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.

I've got 2 12" of these with a Hitron 2000 watt amp and these slap! Neighbors complain of their car alarms going off. These cracked my rear window. Great value. Sure there are some better ones but for the price these slap! Recommend these as starters or if you want deep resonant bass.
