Alpine SWA - 12S4

Good Sub

This is a good sub. I would recommend it.Alpine has always been a good brand and for the price this is a really good sub. Haven't had any problems with it and you don't need a lot of power to get it to hit. If you want some good bass to round out your system this works.

Wow

Wow. Absolutely under rated. These in a 4^3 box ported to 32hz and they're louder than my single 15" l7 and 2 12" type R's in a ported box.

Very good sub for the price. would recommend to everyone.
they're windshield flexing a nissan altima.

Awesome Sub

Fantastic Sub, any sub in the right box will sound awesome, but this sub hits hard. Two of these in a 3.8cube box has change dancing in my cup holder. The only thing i dont like is the leads are not woven into the spider, but what do you expect for 55$? Recommend these to anyone.
