Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pioneer "Champion" maybe

Not great for under 1000W usage pretty simple looking but completely durable and can take unbelievable abuse

WOW!!

The drivers sound quality is very good. It blended very well with the main speakers. Bass is well defined and not one noted or boomy.. Even though It still needs some run in time to loosen up, I'm very impressed with it. Build quality is very good and looks to last a long time. The only con that I personally have is the fact that the woofers surround is made of foam. I would've preferred to see a rubber surround instead... Rubber lasts much longer and is much more durable. That's why it didn't get a 5 for features. But for a nice, low price, I really can't complain.. Used with the right amount of power and the right enclosure, this sub is a true sleeper..

Good bang for your buck

Good subwoofer for the price they take alot of abuse and have a good kick to them.

good for the price

I currently own 2 of these they pound hard but doesn't need to much power to do so ...they blow kind of easy but besides that gata love em especially for the price

Nice for the Price

These are good sounding subs for the price. You can deffinately tell theyre lower end subs, but they can hold their own. Good power. No Distortion. Overall a good value!

Excellent Budget Sub

I wanted to design my first system on a tight budget. I listened to this sub at my local Walmart and it fit the bill. The bass was good, the looks were great, and the price was excellent.

I have two hooked up to a SonyXM2002GTR 200Wx2@4ohms amp in a custom sealed box and these Pioneers are loud! With gain set at about 3/4 and my volume at a comfortable loud level, I can feel every hair on my body vibrate with the beat...pretty nifty.

I recommend these to anyone who isn't quite ready to shell out more than $400 for a sound system. People WILL hear you coming with these in your trunk.

Great for Cheap

I get one off here and its a damn good sub for cheap i blow an 400 watt amp from it hitting so hard

Subs

Great work will bump hard.

Great Subs

I've had these subs for a while now, and after they break in they beat hard. They look sick, a little pastic-like, but they pound hard! Well defined bass, these subs are well built and support the high quality reputation Pioneer has built. I have 2 of these powered by a Rockford R500-1 amp, and the entire neighborhood and hear me coming from blocks away! They are a good buy.

dont buy

please spend your money else where. i love the pioneer champion pro subs but these are aweful.

be careful

I had one of these pushin 600 watts and it sounded great. got a Kenwood 720 watt amp and blew it the next day. great sub for the price but it distorts at high volumes.

Good Subs!!!!!

I have one of these in my ford with a kenwood 500watt amp they could still hit pretty hard I just wish I bought it here they're cheaper for the same subs

Its ok

Got this sub for 50 bux and its alrite, hits alrite, but wouldnt buy it again. I would give it 3/5 at the most

Great buy!!

I just bought these subs and they are incredible they sound great hit hard would recommend to anyone!

Great sub, great price

I had a Dual brand 12" sub when I first started upgrading my car audio system, and no matter what I did, there was a persistent rattle, especially at high volumes. It sounded like it was coming from the rear deck underneath (where the 6x9s are mounted), but I never could pinpoint it. The other day I got some cash for a birthday present and decided to go ahead and "upgrade". I picked up this bad boy and the difference was immediately clear. Not only was the rattle gone (cheap Dual sub must have been the source, go figure), but this thing gets damn loud without any noise artifacts). Like one of the other reviewers, I'm pushing this thing with a relatively cheap 150RMS amp and it does the job just fine. The sub is installed in a 1.25cu foot box which is the recommended size, and I couldn't agree more. The last thing I need is a couple of bass blockers for my 6.5in speakers up front and my system is complete (until I decide to go ahead and upgrade the head unit too). This subwoofer has left me completely satisfied, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

In fact, my only complaint is that the sub didn't have optional male connectors for the speaker wire so I had to cut / strip the connectors off of the wire that came inside the sub box to attach to the push connectors on the sub. Hardly a serious complaint, but I'll give it 4/5 on features for that, I suppose.

Great Subs

Two of these in my truck, very happy with the sound quality

Awesome!

These subs are great! They look amazing! They not only look awesome, they pump out bass like a pro too. A great buy for the value! Not anything amazing, you get what you pay for, but for use slightly below the professional level, this is the way to go.

