As expected

Could have a better way to decide which wire to use as positive or negative. Only has spaced print on one wire.

Great wire

This is some great speaker wire looks good works good and you get so much for so cheap

Awesome

Great wire, for a great price! Love the color and looks very professional.

Perfect enclosure!

I bought this box to house a Pyle PLPW8D. The woofer's ideal specs called for a 0.88 cu. ft. ported box, and this one measured out at 0.9 - close enough to give it a go. All of my Atrend boxes have lasted, and this looks like no exception. I have had issues in the past with boxes being delivered in subpar condition from other companies, but Sonic delivered this box in perfect condition. The box woke up my little 8-inch woofer and gave it a great sound. Compact enclosure with solid build quality, no air leaks and the carpet was a perfect match for my trunk. The spring plugs provide a secure fit for the wiring, and I am now using this setup to replace my shallow 10-inch sub setup (which I thought sounded good before I heard this). I never expected to get such good, loud bass from my $17 "budget" subwoofer, and it's all because of this enclosure. If the specs match up to your needs, you can't go wrong with this box.

Nice Budget Box

Other than the fact I had to make slight modifications for my Sundown SA-8, this box came in great shape. I had it in a really crappy sealed box and was very disappointed in the performance of the box. So I bought this Atrend box and WOW! What a big difference! Great performance, great price. Would definitely recommend.

Still going strong...

I recently upgraded to an Incriminator Audio I8 and decided to see if this box was still up to the challenge. It most certainly is!!! Strong, deep bass with the tightness of an 8" woofer - the best of both worlds and the box is small enough for me to continue using my trunk. All of my Atrend boxes are still going strong and this one looks like it will continue the trend. Great enclosure!

Good value

It’s listed as (cca) which is copper clad aluminum wire and is cheap and doesn’t hold up good to high wattage. Aluminum isn’t the best audio wire, but it is copper clad and electric signals travel on the outside of the wire and that’s where a multi strand wire would come in handy. I think it’s a judgment call, but I wouldn’t buy it.

ESSENCIAL NEEDS

WOW HOW VERY FLEXABLE AND THE RED
REALLY GAVE SOME KILLER LOOKS. WIRE
VERY GOOD.

Decent speaker wire.

Speaker wire is good. It works as speaker wire should.
My only grief with the wire is the thickness of the insulation. It's really thick, and in my opinion, too thick.
I have a very high quality wire stripping tool, but the thickness of the insulation made it next to impossible to center the speaker wire and my stripping tool always cut a bunch of strands of the wire. Not a real big deal in the grand scheme of things, though.

BOOM BOX WITH GREAT SQ

I really like this box. The build quality is very good. I have a Kicker 8" sub in it and it really sounds great. Most people think I am running two 10's. This thing really puts out without being real "peaky" sounding. The port is tuned low, so it retains a lot of sound quality.

Its perfect

Im a bass head and i love my box. I installed a 8" fosgate in it and it's just snug! Even though there was a dent in the corner from being dropped some time before shipping and it exposed the wood underneath its ok, hardly noticeable.

Excellent for my JL 8W1!!!

This enclosure is bigger than the recommended specs for my JL Audio 8W1, but I tried it out anyways. Now my 8W1 sounds fantastic. I had my W1 in a sealed enclosure and the bass did not sound clean. After trying this enclosure out, I would say this enclosure plus the 8W1 is am excellent combination. Its hitting 30 Hz right now no problem. Between 50 and 60, it gets loud. I can't believe the lower end JL Audio 8 can sound this good with this enclosure. Buy it and get the 8W1 too. You will not be disappointed.

38 Hz

I have this box for my 8" American Bass VFL and Man does that thing pound! With this box tuned at 38hz my sub gets all the looks. Everyone is impressed with my setup and mistake it for 12's. Great box!

Quality not so good!

I had to grind out the 8" hole a 1/4" bigger so my 8" sun down sub would fit. Once I got the speaker to fit, it made it sound amazing. However, the speaker wire mount is crap and fell apart. I will have to replace it with a descent one.

Great quality for a prefab box. Solid product. Glad sonic gives you a deal for bundling products.

Worth the price for sure

Good quality item and definitely worth the price. Definitely recommend

Great price

I would recommend this product because it gives great protection from the elements and makes a nice enclosure for the speaker.

