my neighbor has two of these 10's in his 97 Camry and the quality is outstanding. hes powering them with a bridged 1200 watt sony xplod 2 channel amp in a ported box and its still one of the most responsive and clear systems i've heard. even though their not running at their full RMS power they still bump, and they even hit the lows as good or better than any 12 and some 15's. I would recommend these to anyone no matter what type of music they listen to, these subs can do it all.

This subwoofer is an absolute steal! With its double stacked magnet and Super heavy duty aluminum basket this sub obliterates other 10" subs, set up right and run at full RMS these subs will win you any SPL comp, with 10" subs. The bass is extremely responsive and tight and gets just as low as any 12" can. Make sure you know which version to get, however. The dual 2Ω sub can only be run at 1Ω or 4Ω a piece. The 4Ω version will do 2Ω

These are the most incredible subwoofer that I have ever owned! I have always used Rockford Subs, but decided since all my other car speakers were Pioneer then I would go Pioneer for the subs. I have two of these in a ported box being ran by a Kicker 300.1 amp running a 2ohm load and the base is absolutely incredible. No matter what kind of music I throw at them they sound very accurate and loud. When playhing Techno music I feel like I am in a dance club. It is the base you can feel and it has pulled my entire system together. These speakers are built incredibly well and look great!! I Love them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pioneer Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