REDONCULOUS!

OKAY so here it is, amazing, I agree with the foam surround though, bad idea by Pioneer, but other then that my Pioneer TS-W303R sub is in my single cab chev, powered by a whopping 1300 w Kenwood KAC-8152D amplifier! A high powered amp is a must for the best sound quality from this sub.

This is a GREAT sub.

I got this sub and it was my first new sub i ever had and i am very impressed by it. the thing hit so hard it busted my box apart,it was a ported box tuned to 35Hrtz. Man i love it i have it bridged on a pioneer 5300t amplifier which is a 760 watt amp and it's a perfect match.

GREAT DEAL!

These subs are absolutely perfect for the beginner as far as bass goes. I have 2 12" in my '92 Ford Explorer and they have rattled the rear gate handle off, busted a lot of rust off the frame, and loosened the carpeting(this is not a hunk of junk either). When I have my MTX 200 watt running about half gain, people can hear me literally coming about 1 mile away. Great subs!!!

Pretty decent

I have 2 of these subs but the model before and they are pretty good for their price. Although its taken me awhile to break these in they sound pretty crisp. I've been running them with a 1600 watt pyle pro amp but i would suggest something a bit smaller.. All in all these are good for any beginner upgrade

nice

i have 2 of these in a sealed box with a 1800 watt legacy and they hit hard. very good buy for the price. i have blue neons in my trunk and the subs look great with those on. could get better subs but of course for more money, these are a good kept secret.

good price

these subs are good for how cheap they are..deffinatly good for a 1st system, not much distortion at all

OK

Had 2 of these in my old cavalier. It sounded great, wasnt the best speakers, but for the price, they were amazing!!

decent

its made for entry level install. not impressed at all

loud as hells xD

I really recommend these subs :D A friend sold me the pair of subs in a ported box for $40 dollars. But i never imagine they could get extremely loud with berly 80 x4 (80 watts per subs) i have em hook up in my house and they even move ur clothes u are wearin on and it throws down everything with its vibration. EVEN THE DOOR MOVEESSS xD If u really want great sound for less money, then this is the secret. ;)

Great for beginners

I had one of these for the first 12" sub I ever owned. It sounded great but unfortunately I had a little 220 RMS amp and it caught on fire when I was on my way to work. I recommend this sub to anyone on a budget that wants a little more bass in their ride but make sure you have a good enough amp.

Pioneer

This is a good sub. I have ran 2 in a Ported box for about a year with no problems and can take a beating. Paired with the Pioneer 760w they sound good and can get loud with the right enclosure.

Great price looks nice

Had a 400 watt amp hooked up, did an amazing job. then got a Kenwood 1000 watt amp, then blew the sub with in 10 minutes. great value nice looking hits hard. but DONT over power. recommended to anyone :)

Great.

These Pioneers are GREAT for the price. I underestimated them at first, but they pack a punch. I've had very expensive speakers and I have these for now, and I am not disappointed.

Good Sub, Great Price

I bought one of these a couple months ago, and man, this thing bumps. My friend has 2 phoenix gold's and we both agree mine is louder. My whole audio system was Pioneer and i was satisfied with the quality so i picked up one of these.
I'm thinking of getting another one soon!

good

i bought it from walmart and i thought it was a peice of junk but it was way better then i thought it would be nice sub

these subs are great

these are really get subs for the price my friend has one in his car and it bumbs really good i think he has it hooked up to a 1000w amp but i am not sure if u get on of these i suggest u put it in a q-logic bandpass box.

Fried Voice Coils in 4 Months

I had these subs for about 4 months, no heavy use hooked up to a Rockford R500-1 Amp (2 subs wired in parallel, so a perfect match, no over powering) and I fried both subs after only 4 months of use. I'm attempting to get replacements under the warranty, since they were not over powered or ever plaed excessively loud. Before they blew, i loved them, but be careful, they might just only last about 4 months.......

