I bought this sub from a friend of mine and it didn't fit in my trunk opening in my car. So I sold it to one of my other friends. I installed it for him. This thing pounds. It is only an entry level sub but its amazing. It has very clear bass. I plugged it to a two channel lightning Audio amp. I bridged it and it is getting about 250 watts rms. I couldn't find anyway to distort the bass. I turned the gain and cross over up the whole way, and the bass was still very clear, but that isn't good for it so I turned it down some. Overall this is one of the best subs I have ever heard. It has the clearest bass of any sub I have ever heard. I would definitely recommend this sub to anyone who wants clear hard hitting bass...

I bought 2 of these in a seled Jl Audio Box with a 1400 watt Jl Audio amp. Man, that is the deal of the century. The 1400watt amp is just powerful enough for one sub and since i still haven't upgraded my door speakers (that's tomorrows project) I can only put my HU to 25 out of 40. Basically at my max volume i'm only putting 5/16ths of the power these subs can handle and EVERYTHING rattles when they are this high. The mirros, cars beside me, my eardrums feel like they are about to fall off. I'm telling you theses are the best subs I have ever owned and I plan on sticking with these for as long as i can find them.

I purchased two of these JL's for my '93 camry ....wow. I have had several systems and this puts all of them to shame. Even with a amp not capable of giving them the power they need they still beat harder than the kickers , alpines, memphis , and audiobahn subs that ive had that did have a correct power supply.A good buy for anyone who loves bass.
