Beats Kicker!

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

We've always done Kicker, I have 2 10's in a 2dr coupe powered by a Soundstream trx700xx. These things hit pretty hard! I could've gone 12's but too much bass for me, for their entry level couldnt b happier and didnt require much power. These are by far a great product for budget and bass.

Tons of bass

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

No need for more bass unless your goal in life is to shake neighborhoods and cause your own hearing loss. I drive this with 350 watts rms, inside my trunk and never felt like more was needed. Great sub.

sounds spectacular

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

I have a bachelor's degree in sound design, so I have particular tastes. I already had installed db series door speakers in my car, and really just wanted to complete the set, hoping that it would be a good match. It was. I'm only running 100W to each voice coil, so it's a little underpowered, but is perfect for what I wanted. It is full and deep, with a smooth transition into the mid-bass range. Response is tight and clean, no muddiness. I built a custom enclosure for it, which is slightly larger than what the literature recommends, but it is sealed up tight, no air leaks. Don't put this in a ported or bandpass box. Put it in a sealed enclosure, and throw lots of clean power at it. The results are impressive. I was not interested in ghetto bumping, just in clean, hyper-realistic sound reproduction, and I could not be happier with how this experiment turned out.

Great Subs

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

This subs is great. Its very clean . It hits very hard and deep for a 10. I love it. the sound quality is great and it also can get loud. and doesnt require alot of power. I got this bad boy in a bandpass box with about 480rms to 2 10's and these things rock..

Awsome sub

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

Installed this baby in a super crew sound sealed box and put it in my 2005 GMC Sierra 2500HD. I am pushing it with a Rockford Fosgate 500 watt amp running in parallel @ 2ohms and it sounds great. Cant go wrong with this sub.

good sub for the money

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

this is a very good sub for the money installed 2 10s into 2 .66 sealed box with Rockford Fosgate Prime R1200-1D hits very hard and sound very clear. Would recommend them to any one im sure there are better subs out there but not at this price. Sonic is a great place to do business always fast shipping

The following review is for a previous version (DB1040DVC).

These woofers are excellent drivers providing really good bass sound. I certainly am happy that I bought them for my sub-woofer.