Pioneer Subs

I put two of these in a bandpass box with a memphis marine amp giving each 150 rms, and they sounded amazing, they hit hard for the price, the only problem is they get allot of crap for their plastic looking woofer, but they shut people up when they start to move air, great buy I would recommend them to anyone

Pioneer Subwoofer

I just got this subwoofer over the weekend and I would have to say it is a nice subwoofer. I have a 300 watt amp that puts out 150 watts rms and it is perfect for the subwoofer. I would definitely recommend this subwoofer to anyone.

nothin special

I would recomend these subs for somebody who wanted some bass for a low price because they will rattle a car but they are deff not for competion systems and people who are serious about bass setups.

Nice frequency range.

I just have 1 of these installed in a 1.5 cu inch (3/4 mdf) box I made myself with only 300 watts pushing it. My passengers and I are impressed with what this sub can do for such little cash. It is a true sub-woofer and does not muddy up the mid-bass since it only plays below 90 hertz.

WOW! Pioneer TS-W302R,, They Slap.

I bought 2 of these an man they slap. I have them in a ported box connected to an Audiobahn Amp. It makes my truck rattle.
I like.

great product

This is a great product that provides to much needed bass to any sound system. This is the first Pioneer speaker I have ever owned and I was very impressed by the quality and sound produced I recommend this product to all.

73' Malibu

Great sub for the price, I have 3 hooked up to a 2000 Watt amp and its good, plays low, and is accurate as long as the amp is good or at least turned with a medium to medium- high wattage.

Great buy

I have two of these in a q logic box. powered with a 800w pioneer amp. hit hard enough to rattle the spoiler off my car, has taken down my mirror on the windsheild, and rattled the carpeting off the back of the seats in the rear near the back window. if i set a quarter in teh center council cup holder, it will bounce the quarter out of the cup holder with no problem. whats funny is, the lows are set at 3 out of 10 on my receiver and the amp is turned almost all the way down.

Great buy

best pair for under $100

i purchased 2 of these subs and mounted them in a sealed ONIX box(39.99) and when you roll up next to a civic you will out bump $300 systems any day of the week. These are not compition subs so do not try to over power them but they can take short very high power drives

Bang for your Buck

This speaker is dope! I have one in a box hooked to a 200W Alpine amp, not even that much power going to the sub and the things still knocks! I pull up in the driveway and my neighbor hears me dumpin from 2 houses down! Ch'yeah! Obviously you could get louder and probably clearer with a better speaker, but for the money, this things will do the trick if you just want some loud bass. I listed to rap so this definitely worked!

Amazing for a beginner

I was absolutely blown away by the sound this sub produced when I first heard them in my friend's car. With only 150rms to two subs these blow away many subs rated at that much by themselves. They hit really hard, and really fast. They do not hit very deep, but they're beginner subs. Overall an awesome buy for someone looking to broaden the frequency range of their vehicle.

CHEAP!

very very good subwoofers for the price. not the greatest subwoofer but probably the best for the price. two performed beautifully on a Pioneer 760 watt amp.

Good Sub

This subwoofer is very good for the price. Even though it can't handle a lot of power, this sub can really hit. I had two of them installed along with a 1000 watt Xplod amp, only gives out around 165 watts RMS, and people told me they heard my car before they saw it.

can't go wrong

i have a 1994 ford explorer it has stock JBL door speakers but i added a JVC KD S16 head unit Scosche Amplifier Installation Kit a pioneer GM5400T 760 watt amp and the pioneer TS-W303 i have little to no gain on the amp bass boost on 6 and DAMN the s*** hits hard i was told when i got it if i want to run alittle more power ( already at 380 Bridged ) to slowly work it in. i made the mistake of jumping the amp to 3/4s the power out put as soon as u got my sub in and blow the voice coil in less then 24 hour ( real smart i know ) but the place i got it from exchanged it and no problmes yet i been slowly working it in burping the gain up to normal for a short amount of time but for haveing only $291 tied up in my system it sounds good that i might soon step up the box to a 2 12" sealed box buy a 2nd TS-W303 it pounds hard wit just 1 i am dying to hear my truck wit 2 after steping up the altanator or battary or even both

sony x

I had one of them and smoked it
with a Sony x I am a pro audio installer
If u are to buy one do not over power it !

