good product

I have no complaints this product is great i would recommend This to anyone looking for easy Setup .

Great seller

I advise!! Fast shipping!! I received my amp perfect!!

Simply Awesome

When I saw this amp and read up on it I had to have it. It's a lot of bang for the buck. Setup is scary simple. The digital circuitry and class D design is clean and second to none. I have this paired with a JBL P1224 in a ported box and it is much louder than I expected. Very nice.

JBL MS A5001

This Amp is beautifully designed, easy to use and set up! I have it running one 10" JL W1 in a small sealed enclosure in my 2014 4runner. Power is clean and plenty of it. I highly recommend it for its design, flexibility, and clean power!

Serious power, I love the amp for the value

I paired this with two 10" GTO JBL 528 subs wired in parallel, 4 ohm, and it hits so freaking hard, my jeep bounces! Seriously, this is a great amp for the cost. I also own JL Audio and can't tell the difference.

Nice Amplifier!

I am using this for a pair of Pioneer TS-W260S4 subwoofers and a Kenwood Excelon 998 in a 2003 F-150.

This was a huge improvement over the OEM installation, and I am really enjoying the punch that these deliver!

The installation and setup of the amplifier went well enough without any major issues.

great little amp

The shipping was fast and packaged appropriately. The only minor inssue I ran into during installation was the remote input. The input had a 1.5 hex instead of 2.5, so the supplied Allen wrench wouldn't fit. I would suggest reading the book a couple of times b4 setup. I have it pushing a Fi Audio X10 in a 1.3 ported enclosure tuned at 33hz. It sounds better than when I had the kicker zx750.1 pushing it. I'll have to update this review once I have it for awhile to give opinion on durability.

Awesome features

Purchased this amp for the features. Upon arrival, it did not work. I hooked up my Kicker and completely forgot about it. Sonic has a great warranty, so I sent it back- even after the warranty had expired. They gave me another even, so I hooked it up and mounted it on the box, as my box has an amp rack. I blew the screen. It still works great but I can't change anything on the amp as I cant see what I am doing without the digital display. Shame on me for that one!

jbl ms-a5001

Awesome amp for the money. Pushing 2 rockford fosgate p1. Sounds amazing.

great amp

This amp is great easy to use and set up nothin bad to say about it

Great value and great sound just what my car needed

My subs went bad I found these at a good price and thought I would try them out. I'm glad I did as these hit hard and sound awesome even with a cheaper amp. I will buy these again in the future and they look cool as well.
Great price and value for a tight budget.
Thank you

pundits in the back of a 2013 legacy

I've found this amp is very well put together. The digital face is a nice touch. But don't think you can get this and not know how to work it.. you still need to know how to tune an amp.. this one just makes it easy.

Hard hitting and tight

I am using this in a single subwoofer system driven by a Boss 1500 mono amp and a Pioneer DEH-P8400BH. I have had a Pioneer and a MTX 10" in the trunk already mounted in their oem boxes. This Infinity 1060W mounted in a generic .74 cu. ft. box with poly fill sounds like two subs compared to the others. It plays rock and metal lows super clean and tight. Awesome sound inside but has revealed loose heat shields and license plate mounting outside.

Great

Wow, crazy good deal for these! Other websites had them marked up over $30 higher. These kick hard and sound flawless, best bang for your buck no question.

Great bump for your vehicle!

I was very surprised at the power of this woofer! I sounds great, has good lows & I have not had a single problem with it since. I would highly recommend this woofer to anyone! Infinity is a top audio brand (which I have all throughout my car) & many people have said if you can't get Infinity, get Bose. Well, Bose is WAY more expensive so this is a great deal!

You will be estacic with the performance of this Infinity sub.

