Heavy Duty!
I would recommend this product for the guy's out there that are serious about their music. If you got good, high quality subs, then this box will make them perform to your sub's max output with out worry of blowing up your box.

Good
This wire is very flexible and fit nicely in my 2000 nissan maxima. ring terminals were a little fussy, but that was operator error. very nice 150 amp fuse. Lots of wire crammed into it. Very inexpensive for the quality. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an upgrade.

The Box that Rocks
Appears to be fairly well built. Arrived with a little dent and a tear but its too little to bother with. Sounds nice but doesn't hit as deep as I would have liked. Small size however, leaves me some room for a couple of bags of groceries. Three stars for durability since I've only owned this for about a month.

Amazing Enclosure, Even Better Price.
Ordered this as my first enclosure, put two 12" subs in it and I haven't found a box that hits as hard and as clean as this one has. Will definitely buy from SonicElectronix again for my car audio needs.

Fast and easy great buy
I got my complete set up: 12" kicker subs box 1000watt Mbquart amp and amp kit. I have always installed my own equipment, I found it helpful that they have videos that covered some of the product they carry. There are a few shop's in Texas like Best buy and Custom Sounds that offer equipment. But the professionalism of the knowledgeable staff the price and the reliability made it clear that I wanted to do business with them.

Decent Amp Kit
I am a professional installer first of and my father is an electrician. Following the AWG- American Wire Gauge standards this is not 1/0 wire it's closer to 2AWG, please understand that true 1/0AWG copper wire will cost around $5-8 a foot.
That being said for the price it is an amazing kit but should be marketed as 2AWG.
When compare to Kicker and Memphis true to spec 1/0AWG wire there is a major difference in size and weigh over all. 5 feet of Memphis 1/0 Wire weigh the same as 17 feet of Belva 1/0AWG.

I have never ran 0 gauge before and when I got it and took it out I was surprised but the big wire didn't really hurt the install it is still hidden under the carpet and it's thick and flexible so it was easy to run through the firewall. Now I'm gonna get the Belva big 3

True 0 AWG!
Pros:
This kit comes with everything you need for a 0 AWG amp install with RCA inputs.
Cons:
NONE
I would definitely recommend purchasing this kit if you need a quality 0 AWG kit at a fair price with super fast shipping!

Solid Box
Ok so I bought this box because I wanted a quick sealed enclosure for my 2 JL W3's. The box is made pretty solid, true 3/4 MDF but the caulk job on the inside was kind of off but that's nitpicking. Haha after 3 weeks though of pushing my W3s the top of the box is leaking air. So not the best made but definitely a good pre fab and pretty cheap. Can't really complain. It is nailed together tho so yea..

It's a box without a hole
Solid sealed enclosure. Two of them barely fit in the back of my 02 Focus SVT 3 door. The binding posts are cheap, I tightened them as I would other posts but one out of eight wouldn't tighten because the thread tolerance is poor and it acts like its stripped, I can get some pressure on the wire but I worry it will come loose. Probably worth spending a little more money on a better enclosure but it works fine if you're on a budget.

very good sub box
The box is very good at 1.25 cubic feet. I'm running 2 12's with 800 watts rms and it hasn't shattered. Wish it was 1.35 cubic to accommodate for subwoofer basket displacement but it still makes makes subs hit ridiculously hard. Polyfill helps make the box seem bigger due to mechanics and the "Q" point. I really couldn't be happier!

WOW Great Quality
I purchaced your Dual 12" sealed sub enclosure and added two Alpine R's and fosgate 1000w amp and WOW does not even come close, it Rocks. The quality of the box is really really impresive. The carpet in not the junk material I've seen in my other buddies combo's.
When you buy this box you know it will deliver and last a long time.... Sonic, keep up the good work!

quality product
This enclosure is a well built enclosure for sq applications. I purchaced to house 2 CV vmax 122 drivers and the sound quality was almost rubbery? not tinny, never a crackle....fluid almost..... call it a well dampened sound with minimal distortion. just clean bass all the way into the 20s. made sounds i diddnt know existed. if you dont care how your music sounds and just looking for loud, look elsewhere. my only complaint, 11" cutout is too small for the vmax and the black carpet is difficult to follow a line with the router.