I liked the quality very much and the cable was very flexible which made it easy to run.

Good quality cable

This cable which I got for free with the purchase of a Belva Sub-woofer box is pretty good. Nice 12 ga. cable with a very nice outer insulator. Nice and flexible.

Just what the product description says and it does it. No complaints here!

Exactly what I needed

This is great speaker wire, and at a great price. Very happy

wire

Pretty colors. NO issues with this wire but how bout a kit with the nice bullet ends so they can go into the AMPS real perty like and I don't have to hunt and peck for them and/or some colored heat shrink wrap so you know which one is + or - easier.

great value great speaker!!!!!!

i bought 2 of these speakers about 4 months ago and put off reviewing them untill i had time to get them nice and broke in. i have them under powered with a 600 watt boss amp running the pair and even with the lack of power they push out 126 db on my spl gauge and verry clean bass with no noticable distortion. all in all i was verry pleased that a speaker which cost less than $50 and fit into a narrow truck box would hit this hard and sound this clear. amazing value!!!

Great sound

I purchased this for a Massive Audio HIPPO84. It sounds great, not as great as a custom box would sound for the woofer I placed in it, however, the sound coming out was great. If you want a better box you will have to build a custom box for your specific woofer. The box is solidly built and heavy. I would buy this Atrend 8SQV ported box again.

power 8's

I have used the power acoustik products for a little over 2 years. This is the first time with the RW1-8 for the price you can't find a better subs I plan to get two more to make a box with four 8's
I love the brand

Best value and real surprise Bass accuracy and volume

I built a 42" x 10" x 10" rectangular style box and divided it right in the middle giving them 1 cubic ft each. I placed the speakers 4 inches from the ends and used sch 80 3' PVC to port the same side. I have them running bridged on 1/2 of a Pyramid Gold Series 4ch 1800w amp.

The bass is so accurate and so much more than I had anticipated. All my friends are blown away by how much sound you get from them. I put this box in the cargo space of a 1990 Geo Tracker LSI. You cant go wrong with these.

PS: they are as tough as they look.

nice prefab

pretty good prefab box. Sounds nice and is of good quality construction!

Really Nice Box, Great Sound!

I bought this for more bass in my vehicle. My subwoofer was in a small, sealed enclosure. The bass was adequate but didn’t hit lows. I installed my Kicker Comp R into this and now the bass is a lot stronger. I’m really enjoying it.
The enclosure had a dinged corner with wood showing when I got it but it’s on the bottom of the box. I would just recommend shipping the enclosure with some minimal protection between it and the cardboard. Maybe just something to protect the corners. Accidents happen in transit. But, free shipping on a 20+ pound package is amazing!

Great box

This box was thrown in for free with a purchase of a JL Audio Subwoofer, the box was a little large for the sub that was purchased but at least it gave me a starting point for my new sub, my JL Sub recommended a 0.35 CF sealed enclosure so I basically had to cut the box in half and install a new bottom, it worked great and fit perfect under the passenger seat of my Sprinter Van, the sound is awesome and glad I didn’t have to make the box from scratch.

This box is GREAT!

Atrend definitely did good with this box. It hits nice lows and this box just plain hits hard in general. I have it paired with a Kicker CompR 8" and it's absolutely amazing for a prefab. If you're looking for a decently priced, and VERY well constructed box for and 8" sub, look no further and just buy this box. You won't regret it!!
PROS- hits hard, has great sounds quality, tuned @36hz so you get pretty decent lows for a prefab.
CONS- The ONLY thing I can call a con for this box would be the terminals. They're slightly crunchy, but other than that..nothing

Solid product

I bought this box thinking it would just be a poor excuse for a manufactured box, but it was a single 8 so it didn't matter, this thing is solid. 3/4" MDF and it's reinforced inside, build strong, great carpet on the outside. I will buy a box from Atrend if I ever need another one.

Its perfect

Great box for the price

Made in the usa and makes my subwoofer hit hard

wow

Very nice, was surprised at the sound. Plus im running 600 watts through them and they take it all. Highly recommend for nice little up grade.