I installed an Infinity 1060w in one of my cars and it showed me how lacking the Pioneer TS-SWX251 was in my other car. I used a sealed single 10" subwoofer angled truck or hatchback box enclosure of about .75 cu. ft. filled loosely with poly fill for the Infinity 1060w install. At the same amp and head unit settings as used with the TS-SWX251 the Infinity was about twice as loud and just as clean. I've ordered another to replace the Pioneer in my other car.
I listen to all genra of music and ran this through the paces of double bass metal to Bach organ works. This sub will let you know what can rattle on your car, like heat shields and license plates as well as what can shake on your garage shelves.

great product

Thank, ive had an awesome experience. My package I got has been everything I could have wanted from the customer service to the quality of the speakers and amps. easy to install and sound amazing I would definitely recommend this set up for anyone. I was looking for something that would not wake the neighbors and found it. get compliments on how good the amp and speakers sound and perform. looking for a set up for the money you have found it. just remember to break them in before BEATING it up. thanks sonic I will be a returning customer.

Excellent subwoofer

I wanted an all infinity system in my 96 jeep grand Cherokee I have the reference series 6.5's in the doors and this sub is amazing I put it in a ported box and 380 watts going to it and wow the bass is so deep I listen to all kinds of music and this plays it all. I have had all brands of subwoofers from 8's to 15's and this will satisfy anybody's bass needs.

Magnifique

I love this Amp. very simple to setup with the digital screen et great sound quality with its DSP treatment.
I love JBL for the sound quality.
I attached this amp; with a pair of JBL CS1214 and they are playing very clean.

I LOVE IT!!

I purchased this amplifier to power two RF P3 10inch, dual 2 ohm subs. It does an excellent job at this but I love it soooo much, I'm getting one more and upgrading to two 12inch T1 dual 4 ohm subs. This amp is extremely easy to set up considering the amount technology packed into it. There are almost all usable crossover frequencies available, lo pass and hi pass. Good job Harmon Kardon on an excellent product!!! I've used it for two weeks now so my 5 star durability is a bit subjective...

Infinity Reference 1060W

used for 1 month so far. deep deep bass. tight responsive. used with an alpine bridged 220w amp.in a .75 cu.ft. sealed box. happy so far.! no sign yet of unglued surround. will update after 6 month

Only con is the 'made in china' sticker.

Infinity 1060W 10" Subwoofer

I purchased this 10" subwoofer for a home theater subwoofer build. When the unit was finished and I started testing it with my blue ray movies, I was absolutely stunned at how good it sounds. I heard and felt sounds I had never heard before. Rich, deep bass and powerful, room shaking effects that were not present with my previous commercial sub unit. I am very pleased with this subwoofer purchase and highly recommend it.

Pleased

I would have gotten the 1062w had I known they were available, they allow drop of ohms. Great woofer, clean sound.

Versatile!

Separate input/ouput level adjustments, digital crossover (no guessing!), subsonic filter with variable frequency & slope, defeatable crossover (on hpf & lpf), variable slope on lpf (same as hpf), automatic turn-on, underrated power, wireless bass remote... What's not to like?? Perhaps the only things I could find is not being 1 ohm stable for those that need it & some had issues with the wireless bass remote staying connected, but other than that this is probably the most versatile mono amp on the market and especially at this discounted price level. These will be missed when they're completely gone from the market.

Bargain

this amp puts out over 700 rms @ 2 ohms...make sure your woofer can handle that much!!!

Accurate bass

I just got a pair of these to replace a single 10" Alpine Type R I had in a slot-ported box. The Type R was great, but I wanted more accurate bass response for the type of music I listen to. I have two of these in a 1.5cf sealed box, on a 400w RMS Class D monoblock amp wired at 2ohms. These things ROCK. Bass response is tight, punchy, and accurate. I love them. Exactly what I needed to improve my system. These Infinity Reference subs are a great value. They look nice and sound great. They are efficient, so you don't need alot of power to push them. I'm giving them only 200w RMS each and they are loud and clean. These subs are great for rock, metal, or jazz. But they also hit hard with rap or hip-hop. You can't beat these subs for the price. I haven't owned them that long, so not sure about the durability. I'm not overpowering them, so I expect them to last awhile. I would definitely recommend these for a nice SQ system.

great sub

have had this sub for about 8 months been working great no probs at all bass sounds great cost was cheep and would recomend thease subs for durability and great sound i pound them hard for long periods time and they holding up great

Great Easy Features!