Great Sound!
i have 2- 12 inch Memphis audio 15-M3124D's in this box each putting out 2000 watts max hooked up to a MA audio HK10KA amp rated at 10,000 watts max. i have the subs bridged and it has way too much power going to them but the box still stands up. i would recommend that when you install your subs that you put some sort of foam stripping underneath the lip so when you screw it down you wont have and leaks at all.

Sleak, Sexy, Soundiful!
Its cheap, in price. Yeah, we see that. But let your worries go to rest, this is a GREAT BOX. Its well made, and put together great. Although they did use nails instead of screws, if you know what your doing, it won't slow you down. I have 2 12" Kickers in this baby, and pounds like a mofo.

good cheap starter box
i bought this box about a year ago for 2 of my infinity reference 1260w subwoofers. I have two more in a ported box. im pushing 350w to all 4 and I have to say I like this box more than the ported. you feel it more in the sealed box but lose a little on the db's but its worth it. the box is sturdy and hasn't showed wear a bit. its tuned in the lower 40's so you wont get stupid low with it but can get loud. I would recommend it to anyone on a budget or to lazy to build their own box. it comes with polyfill which is a bonus, the terminals on the back need calked but that's with about any box you buy. overall I like it and would buy again if I had to.

ok so far
Installed this weekend, I did add a couple pounds of "pillow stuffing" since the box was a tad smaller then what I needed. I have noticed some flex already but im not suprised with the subs that are in it. I will add triangle shaped gussets and some "trim screw" to try and hold things together.
A sheet of real MDF (not the cheap underlayment) is $32, carpet and glue around $15 so for what they want for this its a good deal that just needs some minor tweaks.

This is a good quality budget amp kit. Power wire is almost true size and soft and flexible. Everything was exactly as described and no issues at all getting my system installed with this kit.

Great Budget kit, with a few shortcomings.
Overall this was a very good kit, with thick high quality wiring and heavy insulation. I saw no factory flaws, and since installing it I have had no problems. It did however lack a few things, which bugged me. The first was that neither: the ground, nor the power cable came pre-clamped, this wasn't a huge deal as I had access to a vice, but for those with limited tools, they may have trouble creating enough leverage to cramp the metal ends tight enough. Other then Having to clamp the ends myself (again, only an annoyance if you don't have access to good tools) the kit has performed flawlessly, and is a great value for the price.

I did have to spray a little adhesive inside for 1 part of the foam & terminals were screwed in & not exactly straight & I also had to poke holes in the foam for wires but these things are no problem. The box is awesome & I will by more in the future

best box 4 the buck
Don't let the skimpy price fool you. This box is made very well and it's ready to go. The joints are already caulked and glued - so there is nothing more to do than mount you speaker.
It's not MDF(medium density fiberboard) like all the others, it is made from HDF; high density fiberboard. HDF boxes are typically stronger, stiffer, and lighter than MDF enclosures. The box does not require any additional bracing because of its density. It has a high an undetectable high frequency resonance and doesn't color the sound of your bass with unwanted buzzing or flexing. The HDF box is lighter than MDF because it has smaller fibers that when pressed and heated require less glue and resin to bind the fibers together.
The speaker terminals are screw type gold plated binding posts that will hold 12 g speaker wire easily. They screw into the enclosure for added strength and a tighter seal.
Just make sure that you do your math and pick the right sub for the cubic feet and stuff with poly fiber fill.

