Yes to the Pioneer sw3001s2 flat sub

I love my Complete JL audio setup in my truck and hated getting rid of my w3 sub because it was taking away a back seat. This pioneer sub (i hate to say) pounds harder than my jl did and still has clarity and balance throughout the frequency band. I have it in a 1cu ft flat longated box tucked under my back seat and u probably wont find a better sub for the price.

Totally stoked

I bought two and put them in the trunk of my BMW 330ci. They're enclosure volume requirements are low compared to other shallow mounts of this size and wattage. After using them for 4 months, I am impressed. I am powering them with the pioneer amp GDM8601 and they are loud enough to cause mild discomfort during bass heavy songs but still sound crisp during faster rock/metal. I don't think I have pushed their potential, as I turn them down when the headlights start dimming. I'm super pleased.

Great for small spaces

Bought one of these to fit in the back of my minivan (don't laugh). I built the box according to the Pioneer optimal ported specs. At .8cuft it doesn't take up much space at all.

I blew the first one while setting the gain. I had a test 30Hz since wave going through it at 80% volume. Thing decided to melt down. My fault. I learned later the better way of setting gain using a multi-meter. I highly recommend doing it that way!!!

Second sub installed and this thing hits great. After the first few weeks of break in it can even hit 20-25 Hz. I'm pushing it with a Kenwood 500W RMS amp. Its still not enough bass for me, but I have to deal with the WAF.

I bought two more of these and used them to build a home theater sub with a Dayton SPA1000. Watching Transformers shakes the whole house!

Good Sub, a great price, decent quality

Sub sounds great and great sound quality. But it always smells like voice coils are breaking in. Had 1st sub on a kicker 5 channel amp. Sub blew. And amp went out. Both came from sonic.
Sonic sent new sub and replacement amp. Now this new sub smells the same way. So that makes me unsure of the quality of these subs.
Kicker amp only pushed 400 watts. New amp is turned all way down on 900 watts. Still smells like it's burning.
Sonicelectronix.com does stand behind their warranty and is a great company with their service.

Awesome Punch

Pumping 500 watts RMS into this shallow mount 12" sub in a .7 cubic foot sealed custom box behind the rear seat of my 05 Tacoma. Good lows without booming resonate bass. Produces a gut felt tight bass response. The construction exceeds the expensive popular subs. Thinking about using them as a powered home sub box. Smaller the box the more power you will need.

Quality

This is a great subwoofer for a reasonable price. The sub was easy to connect up because of the spring loaded clips, and a great all around product.

Very good service awesome product works seemlessly the sound that is produces is ridiculously clear and the bass does not vibrate and rattle like most subs do

Big bang, Small package

For anyone looking for a shallow sub that will still pound, this is a good choice. It's the only sub I have ever had, but compared to my friends full size 12" Sony X-plod sub and amplifier, this Pioneer just destroys it in accuracy and sound.

very great speaker

I owned 4 of these in a single cab chevy 1994. They hit so hard my wind sheild wipers move and shake. My back window would flex so much. I would totally recommend these!! The reason i dont have them anymore is because i am getting a single 10" Pioneer Premier 800/3000 watt sub between my bucket seats but this a great starter sub no doubt!!

Great

These speakers are very well worth the value. They have good sound quality for being shallow mounts.

quality sub

The sub sure is small, it isn't the biggest, ground shaking, sub you might want it to be, but it sure will give you that extreme bass while keeping sound quality just as good.

Good sub poor design

So I bought the box and amp recommended for it and installed it in the truck of my miata. I have tons of pioneer equipment and swear by them but they messed up this time. The sub sounds amazing and the amp stays practically cold somehow. However the amount the sub flexes when in the box is greater then the space they gave for it. I had it professional tuned and when he tuned it he noticed it right away. The box doesn't even give an inch for downward flex which is how they show it to be installed. So if you get this which I do recommend getting the whole package, raise the box an extra inch or so because my sub tore its face of and put holes in itself even though I never came close to 60% gain on pioneers amp for this setup.

You would never believe when you hear it!

Looking for some sub woofers for a limited space Chevy Silverado 1500, my brother told me about these speakers. The Pioneer TS-SW3001S2. These woofers are simply impressive for the size, design, weight and not mention the power handling. Don't believe me? Try them, I guarantee that you will be impressed with this woofer. best money i have spent!!!
PS! My system specs: Pioneer double din 4300 dvd player and 1 orion 1200 watts for the Pioneer TS-SW3001S2

Very Good Sounding Sub for what it is. great price

This is a very good sounding sub. Fits in the small air spaces perfectly and handles good power. I was very impressed with the sound quality and handling of this sob.

ok

Cut out with too much power. I am pushing 1000 watts and have to set the gain below half.

Mega Cab dodge

I have this in my mega cab. It was more than expected for a flat sub. Coming from my 8” JLW8 I wasn’t expecting it to perform nearly the same.

I let it break in on low for a few weeks, it fills the cab respectfully with crisp sound with my 1200w amp. Bass isn’t anything to brag about, but I do enjoy the space gain and the variety of music it performs with. I listen to mainly heavy rock and some rap. But the value is reasonable and performs comparable to a non flat subwoofer. Lows are not as great, but it’s in a non ported box. Time will tell if it’s durable. I’ve had it about 6 months. I’ve yet to really crank it due to my amp size but it’s as loud as I feel comfortable pushing it. My W8 would see 108db at the floorboard. This hasn’t been tested but nowhere near the loudness, nor the price of the JL.

Would recommend if you’re looking to conserve space and enjoy some bass. But don’t expect anyone to be blown away of the sound

Great subs!

I'm writing this review after they are discontinued, just in case someone on the internet sees it. I bought two of these subs over 7 years ago...and they're still pounding to this day!