Powerful Amp for its size. It is really simple to use and has great features! Where was this 10 years ago? The reproduction is great, sound quality and did I mention the features! You can't go wrong with this amp for its price, power and features. It's not a SPL monster but a middle of the road every day type amp. As with any JBL product...its loud and clear!

Great speakers!

They bang!!! I have had these for 6 months now. I love them. Tight clean base. I have had Infinity SM152 speakers for about 15 years now in my house.... they outlasted 3 power amps, and never blew up. You cant go wrong with these.

Best value

I recommend this little amp because is so powerful and easy to install any were and the setup so fast and tucking about the sound is great but don't take it from me get one and then you can just for you self A1 little amp

Absolutly Awesome

Broke my 1060 in today, and as someone who has has many systems of many varieties I have to say that this sub is remarkable. I have it in a dampened, sealed, .75 cu. ft. enclosure with a Kenwood 1100 watt amp and it hits hard with clear clean punch yet it still rumbles in the low end. I would absolutely recommend this sub. (only wish it had spring terminals, but I enjoy soldering)

Impressive Capabilities

Hello Fellow Bass Heads,

I had blown my recently bought Kicker C104 sub, I ended up choosing this sub as a cheap replacement. I had read a few reviews and gainfully bought this sub. I broke the sub in slowly (across a month period and slowly increasing bass levels). I have nothing to complain about the sub itself. It has a very nice look, it bumps really loud. I burned out my 500 watt Sony Xplod amplifier with this sub. LOL :-) this made me happy. Its rated at 1060 watts (I bought a new amp, on its way - 1000 watts). This will go in sometime Wednesday or Thursday. I'm very pleased with the quality of the sub itself.
Comparing it against the Kicker C104 is kinda difficult.

This Sub:
---------------
Pros-
-Thicker surround for durability
-High output in Watts (1060 watts) - cant beat it for the price
-Clean Look
-Bumps sooo hard it dims my lights

Cons-
-Doesn't hit those lows as well as the Kicker C104 (this is because of the thicker surround, which I am telling you is better)
-smaller radius, which can also affect the sensitivity for the low bass
-Dims lights = more money to satisfy its requirements

I found this sub doesn't hit all the lows appropriately because of the thicker surround. I don't consider this a bad thing. Why? you might ask - well I had originally bought all Kicker speakers and sub for my car. I had Kickers "Livin' Loud" status up until the sub broke down. It ripped in many areas around the special surround (which I found to be very thin) Kicker uses.
I am truly hoping that by adding a 1000 watt amp to this system, it will better the sensitivity of the lows bouncing off the thicker surround and for that reason I will be writing a second review indicating my findings with higher power. I'm also expecting a larger draw from the battery, so I'm contemplating the purchase of a capacitor to alleviate the dimming lights.

This is a great product thus my 100% ratings. It is worth every penny. If your on a budget, you want this sub. allows you to continuously improve on your system.

Thanks for reading!

yup

Six months n still bumping. Sounds just fine. Just what I wanted in a 10"

always loved infinity/jbl

Have 2 pushed by 250rms a piece in sealed box. Always used infinity and still do. Sound really smooth and clean. Good price for a pair and im struggling to see out of rear view mirror. Take in mind its in the trunk of a ragtop z28.

Great in car sound!!!!

My customer was very happy with the cost and quality. I also installed one in my car; their just that good!