Extremely well built
Insanely well built box.
Carpet job is top notch, Good quality carpet stretched perfectly over the box. All joints are glued and caulked well. theres no need for extra bracing here but you may add some 2x4's to reduce the airspace if needed. The gold push terminals are well sealed in place.
Hits low and hard with all sub's I've thrown at it (JL Audio 12W04's, Rockford Fosgate P312D4's, Kicker CVX12's and finally Alpine SWX-1242D's)
Don't be afraid of the price. It's a perfect price for a box of this caliber. Would recommend it to anyone.

Tuff Stuff
Nice heavy, good sounding box. I would reccomend putting some polyfil to "cushion" the backfire of the subwoofer, really helps w/any sealed box and totally makes a valuable difference considering it only costs about 5-10$ more. The box itself is well sealed and well made, the connectors on the inside and out are really easy to use and once connected your wires will stay put.

great sub, good deep bass
Pros: deep bass, can be loud or soft and sound good, box doesnt matter, sounds good in sealed or ported, only need 500 watts to get it pounding.
Cons: will blow easily if you try to run it close to max watts (stick with rms), doesnt have the high notes that other subs do (this is more of a rap sub than a rock one).

Bought this kit because of cost. Fuse holder is of good quality. RCA cable is nice. No noise. Plenty of remote wire for amps. Power and ground are very flexible.

Hard hittin
Bought this along with an RF Prime R500.1 (528RMS).
At first I had this in a sealed box and I was happy. Then I got a ported 1.8 cu ft box and this thing hits so dang hard. When the back seats are down it shakes my winshield and side mirrors like crazy. So many people ask what I have in back and they are amazed when I tell em its only 1 12". This thing out does 2 kickers easily. Almost nothing can compete with this sub in its range. The only thing that you have to watch on this sub is the low lows. After playin rack city at max volume they started to smell a bit. For all other Hz this thing is a beast.

Make sure you get a box designed to spec!
I had one alpine type r in a walmart box and was very disappointed. So I decided to get a second one and put them in a ported box designed to spec. WOW what a difference. I was bumping so hard my rear view mirror fell off! I would definitely recommend this sub just make sure you buy a ported box from sonic instead of settling for a walmart box!!

Alpine Type R
If you want loud get these. They dont change notes very well between high and low hits but they are still loud. If your lokking for everyone around to hear you get these. Two of these in a ported box is all the bass you would ever need.

Fantastic Sub Box
A very well-built and nicely carpeted sub box, that looks great, and should prove to be very durable, as it is constructed with 3/4" MDF instead of thinner material of many other boxes costing more than this.
The black carpet makes more of an impact than the typical gray carpet, and the 5-way binding posts are much higher quality than the typical plastic spring connections normally found on sub boxes.
Very happy with this purchase, and would absolutely consider another should it fit my needs of enclosure volume. (It's not worth the extra time/effort to make a custom box, when this does the job just as well, and comes pre-lined with poly-filled and pre-carpeted)

Great Budget Box!!
Ordered my box and had it at my front door in 2 days! Great box. Its very well built and pure mdf and thick mdf wood. Nice carpeting. Only down fall i see is there was no poly fill and terminals are on sides instead of rear. I thought it was suppose to be this one pictured and both are the same numbers but different box but i am still very very pleased!

Sturdy enclosure
This is a very well constructed box, well sealed and solid. However, mine arrived new in the box and every corner had the carpet worn off and bare wood showing. Also, mine was not lined with poly-fil and the terminal cups were on the sides rather than in the back as it appears in photos- no biggy but that did influence my decision as my install would have been a little "cleaner". All in all it sounds great and seems extremely durable.

Awesome with my dual JL 12w6v2's
Purchased because I needed a new box for my JL Audio W6v2's. Sounds great! Great solid construction, nice that it's already lined with polyfill, no air leaks and the black carpet looks great. Can't beat it for the price and sound quality with my subs in it is excellent. Guess it would be nice if the terminals were pre-wired but I soldered my own wires in. Love it, would buy again Box fits perfect in my '13 Accord trunk

This is exactly what it says it is. I measured the wire itself at slightly over 3/8 inches. Which is exactly what 0gauge is. There are brands out there that are thicker, but they are oversized. Several companies make oversized power cables. But this IS true 0gauge.