Great

My friend has two of these in an 01 Chevy Blazer with a 760 watt pioneer amp in a sealed box and its pretty ridiculous. I would highly recommend these subs to anyone.

Nice Sub

This subwoofer is great, you can really rock out loud with it, its great for first time buyers. It a good, reliable product and i recommend this product to every one.

junk

had this speaker but the dual voice coil one for a week and one of the voice coils fried and i hooked it up in the house and it completely blew. not worth the thirty bucks or even ten.

great sub

awesome sub for the money i have it hooked up to a 550 watt amp bridged in a truck box with polyfill and i have the gain turned up half way and it loosened the seat brackets for my power seats not bad for a 30 dollar investment from sonic electronix

King Kong

I have these in my ride right now. There good for starters or people that dont need a ton of bass. I have a 240W Pioneer amp hooked up to em and they rattle the car.

THIS POUNDS SOOO HARD

this is one of the best subwoofers for the price it bumps real hard if you hook up the right stuff i would personaly sugggest the pioneer primeer amp that has 1200 watts and wire it at 4 ohms so you still have alot of peak power and just the right amount of rms.. the rms might not be that much but trust me this sub pounds real real hard.

Good for money

Average looking sub. great pound for price. i paid $60 for these at walmart. Hard hitting bass, but not a super clear sound. certainly no MTX or Alpine.

Boom for the buck

I have one of these in a non ported box with an autotek 1000 watt amp pushing it and it bumps hard. It says 250 rms but I think its a little underrated. These things will really hit and if you have a solid amp and wire it properly, its just awesome. I've had it for about a year now and I haven't been disappointed. I would definitely recommend it especially for its awesome price.

Excellent value

I purchased a set of these speakers along with a deck and amp for my son's first car. They sound great.

Rocks the House, Literally

I purchased this sub to replace an old sub in my box for my surround sound set up in my home. My sub showed up as promised. It is very impressive looking, solid and heavy. It was easy to install. I plugged it in and immediately got rich wall shaking bass. I would recommend this product and this company. I am very happy with the results

Very suprised with the product!

These subs arrived quickly from Sonic. The pair were placed in a 1.5 cu.ft. sealed enclosure in a "80's style Camaro hatch. They are hooked to a cheapo Crunch 700 amp. The subs have surprising SPL inside the car.
I simply cannot understand how you could get any better of a deal for the money.

superb value

First time buyer but I don't think i could have done better for the price. 6 months in and still very very staisfied i would recomend.

Good buy

These subs aren't the biggest and baddest obviously. But they will rattle your rear view mirror (if its loose) and you will feel it. Solid buy if you are on a budget. Had it in a Ford Focus. Had it for 6 months and they still are knockin..

Very Good Subs

I actually bought 2 of these subs and i must say i have them hooked up to a 1000 watt sony xplod amp which way under powers them i do have a digital amp coming my way though and it peaks at 1300 watts so im interested to see how good they sound if the already sound this good

really surprised me

i have these in my closet right now along with 2 kicker comp 12's and i must say that these are just as loud as my comps but they sound cleaner and its not as raw. and these are much cheaper the only reason i dont have these hooked up is because i upgraded to to type r's

hard hitter

This sub is amazing for the price. I've got one in a sealed box hooked up to a power acoustik 480 wat ammp it it hits as hard and as accurately as anyhting ive heard in its price range.

Great sub!

Had this sub for over a year now and it still pounds! Put it in a sealed box and had it powered by a Jensen Power 760, which puts another 10 watts more out that the sub is only rec for RMS. And my best friend has two Sony 12" powered by a Power Acoustik amp and mine will be louder! So pay attention to the watts and specifics. Brand name isn't everything. :)

pioneer ts-w302r

i have 4 and they perform perfectly especially for the price.

goodness

Got one and i'm gettin another one. They are amazing for the price.

Pioneer, cheap, yet effective.