Awesome

I have heard some of the older Reference subs and were pleased with the quality. When I saw this newer one about 6 months ago, I had to get one. I put it in my Dodge Ram in a truck style ProBox, running it off a Profile 2-channel amp bridged. Infinity has not disappointed me yet. The sub hits just like I want it and the quality is great!!!!

truly amazing

I've owned many amps by orion hcca jl audio memphis audio kicker and even a JBL gt series back in the 90's. First I am impressed with how compact this amp is. The digital read out and being able to perfectly dial the hz in and signal is something I've never seen before and truly comes threw when dialing in your preferred sound. I have it hooked up at 4ohms to 2 12 gto single 4ohm subs in vented box. I can not believe the sound 250w per sub this amp produces. Just incredible. This is by far one of the amps I've ever owned. Top notch two thumbs up I can't imagine it getting any louder and only have it hooked up with a factory radio. But when I get a aftermarket head unit and run it at 2 ohm it will probably be the best overall system I ever owned JBl out did themselves here. For a amp this impressive under 200 you'll be a fool to even look at anything else. Hats off Harmon. Thanks sonic electronix for such a great deal.

Quality speakers

The infinity speakers are good quality speakers they make Make a good quality Sound They are awesome Five stars

had 2 of the older modle

Had 2 of the older model subs. Second set of subs i owned first set were some cheap Alfasonik but they were still good but switched cars so i switched subs. Loved them till they blew but lasted around a year and a half.

Works great with my two JBL 1214's

I put this amplifier in my Camaro Powering two twelve inch subs. It has more than enough power to fill the car, but don't expect to be able to hear your music two blocks away. It is easy to set up and has a very useful suite of features. Overall excellent quality and good price. It doesn't look flashy, but I don't need it to. Would definitely recommend for use with JBL's 1400 watt subs

Surprisingly good subs.

After losing some RF p2-10's, I put these in because of the great deal from Sonic. In comparison to both sets of P2's i've had, and other subs my friends have had, the infinitys take it within the class, and hang with the upper class. They hit much higher frequencies than the P2's. They respond very well even at low volumes. Great to have if you want a small amount of power, but still remain incognito with most bass going into the cabin, not on the street. They go great in a sealed box and each week as i break them in, they just get better. Once again, these subs hit a wide variety of frequencies, which is very important to me. For the price, CANT BEAT EM.

Big punch in a small package.

I installed one of these in my daughters VW bug. It makes an incredible amount of bass for one single 10 with great overall sound for all types of music.

Great buy. Great seller!

This subwoofer kicks a$$. I've owned nothing but this quality.

Nice sub

This subwoofer hits very hard. Bass notes are really tight. Visually, very appealing.

Good 10" sub

Have used this at a second home as a bedroom subwoofer, For a smaller room this is a great subwoofer. It hits loud enough to he heard and still is affordable. It is installed in a sonosub design.

Good subwoofers for the price.

I have two of these with an mb quart fxi600 amp. They sound pretty good. I think they would sound a lot better in a sealed box, maybe even louder.

I wanted some decent bass...

I got some pretty awesome bass and a ton more power than I was expecting. Have had 0 issues, and have maxxed this thing out for 2-3 hour drives. It never stutters, it always hits hard, and remains clear. Definitely glad I went with this. If you're considering a 500 watt amp, this is it for the money.

Great Sub

This sub is great quality. Nice heavy rubber surrounds, stiff poly cone, and a magnet / motor assembly that would make many 15" subs jealous.

Because of space limitations, I placed the subs in too small a box, approx 0.5 cf each, stuffed with polyfill. The quality is amazing, but SPL leaves something to be desired. Because these subs EBP is near 50, they would work better in a larger sealed, or even ported box. Wish I'd have put these in a ported box, I have a hunch the SPL and sound quality would be amazing.

I have an Aura 4 channel amp, running each sub bridged at about 250 watts per channel. They handle the power effortlessly, though the small sealed box helps keep excursion lower than the power would suggest. They look great, a quality Harmon/JBL/Infinity product all the way around. Thumbs up!

Great sub

Great sub especially for rock. Powered by 1300A in a custom box I built. Will hit everything I want it to, definitely need a amp with good controls though for perfect tweaking.

What a deal!!

