Review written by Joey from Berea oh
i had my buddys 2 phoenix golds in my car till i got these. had them on a kicker zx850.4 bridged on one channel (2 channels still open) and they were ok. got these, put them on the SAME amp, giving them the SAME power, and oh my god these things hit soooo hard. best purchase ive ever made. me and my buddy cannot believe that 1000w could ever sound so good. needless to say, we dropped the golds off at our other buddys house lol

WOW, for a 500w max sub, it hits lows harder than a 1000w or 1500w sub can. That precision engineering. I presently own 1 hooked onto one channel on my punch 400.2 amp and it throws about an inch and makes my car shake. i have 2 brand new ones coming in from sonic, who's prices were cheaper than ebay sellers for the p2's.
Pros- Hard hitting powerful lows
Cons- slightly weak mids, but sound quality is there
July 11, 2009Decent sub.

Review written by Christopher from Lampasas, TX
I have one of these in my chevy S-10...it hits hard, but my MA-Audio was way louder, but this sub has cleaner sound...now my volfenhag sub...ya that was wayyyy better than this sub, although the durability wasnt to great on it. so if you want clean bass and a durable sub, this is the way to go, now if you want LOUD...get the p3 or higher, or just go with kicker or ma or volfenhag...lol but still a nice sub none-the-less.

Review written by Cory from Albemarle, NC
this is a great sub, but like anything they are better in pairs, i know there are rockford haters out there but i dont care with the right amp these subs will hit low and hard. i have 2 of these with a punch 500w 2 channel amp, 2 boss-tw18 tweets and 2 t162c speakers on an alpine 200w 2 channel v12 amp, its crystal clear. if your going to do it right buy rockford, thats all i can say. I get compliments on my system all the time.

I installed a 12" p2 in my truck and for the price, I don't think I could have bought anything better. I really abuse this sub pretty hard, and unlike my old blown sub that was even rated for higher power, this sub has held together no problem and continues to thump out those low notes like new. 100% satisfied
April 22, 2009GREAT SUB!!!! LOVE IT!!!!

I hooked one of these up in my 98 GMC sonoma ext cab pickup on a 480 watt sony xplod amp and it hits like a beast. I love this speaker and i plan on buying another one soon. The price is great. I've had it for two weeks now and i dont have one problem with it. I recommend this speaker to anyone. I have friends that heard mine and now they want one just like it. I cant wait to get my second one.

Pros: Hits hard, very loud, especially in a regular cab small-size truck! Lasts a long time, and can take a beating.

Cons: The only thing bad about this is that the rubber that surrounds the cone is good quality, but is fairly flimsy. I unscrewed my p2 from my custom box, and the screw gun slipped and punctured a hole right through the rubber that surrounds it... Just like that!

Overall: Great subwoofer, as long as you are more careful installing it than I am!

Review written by Nathan from Sioux Falls, SD
I have owned these suckers for couple years now (one older version and other is this version) and they are the best ever! After breaking them in, one decided to quick working (wire broke inside or something, seemed fine but wouldn't work) so I sent it in to have it fixed, they sent back a brand new one for free (just had 2 pay shipping)!!! Both work awesome now and have out lived the amp (got too warm and quit workin the other day). Best bang for the buck...Literally! Kicks the s*#t out of my coworker's $300/each subs! Buy these bangers now!

I purchased an older version model P212D4 and that was in Oct. of 2006 and to this day my 12's still bump excellent punch bass. Some times I check the non ported box and the bass knocked out a external speaker port. I am serious people if you are looking for great bass at a superior price buy these subs. Oh and it would help if you match them with a 500 watt punch amp old school version if you can find one cause trust me old school power is just better with Fosgate.

Review written by James M from Fort Branch, IN
Well I have installed stereo and such professionally for 14 years. After a 5 year hiatus, I decided to upgrade the sound in my truck. I picked 2 of these woofers, wow how things have changed. These things sound fantastic! They work in such a small box it isnt even funny, mine are installed in 1.17 cu foot vented and they SLAM! They really remind me of the old school JLW6 12 inch woofers without the $300/ea price tag. Thanks a ton rockford!

Review written by Samuel from Kalamazoo, MI
This is a great subwoofer, I had one in my ford explorer and it hit so much harder, than my 2 audiobahn 10's, and its very clear too. It's worth the price. the only thing with this sub is you have to get the right amp with it. I had a 1200 watt 2 channel sony xplod amp, and i couldnt bridge it b/c the sub runs at 4 ohms and the amp does at 2 when its bridged, so i only have 400 watts running to it, so keep that in mind, but still, the best sub i've ever owned, and i've owned quite a few
