo and even put all my Extra Audio (subs and amp) on a toggle switch mounted in my dash. Quick on-off thing. I am lookin for some better treble so if you have any ideas on what i should get mounted in my doors email me. jathanrawls@gmail.com

I just got this sub today, and I love it. Its perfect for what I want. It shakes the trunk, and the mirrors, but doesn't make it sound like my car is about to fall apart. All in all, this sub is LOUD. I have it hooked up to a Planet Audio AC1000, bridged down and it sounds amazing. I bought mine in a JL Audio basswedge ported box, so it sounds even better, but I got it for sale for 200$, spent 500 dollars on everything including install and shop charge.



EXCELLENT SUBWOOFER!

Everything about this sub is AMAZING. I had one of these hooked up to a Rockford Fosgate R150-2 in my last ride. It was very affordable and VERY loud. I had a chip on my windshield and watched it split when seeing how loud it would go. I plan on buying this again in the future and would recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade their system.

You cant go wrong with these babies, they really do sound good. I hooked them up to the Kenwood 7205 purchased at this website along with the subs. I previously had the Kenwood 9104D paired up with the some 3012s and let me tell you that by changing to this set up, their is a considerable amount of difference in sound quality. Although their is a trick to getting a high quality system, this is what my system consist of. Kenwood X794 HeadUnit, Kenwood 8404 for mids and tweets, Kenwood 7205 for Subs, 2 JL Audio 12WOv2-4, Kicker DS6930 6x9s, MTX 6502s and the stock tweets powered by yellow top optima battery with 0 gauge wire from Kicker. the reason that I used the stock tweets for the simple reason is that stock tweets are just that tweets,



I had a component set by focal and it sounded good but when I replaced them with this set up I was surprised by how much the the sound quality was enhanced. I guess what I'm trying to say is don't be afraid to experiment with your system, sometimes you don't always get what you pay for, some of the stock tweets that they use now days are better than those you pay a arm and a leg for. 2006 Chevy Montecarlo.