Best Value!
This was already the best deal for a 3/4" MDF dual enclosure I could find, everything else in this range is 5/8".
For the price I wasn't expecting much.
However When it arrived found it is of good build quality, with decent carpet.
They already lined the inside with polyfil, more added value.
Then to top it off, found it has really nice gold plated screw type wire terminals. Better connection and added peace of mind that connections will not come undone.
This is probably the best deal/value on the internet for a dual 12 enclosure. Probably why it's backordered at time of this review.
Very Happy!

I really like this product. It is loud and pretty crisp and I only have it on a 500 watt memphis amp. It does smoke a little when I turn it up but im pretty sure thats my very old amp, and not the sub at all. I didnt like how the bannana clips for bridging the voicecoils felt so I just used speakerwire. They were just very loose. I listen to hip hop, punk, rap, dubstep and it compliments them all very well. Oh and if youve never listened to dubstep on subs then dont hate on it just yet. Its totally different. It is really about the bass you just dont get on headphones. Lol

I am running 4 of these puppies in my ford with about 7000 watts. These subs are drop dead sexy with HQ bass. If you want bass that will shake the crap out of your can + 4 blocks away these are the cheapest subs to do so. BTW you dont need to let these subs warm up in the winter, even tho its still a good idea.

I need more juice!!
These things are beasts. If you can't afford the really expensive stuff go with these. They won't dissapoint you. I started with one of the older models and it pounded on my amp pretty nasty for a single 12". Kind of reminded me of my w6 in a way. Now I have the newer model to go with it. I have the Kicker 750.1 running them in a sealed box in a Camry and its not enough by far. It sounds like one still. I have everything wired to the lowest ohms I can get em. I wish I would've gotten the 2 ohm ones to give em a bit more power, but I can't complain. I think they would be better off with a slot ported box but they sound very clean the way they are. With the right amp and set up you can run just one of these and be happy.

The title says it all! I've had this sub for a day now and I still am surprised that I have all this bass coming from a 10" sub! It hits the highs and nails the lows and fills my whole Subaru with quality bass without rattling the trunk annoyingly. I put this in the sonic sealed box with .75 cubic feet hooked up to my old MTX TN250 Terminator amp and this thing barely takes up any space back there. This sub will not disappoint you!

High output, Good sound quality
I wanted a sub with high output and good SQ at a low price, after doing a lot of research, I decided on this woofer. I tossed it into a 1 cubic foot sized sealed box as recommended by Alpine for SQ (I mainly listen to rock music). I juiced it with an RF bdCP 1000, 900 watts at 4ohm.
I used to own 2 RF 12's powered by the first model Bd1000. This single 12 hits at least 70% as hard and has better sound quality.
I bought one more of these, and I'm thinking of sending it back, a single one is so loud. ( I will probably keep the extra one and hook it up)
I havent tried wiring this sub at 2ohms (My amp gives 1500 Watts at 2ohms) But I would imagine it would probably sound even better.
This sub sounds good for rock and rap, but for some reason, it makes techno and dance music sound great. It feels just as bulletproof as it looks in the pictures.

Insane Bass
I have one in a 2009 Ford Escape for my wife. It's running off a pr2.100 Memphis 2 channel bridged at 300 rms. This sub is by far not getting enough wattage but the sound and clarity is superior than 2 PR Memphis 12's. This one sub is plenty for her car and I recommend this for all. This sub is well worth 200.00 range easily. I fiberglassed a box with 1.9 cu internal vented tuned at 32hz. This is a 5 star sub.

Two SWR1243D on a BXI2607D at 1 ohm
These subs can get really loud they can almost handle all the power my bxi2607d puts out at one ohm but I cant run all the power to them.
I would recomend these to someone who likes mid low to mid bass they dont go too low so if your looking for low lows like 5-30 hz look somewhere else I put them in a box that is 3 cubes per chamber tuned at 32 hz and the aw1208t's I had in the same box really hit the lows crazy but these r's they are more for 30-60hz bass that most rap plays and they sound really great just don't hit vary low like i would like or Im used too lol

I bought two for these subs in June and man do they sound good. Ive never had alpine.

