I have a pair of these in my truck and they sound incredible. One thing I have found with Power Acoustik is that they don't sound that good when you under power them. I would recommend this product only if you plan on running atleast 1000 watts

These are truly worth every penny. Very hard hitting bass. They sound better than my 12" MTX Thunder 7500 series subs. Which I could not believe!!!!! They also cost alot less. Do yourself a favor Try Power Acoustics. They will surprise you.

I purchased two of these subs and hooked them up to my a2400db power acoustik and they slammed so loud it hurt my ears and everything in my car moved and shaked, even my windshield... People told me i sounded like an earthquake coming down the road, they could here me way before they seen me... Everyone wanted to buy my subs!! These speakers are a must buy, i loved them so much i even bought a set of the 15's to replace my twelves... Buy these subs, it won't let u down, deep accurate, hard hitting bass, for a price that won't empty your pockets...

Customer Testimonial

I was slightly skeptical about my purchase because the price was much lower than I had originally planned to spend. I bought my speakers on a Thursday late morning and the speakers arrived at my doorstep the next day in perfect working order. Thanks for the great price and lightening fast shipping.
