Ridiculous

This sub is a beast. Just the looks of it make you speechless. Defiantly the most flexible 18" sub I've owned. Very heavy duty competition sub. A must have, Especially for people who listen to rap.

The big boy

this sub blows your mind. i have one in a 02 Dakota and it kicks. Not only is this big boy loud, it's tough. I listen to Rock,rap, and heavy metal ,but it doesn't matter it's all the same in the vibration. A good pick.

Best subs on site

These subs rip my car apart i have 2 of them in a 13.69ft3 enclosure inside my car.. man sounds like i got some in the trunk to it rattles so bad. My windshield, doors, windows, and roof flex. The hood even vibrates, i havent been to competition yet so i dont know what i'm hitting. I'm using a power acoustik 3000D gothic series.I played them long and hard for long periods of time and i've had them for a couples months now. NO PROBLEM AT ALL. If you got the space buy these subs.

Great Sub

I bought this sub maybe 2 months ago and boy does she hit. I got it in a custom ported 5.0 cubic foot enclosure and it makes some noise. Had to replace my head unit with a higher end model because it vibrated my dash so bad that cd's would constantly skip. Great bang for the buck.
