Review written by Tribalpython78 from Lansing
I have 2 in a sealed box running off a 1000 watt Rockford amp and the out perform my buddies Kicker Solo. I listen to mostly rock and they have a great response time, yet they still pound when I through in something with a little more bass. The guy who blew his obviously doesn't know how to hook up a dual voice coil speaker.

Review written by Jeremy from Dothan, AL
If you're on a tight budget, a pair of these woofers and about a 300watt rms amplifier will usually get the job done. The subs are good and can handle lots of power. However, you don't need a ton of power to enjoy them. They were very efficient and the overall sound quality was good. There are better subs out there but these are very good for the price.

Review written by Curtis from Jackson, MS
I had 2 of these subs in a sealed enclosure with a 350-watt Rockford Fosgate amp. After I broke the subs in they really started to pound, so i bridged the amp and they pounded even harder, the only downside to these subs is that they deal out a great deal of distortion on some songs, but other than that they're great!

I picked up a pair of these at a local audio shop for $100. Figured with the price I didn't expect much but they were amazing. I had them hooked up to a Kenwood KAC-9103d amp it pounded my car. hard as I tried I could not get these subs to miss a single beat.

They are amazing.

I have a pair of these hooked to a 2 channel 1600 watt amp. They are amazing! I've been abusing mine for about a year and a half and they still work perfect. These are good for any type of music.

My friend has one and mine is coming on Monday, good sounding sub woofer. I will have mine hooked up to a 92 RF Power 800 Amp, so SQ will hopefully be better than these hooked up to my friends Boss amp. His still sounds very very good though, hit nasty lows and crisper highs, not too high but around 500 HZ they still sound clear.

Audiobahn gets a bad name, why, I dont know but these entry-level subs are pretty good. I've had them for over 4 years now and had no problem.
They do bang and the price for these subs are great!

Just got these put into a 900 RMS kenwood kac9152. They start popping before I can get my volume up half way or any of the power from the amp going. May be different if I had less RMS amplifier, but these are trash.

Audiobahnn has many good subwoofers, and has good speakers. My friend owns 2 of these with a 1200 watt sony amp ( 2CH ). I would suggest this subwoofer for people with smaller cars, and a 600 watt max amp. This can't handle 700 watts with out blowing, the cone is a normal cone but for long periods of time listening to rap music above the rms, or on the rms will mess up the cone, and you don't want a subwoofer that sounds like it's dying when your listening to music. This subwoofer is cheap I gotta say. Also it sounds good and some what loud with rock, some R@B, jazz, and 2pac.

Review written by Josh from Kenosha, WI
This is a great sub I have 2 of them in a bandpass box being pushed by a 1200 watt amp in the trunk of my Bonneville (witch is a big car) and they rattle the crap out of the poor vehicle. Only downside is that between the box, the thick back seat, and the huge cabin of my car you dont really feel the body shaking imursive bass unless you sit in the back. But you can tell that given the right situation these subs would satisfy most people.I would definitly recommend these subs, but, if you do buy some put it/them in a regular ported box. I've desided on getting a bigger amp and getting 2 12 Audiobahn Eternals and puttin them in the ported Audiobahn box on this site when I get my Grand Prix. I love Audiobahn wouldnt go any other way. Anyone who disses Audiobahn obviously doesnt know jack about car audio. Again these are good subs and for the price c'mon I dont even gotta say it. SonicElectronics rules.

i have three of these in a sealed seperated chamber box with 1.25 ft air space to each. i9 have thrown all kinds of amps at them (audiobahn, boss, kicker, alpine, dhd, and kenwood)they can handle just about anything (within their wattage limit) with no distortion a little low on the looks for audiobahn though. theyre subs are usually more "showy"

I want to let every one now to look no further if you are on a tight budget.I have two of these hooked up to a bridged amp pushing about 300 watts RMS.I have it in a sealed box in my single cab FORD. It makes me want to go out and show off and still have some money let in my pocket.Definately the best if you are on a budget.

I have had 3 of these, I blew one so had to order another. They are the loudest I have heard in a long time. I have recomended them to my friends and a couple have even got a pair. They can handle a little more power then rated but I wouldn't go to crazy like I did. I have since sold one and now only have one left because that is all my truck will allow. Very Loud though.

Two of these subs are more than enough to provide glass rattling bass. With 400 watts of rms power two subs will get the job done. Audiobahn is a reliable brand and provides enough bass for a large SUV.

I had two of these up until last week when one blew. Before they blew they sounded clear and loud but not real bassy. It sounded great in the car but the bass could barely be heard outside of the car. These subwoofers do not seem to be very durable with high bass music.

Two of these were my first good sounding system, and I paid much more for them, but they were worth. If you feed them at least 250 RMS (each) you will be nothing short of astounded that $45 could go so far!

I have 2 of these subs in my saturn SL1, all I have to say is that i have never heard more rattle from a car than mine. I have only 300 watts running to each of them and they pound! I recently broke one some how, and its not blown, so i don't know what the problem is, but otherwise its an amazing value, and they sound great!

I was looking for a 12" sub that was cheap and good. When i bought the sub i was expecting a lot less. My rear-view mirror broke off and because my windsheild was broke it shattered that. My next door neighbor called the cops because she said that it was disturbing the peace. It is cheap and worth it.

I first bought these subs when I got my car. I was tight for cash but wanted to have a system to bump to. I bought 2 of these aw1251T's and let me tell you THEY POUND!!!! I had them powered by an audiobahn 8002T amp (800 watts) and they made my rearview mirror fall off and the interior of my car start to come lose! I would have never thought that I could get that much sub for the money I spent. I would recommend these to anybody looking to get into car audio for the first time they are cheap but sacrifice no quality or sound.

I just hooked these subs up yesterday and they sound grea so far. I havent even broke them in yet and they sound a whole lot better than my sonys. They hit like 3 or 4 times as hard as the sonys and they look cool too. I would definitely recomend these subs to anyone on a tight budget.
