Anything But Entry Level
What RE Audio calls entry level is anything but entry level. Introducing the new REX series. It offers incredible output and distortion free sound you would come to expect from subs costing far more. REX car subwoofers are perfect for those just entering the car audio scene. Popular among the import and other cars where weight is important, these lightweight subwoofers are an excellent solution for performance vehicles that can’t have heavy subwoofers with large boxes. The mica filled poly cone is stiff and rigid, while the Santoprene rubber surround allows excellent response. Behind the cone is a high temperature 8-layer copper voice coil, a FEA optimized motor structure, and a conex spider that all assist in the linearity of the subwoofer when in use. With a RMS power handling of only 175 watts, these subwoofers do not require a large, powerful amplifier. However, like all of the RE Audio subwoofers, they are capable of accepting much more power then the recommended RMS. For an entry level subwoofer that is far beyond all the other entry-level subwoofers, trust the RE Audio RES series of car subwoofers to bring great bass in your car.

WOW! So i hadnt really heard too much about RE before but i was looking for a cheap sub to hold me off until i could afford a better quality woofer. now, i dont have to get a better quality woofer! for 45$ shipped, you will not find a better sub than this. 175 watts RMS my ass! this little monster will easily handle more as long as you know what you're doing. great bass, relatively shallow mounting depth, great company but priced the same as those cheap china knock offs, what more could you possibly want! all for $45!!!!!!
I'm now an RE fan for life!!!!

I needed a sub for my car that would give me decent bass and weigh as little as possible. I tried the REX8D4 figuring that for $49.00 I couldn't go wrong. Was I ever amazed at what this sub can do!! I built a .35 cu. ft. box for it and lined the interior with .75" of three layer Sonic Barrier and it's getting 150 watts at 2ohms.
After spending an hour of listening to various types of music, I found this sub to hit just as hard as the REX10D4 and it goes just as low (about 30Hz). The best part is, it can be crossed over as high as 125 Hz and will give you suberb mid bass as well as the lowest of frequencies. The transient response is fantastic, it does not sound muddy at all and the best part is it does all this at very high SPL levels!!
This sub is a great buy and will not disappoint you in any way!!!

Great looking sub. Material cone and surround is made of seems to be of good quality, my biggest complaint of this sub is the cheap hookups for the speaker wire. Upon installation one of the negative legs broke on me. for a few bucks extra they could have used a better quality connector.
I used this sub to replace the factory 8 in my 02 yukon. It is powered by the factory amp and sounds decent for what it is but i do not believe it would take much more than 100-125 watts. It will do for now but honestly i wish i had shelled out a few extra bucks and got a better sub.

I have this run in parallel on an MTX terminator amp. Gains about halfway and this little 8" hits harder than some 10s I've heard. I have it in a sealed box, which it's really not even designed for, and it still sounds great. Very clear, solid bass. And for $50, you really can't go wrong. It does tend to bark a bit at higher volumes, but I'm thinking that's me. I keep forgetting it's an 8".

I bought this sub for my wife's Pacifica. She wanted a little more low end but nothing that takes up as much room as my Punch 15. I put it in a 1 cubic foot box tuned to 30hz and it truly amazed me. It sounds so much better than the 15 (nearly as loud, plays way deeper) that I don't think the wife is getting this one back. I want to sell the 15 now and buy 4 more of these.
Definitely recommend. I'd recommend this at twice the price. Maybe the best sounding sub I've ever owned.