I have the bxi 1610d running two of them in a ported box I dont know the cubic feet of the box lol but the bxi is rated at 1600 rms but ive talked to several at sonic and this amp pushes about 1400 rms but they do hit pretty hard I have 0/1 gauge ran and I upgraded my alternator to 150 amp and I soon will be getting the sk-bt60 and another sub! sonic is a great place to buy from ships fast I would recommend this sub to anyone for the amount of money sonic has them priced at you cant beat it.

GREAT AMP
Bought this amp from SonicElectronix and man i gotta say it plays way better than i expected. The rms is really on point from the specs. I have eight pyle pro pdmr5 mid range on each channel and wired to 4 ohms its loud for just one door. Each door has eight midrange on it, spl competition, and i rewired it to 1.7 and it nearly trippled the output. My ears were ringing and the q-tune is really good, it adds depth to the mids giving them the slight echo vs raw boring highs. The sensitivity makes it really loud if turned up all the way but not neccesary. I recomend it to be used for any system. it is a really good amp. forgot to mention i did bridge the doors at one time n you wont be sorry you bought it. one recomendation is to upgrade your charging system with the big three and i added a second battery because of the low current my alt. puts out. 14.7@40amps 200 amp alt. coming soon so it can goo even louder. when i had the one door open , i had crnk it for a demonstration and the guys listening said their ears were ringing and stepped back. GREAT buy, never shut down on me.

Great subs for the price!
I have two of these subs, with each one being powered by one PDX-M6 Monoblock 600 watt amp. They sound amazing. Very clean, tight sound that I hadnt experienced with my past sound systems. You wont find a better subwoofer in this price range. Currently, I'm running 600 watts to a sub that runs at 600 rms, and it appears to be a perfect match in conjunction with the rest of my system, as I want a clean, blended and loud sound, not huge Boom Boom from the trunk and nothing else being heard. If you're like me, you read nearly every damn review before you punched in that credit card. Buy them!

Great Amp!
I have this amp powering 2 Boston Acoustics G5 1044 subs (10" dual voice coil) wired at 2 ohms for 500wts rms each.
This amp rocks. It makes my subs pound so hard. The day I installed them I had the gain set at 50% in the garage of my girlfriend's condo as I tuned the frequency. About a minute later she came down and told me I was shaking things in the kitchen 3 floors up!
The installation was very easy, and the adjustable sound level (RSL) knob makes it even easier to adjust on the fly as I change music types, ride with a passenger or pull into my neighborhood.
Only negative is the fan is a bit noisy. This is the first amp I've had with an internal fan so maybe comparatively it's not bad (and perhaps if it wasn't in an open hatch I wouldn't hear it)

Excellent sub!
I'm running one of these with the 600watt amp made for this sub, and it sounds excellent.. actually made some plastic clips in my car rattle loose causing plastic parts to detach lol. Great sub just give it proper time to break in, I blew a 1242D (previous years model) by pounding it too early in the break in process. Once its broken in, it can put out a lot of bass for a long time without overheating or anything weird like that.

bumps hard
i bought this sub a while ago but bought a truck so i never quite had enough room for all my stuff and a big 12" ported box so i sold it to my friend. he has this sub in his trunk and even with the seats up it still bumps hard. He has it in a ported box and it really sounds good. He has it on an alpine mrp-m500 and you can tell it makes the sub happy just by how clear and loud it gets.

After installing this beast in my car it occured to me I could use this for welding. I am however using it to power my 12" L7 woofer. The bass is incredible and what a improvement over my last amp. This amp is now going in my new ride with my A/D/S 6 channel.