I bought one of these, don't be fooled by the brand name or the plasticy look....lol...in the right box, with the right amp...this thing actually pushes a lot of air for what it is. Great value and durability, the makings of a Pioneer product. I did eventually take it back, but that's because I bought an RF sub so...but still awesome for a local store sub. If anything, this hit lower frequencies than my new sub, and it's half the price...lol..

Very Good subwoofer

I have 2 of these in a custom box run by a sony xplod 1200 watt amp, very good subwoofer in every way. I recommend this product to anyone who wants massive bass.

good sub for a beginner

this was the first sub that i have ever owned. i had two of these hooked up to a 1000 watt xplod amp, and they were loud! this is a very good sub for the price.

ok

i owned one of these and they do ok...if your on a tight budget then i would deff get two of these, the only thing i dont like about these is they dont hit the low notes that good but the high notes are great...overal pretty decent, expecially for the money

Jamal From americus

I have two in my car i have a amp on each one of my subwoofers they bout to rattle my truck off they hit so hard that u can smell the speakers they are very good subs. people think that i have top of the line subs but they just don't know i only paid less then a hundred dollars for them. very good speakers.

Great bang for your buck!

One word... awesome!

very nice sub

this is my first system i've had and WOW. i have two of these in my taurus with only 600 watts goin to both of them and they rattle everything. hit so hard they even pop my trunk open on some songs. i love it. would recomend them to anyone. worth the money!!

Sweet sub

I just hears this sub in this kids eclipse and it thumps! He had it with a 1200 Sony Xplod amp, and the sub was gettin pretty good excursion. For the price, this sub is really good.

These things pound!!!

I have 2 of these and 2 10"s and they pound my mirrors off my truck!!! i have them hooked up to 2 1200 watt sony xplods and they sound very good for the price i paid for them.

Great Subs!

I had these, but the old version of these, and the old ones rattled pieces of my dash off in my Jeep Cherokee....I had them hooked up to a 360 watt Jensen Power amp and they were in a custom 5cu. ft. box my brother made for me, lows were beautiful... these must be even better, nay to the haters of Pioneer, you don't know til you have them tuned and hooked up PERFECTLY!!! Best subs I've ever owned, and I've had MTX, Kicker, and Dual, and Pioneer was the loudest...maybe not the clearest...but the loudest I have owned...great product highly recommend for people who want to impress without a name brand price tag!

WOW! they are great

I bought 2 Pioneer TS-W302R.
They are 12\'s. They have a great sound. I have them in a dual \"ported\" box. WOW!
For the price, they are really great

hard hit'in

I just bought four of them and built a huge 7.1 cu.ft. box for my car and tuned it to 39hz and and I'm pushing them with fusion 1000 watt amp and they beat like no tomorrow.

wal-mart sub

This is an amazing underestimated subwoofer. Pioneer never fails me.

Great for Price

This is a great subwoofer if you're starting out and do not have a lot of money. I hooked it up with a Blaukpoint amp for my first sound system and it bumped hard and was very clear. Would highly recommend.

good

I bought two of these when my other subs got stolen for a short time use, and i was pretty happy. i sold them to my buddy and he liked them so much he bought two more and it sounds great.

i love them

wooooow these subs sound so good its crazy i have two with 800watts amp and a bandpass box and its crazy loud great buy!!!

WOW

I have two of these in my trunk running off of a $90 amp and they SLAM! I have two of these taking about 200 watts each and they are without a doubt louder than the two CVRs I had with 400 watts each. Alot of people overlook the most important determining factor of speaker's loudness, its SENSITIVITY. Great sub, wish I would of bought it here instead of for twice the price at w******. Still worth it. bout to buy two more.

some strong subwoofers

i bought 3 of these and MAN do they hit. they pound real hard and for the price they are worth it. i have 3 of these and they shake my windows in my lincoln navigator and they are barely half way up. if i put it to the max my windows will probably shatter.

Great Product

My customer was very happy with the cost and quality.

Good Product

You get what u pay,overall its a good product and worth your money.

Great inexpensive item!!!

I did not expect to get hit this hard by these subs but I was wrong. I ' have an amp yet but I have them hooked up to my 6x9 speakers wiring and I still get them to hit hard, I cant wait to get my amp to make them really hit. A+