I was considering purchasing this amp for the full $399.99 retail price several months ago. I waited and SonicElectronix had it for (cheaper) so I jumped on it immediately and I'm glad I did. This is a compact amp that will fit just about anywhere you would want to install it. It features some great tuning features and a lot of power. If anything the power is underrated on this unit rather than overstated like so many amps on the market today. The high-level input adapters are appreciated since I installed it off the rear speakers. The remote turn-on feature is nice because I don't have a dedicated remote turn-on line from my factory radio.

I did have an issue with a loose connection internally in the amp. I sent it back to SonicElectronix and am awaiting the replacement.

Oh my god !

This sub is crazy! It hits so hard and sounds amazing hands down and I listen to my music all the time and I drive a lot. I think my amp is only a 250 watt amp and it makes my side mirrors do waves and my windshield in the front too! I had a sealed box and it sounded good but not too loud then the box broke and I have up fixing it and I bought a sealed cheapie box and damnnnnn what a difference it's so loud I have to turn the volume down to keep my ears working ! I have a Alpine cde-133bt head and Sony old school amp from 1996 with the 1060w sub that sits in a build your own box box. Amazing product and it can take a beating heavy speaker too.

Good product

Very pleased with the performance of this speaker. It is what I expected.

Pleased

I would have gotten the 1062w had I known they were available, they allow drop of ohms. Great woofer, clean sound.

good sound

Good sound, i had a few $$$$ more to spend so i traded for the kappa's. Never been happier.

UNIQUE FLASHY AND NICE BUT..........

its nice to have endless options, real world power over manufacturer, nice looks, small, stays cold, but ive had a few and emailed harmon they are know for memory issues digital setting don't always stay. also the soft start on it doesn't work well. still has a pop other amps don't in my car. also in high level it takes an eternity to turn on after radios on. sound is decent thanks to options. basically i think there are better amps if you can deal without the nice flashy looks. my kicker cx600.1 sounds 1000 time better turns on instantly has no pops and put out same power.

Awesome amp, HUGE BANG for the buck !!

This was the first JBL amp I have ever bought. After a few months of "thinking" about it and reading several reviews, I decided to take the plunge. I am NOT in ANY way disappointed. Both the power of the amp, and sound quality (if you tune it the way they recommend) are both impressive. Installation was easy, tuning was easy to do, although I felt the step by step instructions were mildly vague in a couple of areas, taken a moment to look things over they were easy enough to figure out. I do intend to buy at least one more of these and a 5 channel JBL amp for my Suburban. (once I convince my wife that is...lol) I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this amp...no doubts at all. Also, Sonic, as always, shipped fast and free....Thanks guys!

GEAT SUB!!

This sub sounds amazing. It is in 2009 Chevy HHR. I bought this sub because of price. You get way more than you paid for. Metallica And Justice For All sounds amazing. It handles rap i.e. DMX just as well as it does heavy metal.

A lot of power in a small package!!!

First off it should be noted that I am a HUGE car stereo fanatic and usually only deal with HIGH end and competition level equipment like JL Audio, Rockford Fosgate, Creacendo Audio, DC Audio, Sundown Audio etc. etc and so naturally I was skeptical about this amp at first but when I saw the price drop on Sonic and based on other reviews along with Sonics own dyno test of the amp Im glad I purchased it. Its very small but packs a huge punch. I currently have it installed in a 2014 Infiniti Q50 Hybrid with 2 12" JL Audio 12TW1 Subwoofers in a sealed JL enclosure @ 2ohms and this little amp really hits hard. I am really impressed with the features of the amp and being able to change the curves on the fly is a plus. The fact that the amp has both high and low level inputs means I dont need to put a high-to-low, just run the feed from the factory sub right into the JBL and its done. The calibration CD it comes with makes level matching a sinch. The only negative this product gets is the fact that it DOESNT come with the wireless bass knob... And you can forget about finding it online too.... I searched for 2 weeks and finally found it on Amazon UK but at a hefty price tag (80$). It was worth it though as this remote is wireless which means NO WIRES TO RUN. It paired easily with the amp and really makes a difference as it doesnt asjust the gain like alot of other remotes but actually changes the sub curve... Did I meantion its wireless?? I would definately recommend this amp to anyone looking for some big bass in a small package without the big price tag. JBL is a name you can trust. By the way the amo is rated at 500 watts but youre easily getting over 900 watts @ 2ohms. Im happy and i plan on getting the 4 channel when I get the chance.