Clean Amp
This is a very clean, well made amp. The features rock. It does run a little warm when cranked @ 2 ohms for a while but performs solid any ways. I have it pushing an SPG555 so I don't have to run it to the tilt to get it to hit. It's a little spendy but worth it. I'm glad I got it.

Alpine r 12
I have 3 Type Rs and they slam. There in a triple sealed box. Need to get another amp to power them. You can't go wrong with Alpine or Sonic.

Nice Upgrade =)
I just purchased 2 of these a few weeks back to replace my 2 kicker cvr's and there is clearly a noticeable difference in spl, these things pound hard! I have them in a ported box and the amount of air these things can push is almost ridiculous. I have them wired at one ohm running off a 1000 watt MB Quart amplifier which I also got from sonic and I am completely satisfied with my purchase. I would recommend these subs to anyone! Great spl and also great sq! Apline rules! =)

best bang for buck
I went head and got 2 of these with a hifonics brz1200 and did a custom ported box. box alone is big enough for 2 15s so for these 12s they HIT!!!! I have them in a chevy tahoe its flexing wipers, sunroof, side doors, and back hatch rattled so bad had to do 5 sheets of dynamat. overall get these they are crazy loud

Wow.
I bought these subs a couple of days ago and they BANG. My system is the loudest I have ever herd and I installed it for less than anyone I know with subs that are wayyy cheaper because of Sonic Electronix. And not to mention when I play rock and even old songs by the Beatles they add so much depth to the songs it's amazing. Like my studio speakers! 100% recommend these.

buy this and you'll be bumpin
My friend purchased this and i helped him install it into his mustang. he didn't want crazy bass so he got one. Not even broken in yet and its ridiculous for 1 sub. Sound quality is great and its still very loud. i would recommend this to people that want good deep quality bass.

Great subs for the price
These things pound. I currently have a Kenwood eXcelon 794x running to these subs and make them absolutely crisp. I have a Hifonics Brutus 1200 RMS and let me tell it pushes the subs to the max and you cannot tell they are not slowing down one bit. For the price and quality I would highly recommend these subs to anyone who is looking for sum slap.

Serious Sub
I have this in a SonicElectronix slot ported box and wow does this put out some serious SPL's with 600 clean watts from an old Diamond Audio D5 600.1 amplifier wired in parallel. This combo sounds and feels like it's going to rattle my Civic Si Sedan to pieces. I am going to need some serious Dynamat to keep it all under control! I highly recommend this sub. There simply isn't anything better in this price range.

Some of the Best
I have two of these hooked up to an alpine MRP-M2000, getting about 750-800 watts rms each. They hit real hard. Mine are in a sealed box stuffed with polyfill. Get these and give them lots of power.

Good sub
Just installed one with an mrp-m500 and it hits good. Bought some more for me and accidentally spilled some epoxy on it. When getting the epoxy off, it peeled some of the cone with it which is when I noticed that the cone is not really "kevlar" but pressed paper with a metallic paint coat on top. Other than that, its a great sub...just wish alpine didn't twist the truth

Good Sub
This was the third sub I ever had and it sounded pretty good, I ran it at about 600 watts rms power and it hit the lows great. Definitely a good buy.

The Beast!
I bought this sub and made a downward facing sealed enclosure with about 1.25 cubic foot air space. Running a 2000 watt amp and it hits great! Good clarity, thump, and rugged build. It kills in my large truck. I wouldn't need another since it does what I need, but if I did I would definitely get another alpine.

Great Sub! Nuff said
I wanted a sub that could meek my quality standards of rock music but i also wanted to be able to beat the block down with some bass if i had to and this sub does exactly that! I have two of them in a ported box and the make my windshield have excursion! Do not take a second guess just get it and you will be happy! Trust me

great price, awesome sound
I purchased two Alpine Type R 12" subs and they really bump but most importantly, they have great sound quality and are very durable. I highly recommend them

Well not sure yet
I bought these to replace my kicker cvr 12s, thinking higher x max would allow them to hit deeper than the kickers.I put them in sealed boxes and run each one with a Kicker 750 amp. They dont sound as loud and are distorting when turned up.Might be bad amp match up or I need ported box? I have however heard one of these subs in someones car ported and it sounded great so that is probably the answer.

