Not used to a 10 that will hit a decent low!

Im running it solo in a custom fiberglass box around 0.75-0.82 and it hits a clean 25hz! I think its getting somewhere around 250rms 900w max its hard to judge a class D @ 2 ohms. Im just happy when it knocks the congestion outta my chest and does it without a load of cone distortion. I'd buy another one if I had the money free'd up!

pioneer ts-w253r

I just brought this 10" Pioneer and let me tell u wow
It sounds great. Put in a sealed box .85cuft and it will sound great. Lows are great and clear put poly phil in box it will make a big difference .

nice sub value

I have mine in a .75 cu ft box w/ polyfill driven w/ 220w rms and it provides good thump without distortion.

Nice Sub

Awesome sound in a small package! Mounting depth is a huge plus for tight areas.

Great all around sound

I have two of these hooked up to my kicker amp and in a sealed box and they rock. They hit hard to any music and at the price they are great for any system your building. They will make your eyes shake.

Best 10's for the money

I have 3 of these, hooked up to a 300w alpine amp and a 600w sony amp. They seem to made out of great material & the magnet on this sub is huge for a 10. Seriously these things thump, you can hear me from at least 3 street away. The only personal con that i have with them is the outer rim of the woofer. I think it should be removable. My box hold 3 10's and i have to kinda squeeze them in. But besides that their amazing.

Great Sub For the Price

i bought this sub and have it in my f 150 it sounds really great and hits the only thing about them is that if there is to big of a box they rattle. just use the size of box that they recommend.

pioneer

This sub was good while it lasted... it hit hard played lows and highs good till it blew. definately wouldn't recommend giving it more than 500 watts.

For being 10's, they hit.

Bought 2 and placed them in a sealed box, was only giving them 50 watts each. but they still sounded great and hit the lows just fine. bought 2 more and going to use all four with their RMS power as soon as I get some funds. I tried to use them in a ported box, but to me it sounded like crap. Don't recommend a ported setup.

big improvement

i don't know what pioneer did to this model but they sound a great deal better than the older version of these speakers. Pioneer is a great brand that will last a long time.

Good Value!

These subs really beat in a low powered system. They're rated at 200RMS,but I had 150RMS running to each,and it's all they could do to take it. These subs distort easier than I like. These subs are great for some low powered beat, but if you want something that can take some heat, without the distortion, for the money, Sony xplod 10s are better.

Great Value!

It's a good buy for the money. Good sub for BASS, I used a 800w boss amp for my sub.

Good Bass

Despite the cheesy plastic back covering, once the speaker is mounted properly in the box it sounds simply amazing. A 10 inch speaker with 1000 Watt rating at this price is rarely found.

Awesome

I bought this woofer because i have a 18" kicker 07s18x4 hooked up to a kicker warhorse amp and with my son just being born i cant have the music loud and i need more space in the back of my 09 Honda. Anyways, don't be fooled by the size of this speaker it hits more like a 12" not a 10" over all great sound, sexy look and great price. Would definitely recommend this woofer. However I've only had it for 1 month so i cant really rate durability.