Hard Hitting Subs

First off i would recommend these subs i seen the negative reviews about the sub comming apart ive had mine for 4 years now maybe there were to many watts going to it. The good thing about Infinity is they produce great bass at lower frequencies. I've never had any problems with mine have mine paired with the older model infinity amp and both still going as strong as the day i bought them.
PROS: they hit low an highs really good good response and durrability very strurdy and stong subs
CONS: none

great sub

Sounds good looks good shallow enough for a truck box very responsinve and I've never had problems with Infinity anything.

JBL ms-a5001

I'm using this little amp in a Jeep Wrangler jk 4 door. It fits nicely under the passenger seat for a clean look. I'm using it to push a single 12w6v2 in a slot ported box. It matches well with the sub. It has just enough power to push it to its limit. I'm really happy with this purchase. Great price, and fast shipping.

Must be a body in the trunk

This sub is a beast. It loves that clean power and will perform all day. I don't think it likes bass boost however so opt to turn the gain all the way up before you even think of touching the bass boost.

I'm currently running one 10" in a .73cu.ft. box w/ polyfill in a Toyota Tacoma single cab, rear facing behind the passenger seat off of ~230wrms. Quite a tight fit but all things considered it sounds amazing. The build quality on this thing is ridiculous - completely overdone for the power rating.

This sub is definitely geared towards sound quality. Not that it doesn't get loud... it's just more of an elegant driver. It will shake your mirrors and rattle your fillings, even more so in say, a hatchback. The acoustics inside a single cab truck aren't great by any means, but with a little time and effort adjusting the amp / HU, this thing will not let you down. I could only imagine the ridiculousness two twelves of these would deliver.

Definitely worth every penny. Definitely worth more. :)

Great Product

Easy to use and setup. Hi/Low Level converter wasn't needed for installation. Clean power and does a great job powering 12". The wireless bass knob is neat feature, but a bit quirky.

Best amp ever owned

Plain and simple the looks the simplicity the features the DSp the power everything is amazing and perfect I love this amp I own 3 it's worth every penny and it will never be beat louder and way cleaner than my kicker cx1200.1 pushes my soundqubed hds312 to the max way way way under rated power

Amazing amp and clean sounding amp! I like the fact that there's an output level adjustment and a separate input adjustment. Also, there is no bass boost +1.

clean easy sexy perfect

clean insane settings just awesome onf of the niceset easiet amps yuoull ever own!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Works but not for long

Bought this amp, I found it very difficult to set up, even following the instructions... it worked well and after about 8 months the screen stopped displaying. I didn’t pay attention to it as it still worked well. Traded in my car and I was unable to set it up without the screen working. Paperweight now.

Awesome severely under rated amp.

Small footprint, easy to setup, lots of settings, and capable of around 300RMS over rated pushing a 2 ohm load. The 4-channel version is notorious for issues, but this mono version seems solidly built.

Great amp..clean..stays cool 2 ohm..Harmon Kardon..design..WARNING..digital input level locks in after one try..so get it right..if you change head unit..it will have to have the same inpedense output..read the book..use the CD..

Quality Product

Wow! About all I can say about my recent experiences with Sonic Electronix and JBL. I am running 2 JBL GT5-15's 2 MS A5001 JBL monoblock amps, one on each sub. Signal coming off of the stock head unit in a 2000 Toy Camry. The amps are barely idling and the subs are still tight as the day I bought them. Taking it easy on them until they break in, but judging by the quality of the speaker and it taking some time to break in, I can tell this system is going to last. The bass response of the subs is tight and powerful the amps are clean and efficient. Once again Sonic and JBL exceed expected standards in quality product product cost and always great customer service. Thank you Sonic JBL

They are GREAT!

