Power Acoustik BASS-12C

Installed with an Alpine head unit, Lanzar 4ch amp, MB Quart satellite speakers and a single Kicker C10 sub. Installation was straight forward but tuning was a bit of a challenge. All the crossover frequencies, bass and treble settings and gain levels needed constant tweaking for weeks after to get rid of an odd "boominess" and/or overly shrill highs that were affected by music choice. It is fine now as long as I'm not listening to talk radio.

Compared to the “Audio Control Epicenter” in a friends Sierra it is a much, MUCH better overall value.

Price was fair, shipping was fast and customer service was top shelf.

I had one hooked to a pioneer deck, a hifonics brutus bx1205D, with a power acoustic mofo 15". Installation was a breeze but getting it set took about 30-40 mins and 4 different cds. But after bangin it real good for 10 mins it fried and fried my rca heads on my deck.

i can't say i would recommend this, i wanted one for a long time (model before this one). So when i needed a line drive also i got this. Well for starters it was good on adjusting bass levels but i hated that the subsonic lowest was set at 35hz when my subs are made to handle 20hz. i really noticed a difference in some songs the bass i use to hear was cut out. Then after a 3 months of use and a hot summer it died.

This thing brings out the bass notes that you were not aware of, which is cool. Not bad for the price. Unfortunately, there is one downfall. Once your engine is on, there is the irritating engine noise that pops its head up. I tried removing the audio cables from the unit and the noise would go, but as soon as it is attached to the amp, here is the noise. I tried installing a noise filter on it, but it only turned it down a little. Now, each time I open the door, i get an extra ping through the speakers and when I turn off the vehicle, there is this temporary hum that filters through the system until tthe unit powers off. No ground selector on teh unit as mentioned in the manual either. But for the price, what the hec...

this is great for music with no bass.
you can add as much as you want at the tip of your fingers with the knob.

it lights up with the bass!