God Damn!
I have four of these in a sealed quad box hooked up to a single alpine mrp-m2000, thats 500 watts per subwoofer, an alpine head unit with monster 400 series wires, optima yellow top battery and a kinetik's hc600 and all i have to say is god damn in the words of e-40 "my s*** bangs" great subs this is the 3rd system that ive had 12" typr r's and ive never been disapointed. I had a single original 12" type r in my caviler with a directed 1100d blew it but thats bound to happen when you double the rms to your sub then i bought two of then next series same directed 1100d in the same car sold them for 15 kicker l5's "dump stupid idea!" now i have four of the current models 2011 little r's 100 more rms then the last two series so yeah i know what i'm talking about when i say buy these muthaf***** subs they take a beating and sound great and for a this price s*** you would have to be stupid to pass them up!

ALPINE SWR-1243D
I have recently bought 2 of these bad boys, and let me tell you. For the price and Quality they're a steal!
Nothing like ALPINE or SonicElectronix when it comes to audio equipment!

Awesome for the price
The new third generation Alpine Type R has some pretty nice changes from the last one, like a higher RMS rating to be the best change, a slightly more shallow mount design, and a better motor cooling system... But the bottom line is this thing pounds hard for such a good price.

awesome sub
i have one of these bad boys in my car hooked up to a 500 alpine mono block. this thing bangs. i have it in my jeep liberty in a 1.5 cubic foot ported box. all i have to say is wow!!!!!! i get out of my car sometimes with my ears hurting. i plan to get a second one and another amp to power it. one is perfectly good for your car, but if you want to get some nice comments from your friends get two. you will not go wrong.

Awsome Sub Great Sound
Alpine Subs just rock, I have had Kicker CVR,CVX, and L7s, DD, Rockford, and JL W7s sure those are good subs great SPL so so sound quilty. For the price Alpine can't be beat nice SPL but also amazing sound quality ever at max volume, if you thank there not good it is prob your box you need to always have a custom box built for your car/suv for your subs to be the best they can, sure a prefab box works but the box makes night and day in quality. I have two in a custom 4 cf box ported around 30hz for SQ the higher the port the more SPL but the less SQ. There running off a clarion PDX11500 1500w RMS at 1 Ohm and its more then then Kicker L7 15" I just took out. Will always buy Alpine as long as they keep up the great work.

great sub...great sound!!! wouldnt expect anything else from alpine
this thing pounds...i had one hooked up to rockford fosgate 500 rms amp..and it rocked this sub to h***...it pounds the heck out of my car...1 is all you need. if your looking for ridiculous bass get yourself a couple of these..you can run them on 2ohm at 500+rms and this things takes it like a champ

Great amp!!! Best sounding amp ever!!!!
Excellent sound quality, great design, superb power! Can't go wrong with this amplifier guaranteed!
Boston acoustics did miss on putting an RCA output for linking to other sources. You would need something like that for expandability.
Overall the amp is a 10 plus.

Can't go wrong!
Awesome power, nice look, good fan which is also not too loud. Worth every penny. Don't know reliability since they're new so i've put 3 stars.

Awesome
Got the package fast. These pound in my car. Didn't realize how hard they would hit. I am very satisfied for the price i got them for. Also came with really thick wires. So far they been fine and I've been blasting them down the street and people can always hear me.

Cost effective
This is a good cost effective amp wiring kit. Happy with thus purchase!
Missing item
Missing speaker wire, the one shows on picture
Good value but remote wire sucks
Good thick flexible cables. Only complaints are rca’s are kinda thin and remote wire is very thin too, ground and power cables and fuse works good!
Excellent Product
The product is very nice and exactly as expected.