Really great speakers. You will not regret it just buy them and see.

Great Product and Great Service

I searched for months for the perfect amp. I was looking for sound quality and value. This amp is a ridiculous value. Forget about alpine. They're great amps but they don't touch the value here. This thing is super sophisticated and it's rated at 500 watts but it puts out closer to 850 clean watts. I don't have a super duty charging system so I needed something efficient and this is definitely efficient. JBL far exceeded my expectations. Especially for the price. By the way it's CEA rated.

love it

this is not a amp that will blow out a window... but wow does this thing sound great... its very small and the sq is incredible for the price... it is not the loudest amp ive had but its the smallest and best sounding

By 3vilpanda on September 27, 2015 Verified purchase

Just as good as my other Class D sub amps..

This amplifier is such a little gem. Its ultra compact and puts out just as much power as my JL Audio amps, and in my opinion.. sound better! Its stronger.. hits harder and you can dial in the frequencies very easily. Great buy!

WOW

THIS THING WAS AWESOME INSANE AMOUNT OF SETTINGS CLEAN EASY TO USE SO BEAUTIFUL TO LOOK AT WISH IT STILL WAS MADE

Great product

Great price little dated but still performs rather nicely🤔on a pair of dated 10 inch CVs!

Easy to Use Crossover Points but thats all.

I've owned this amp for two years, I recently upgraded to a hifonics brx 1600.1D.

Pros: Easy to set the Gain
Digital Crossover Points
Compact Size

Cons: hi-level inputs known to fail
Wireless bass knobs never paired correctly

Failed after two years, with an error code of 04! JBL and Sonic Support have no idea what this code means and with no resolve I moved to a Hifonics BRX 1600.1D -- Problem Solved

Twice as nice.

I recently purchased 2 of the JBL MS-A5001 digitally processed amps. I am running one each on JBL GR5-15" subs in two sealed single enclosures. The bass is so deep warm rich tight and clean from the processing in these amps. Still pushing everything with a stock head unit in a 2000 TOY Camry. Plenty of output room left on the Amps. Run them for hours and they are hardly warm let alone get hot. Sonic once again provides quality products with the best prices.

Clean, Tight, Deep Bass

Perfect in a sealed box for the clean, tight and deep bass in rock and jazz. Paired with a JBL GTR-601, it hit harder than most double sub boxes that ever heard. After about 10 hours of play the sound got noticeably sweeter, as most speakers do after a break in period. You would have to spend over twice as much to get a fraction of better sound.

By Charles on February 24, 2016 Verified purchase

Best bang for the Bucks

I've owned Infinity subs for a long time. These subs pound! The subs are highly effecient so they don't require a ton of power like most subs. I've owned a set of these for about 4 years and their still rockin. So I purchased a single 10 inch for another car and same outcome they pound.

Great JBL MS-5001 Amp & Great Service from Sonic Electronix

first I want to point out that Sonic Electronic made unfortunate problem I had worth having because of there customer service! A few months back I bought a JBL MS-5001 amp and the very first time I turned it on after the install the amp made some RCA input noises? so I called Sonic for a RA (return authorization) number and boxed up the Amp and had it ready to ship, Well I went on a two week vacation and when I came home and seen the box still where i left it I realized that I forgot to take the Amp to UPS before I left, I was worried that it would now have to be repaired and not just replaced since now it is past the 30 day return policy, I felt that Sonic went out of there way to help me by going a head and sending me a brand new one anyway..... The JBL MS-5001 is even better than I had hoped it would be running a single 4 ohm DVC 12" Sub at 2 ohms and does not even get warm after pounding that 12 all day.... very happy ...

For the price you get pretty clean bass

For me this was at first a little dissapointing. But it think it's because the last sub I had to compare it to was an original jlw3 that would easily handle 600w rms. I have a 2004 tahoe and if I had to do it again I'd either go with two 10s or 1-2 12s. In all honesty though it gets loud enough if you place the sub in the correct location and sounds great. Im happy and I'd definetly buy again.