Sound coming out is amazing

I purchased this Atrend 8SQV box for a Massive Audio HIPPO84...it sounds really good. The box is solidly built and heavy for it's size, and the sound is great. I recommend this ported box and I would buy it again.

Biggest 8's for the buck

I purchased 2 of these for my 1990 Geo Tracker restore and WOW!!!! These things just don't quit. I used 1 cft per speaker with a 3" pvc port to 1.5 inches from the back of the box and they are extremely accurate. I am running both briged off of one side of an 1800watt 4 channel amp (so essentially 900 watts peak) and they run clean for days :)

Love this speak I have 1 single 15 powered by a 2500 watt earthquake class d and it absolutely bangs can't go wrong with this subwoofer it has clean sound and can take power well

By Donald on April 2, 2024 Verified purchase

Good build quality

Nice solid box. Ported real close to what it says. I put a dc audio m3 8 inch in it sounds good and clean. Now I have to get more power.

Great valve and well made sub enclosure

Got item in timely manner, well made enclose, but had carpet missing on corner which may happen during shipment. Had not installed yet and will have to be modified for a square L7 8 kicker subwoofer. Will update on sound once modified and installed.

amazing and cheap

i replaced the original speaker wire in my car with this and the difference is just crazy and this wire is really cheap so it’s definitely worth it. it’s a nice color and is very easy to work with.

Solid Value!

12 Ga speaker wire, with great insulation, for this price? I was skeptical at first but after hooking everything up I can say that this wire is fantastic, and much better value than Walmart/Amazon. 23ft for $7 of high quality wire? No brainer.

Ive owned some power acustick 12's for years i bought these 8's for my father to put in his 97 s10 so far one is crazy getting him another one very soon.

Small but mighty

For a pre fab box this thing is well built. No air leaks and sounds great! Highly recommend if you don’t want to build your own!

Solid speaker wire for the price

This is great speaker wire for the price. Has a nice protective jacket and very flexible. I usually stick to OFC wires but for lower wattage speakers and line output converters this is perfect!

Great bass for a great price!!

So for a while, I have been contemplating on switching out my 8in sub for a 10in. I fabricated my own 8in sub box (measured at 0.35 cubic feet) a while back for my 2012 Honda Fit, but the sub that I had just wasn't doing it for me. So I decided to give an 8in sub one more chance. This sub SURPASSED my expectations. First off, the sub is very well built and looks mean. They say that you can't get much deep bass from 8in subs. This sub has AMAZING deep bass and AWESOME punch!! I highly recommend this sub to anyone that wants a sub that will not only save space, but also save money and produce fantastic bass!!

By David on January 8, 2016 Verified purchase

Undecided

I got one because it was so cheap and looked touch as nails.. Put it in a 0.85 cu ft sealed which is within its design and I couldn't get it to do much.. I know it's just an 8in.. But at 240 or so watts I expected more.. Might do better in ported.. 10in prolly better...I'm returning mine, I got two twelves at 1200w so maybe I am just spoiled lol

8 in power acoustic reaper

great sub replace stock sub in a 07 pacifica and threw 250 watts at it way better than infinity stock sub twice as loud and could easily handle 400 watts maybe 500 if u dont turn it up to loud.looks and feels sturdy its not a cheap sub

Power Acoustic RW1-8 rocks

These litte 8's hit hard. I have 2 in a share 1.5ft3 box and I only have 60 watts to each, not even close to the 250 they are rated for. They fill my suv with bass. With more more power to these they would be even better. I highly recommend them.

Good sound

I used them to rebuild some super old RadioShack speakers, they sound great; hit all the tones from sub low through the low range and the louder they go the better they sound, I was able to eliminate my subwoofer from my sound system with these in my RadioShack bookshelf speakers. overall I'm exceptionally pleased.

they go boom

These subs go boom every time you give them that punch ,sound really good with volume not even half way , make bike whole system draw heads

Happy shopper!

I purchased these speakers sight unseen and am very happy with the out come. They fit into my cabinets nicely and sound Great!

Great amp

Looks great, operates even better. Could not have asked for more from such a reasonably priced amp. Puts out plenty of juice to run my two 240 watt RMS subs. The subs clip before the amp does. Time will tell if it will last. When it is powered on, a blue light illuminates on the front panel of the amp.
