Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


The v3 features a redesigned motor and suspension for even better excursion. It handles the low-end frequencies better than previous versions while maintaining the rugged durability NVX is known for.
Carbon Fiber adds extreme stiffness without the weight. This prevents flexing and tearing of the cone in its 23mm excursion, ensuring your bass stays tight and accurate even when your windows are rattling.
It’s a massive jump. The 15" version moves nearly 50% more air than the 12". If you want that "wind in your hair" feeling and a system that can be heard from blocks away, the VCW152v3 is your weapon of choice.
The 3-inch 4-layer coil is already a high-power beast. By keeping it at 3", NVX keeps the moving mass light enough to stay musical, while the 4-layer cooling technology handles the 1500W RMS without overheating.
While it can certainly win local "loudest car" contests, it's designed to sound good while being loud. It’s the perfect choice for someone who wants competition-level volume in a daily driver.
Yes. NVX offers the VCW152v3RC recone kit for this subwoofer. You don’t have to throw it away or send this sub back for warranty purposes. NVX got it covered.

Just as advertised !!!

I have this hooked up to a Hifonics 1100.1 d Brutus amp pushing 1000 rms and it beats the block hard!! Hits incredible lows and all around great sound! Great price and fast shipping sonic is the best!!!!

Amazing Subwoofer

Has a very good feel and structure very solid. Large cone area much better than average stitching and craftsmanship. Mine sounded amazing squeezed the trunk of a VW Golf but you will be heard, Make sure you give it accurate power because of that new motor rating wattage requirements I had mine going for 7 months at around 1200 watts and finally the voice coil was shot.

Amazing Deal! So Far So Good

I bought this sub to install in a friend's car. I bought it with the free ported sub box deal for a fantastic price (Although it didnt fit in the box so I had to sand it down by about 1/2") Regardless this thing suggests about 900 Watts RMS in a ported box (I ran it off of a Rockford Fosgate 750-1D). Sound clarity is amazing and it gets some seriously crushing lows. Its almost as loud as my 2 15" Kicker CVR's in just one woofer! Overall great sub, i would definitely recommend it!

Best deal on the net

I put on of these 15's in a ported box hooked up to a Hifonics 1000 watt RMS amp and WOW! I have used Sounstream, JL, FI Audio, Ascendant Audio, and a bunch others and this is right up at the top. You will not find a better deal anywhere, period.

Best sub I've had

I have this sub running at 1 ohm on a BRX1100.1D mono block

Sub says it's rated at 850-1000 watts rms
But nvx undertakes their speakers so in sure it can handle more cuz mine BANGS and no clipping or distortion
ALSO I have it on a ported box which this sub recommends using a ported/vented box

Unbelievable

I have this sub running at 1 ohms with my Re audio monoblock 1500 amplifier and its the cleanest most powerful sub I've ever heard. I highly recommend it.

Best subwoofer I have ever owned.

I install car audio and have for the last 13 years, this sub surprised me in the best of ways. It looks amazing and sounds even better, I have turned everyone that hears it into a NVX consumer. I have one in a custom 2.4 cu ft ported box tuned to 40 hz and my SUV flexes everywhere lol. SQ and SPL is unmatched oh and it is taking over 1000 watts like a champ! Give it good clean power and you will be living in your car lol. Buy NVX and support the next big thing to happen to the mobile electronics world before they realize I would have paid 400 for this sub haha. Amazing amazing amazing.

NVX VCW152 - 5 star

Because of budget issues it will take a very long time to finish my orders & I intend to order every item before beginning the install so I don't have to redo anything, hopefully. The NVX VCW152 is everything as described at sonic and at a extremely good value, especially with a free tuned box. It does have a heavy triple stacked magnet with a rubber magnet wrap as in most high grade subwoofers. To leave this review I have to guess on durability. I give it a 4 star only because there is no re cone kit but for the price I'm not complaining. I'd avoid cheaper subs that hide the magnet.
