these subs!

Don't under estimate these subs. They will blow your ears off. I promise. If you have the right amp. I have an 1800 watt Kenwood and my rearview mirror feel off. My neighbors didn't like me very much. But I would highly recommend these subs to anybody. Even if you have P3 l7"s or solo XS.

great value

Just bought two of these and they hit hard and have good excursion. I have them in a custom bandpass enclosed box at 4ohms with 1200w rms to them these heat up a little but not much great for people just starting.

They Slam

when these came out my friends n i gathered money and i bought 6 12s, 4 10s, 4 15s, for the price, they couldnt be passed up. all my friends are running a pair of these subs with either the brz1200.1 or brz2400.1 brutus amps and they slam hard!! depending on the vehicle the sound difference will vary alot.

for example 2 12s on the 1200.1 will sound way louder in the a car trunk than in an SUV. but four 10s on a 2400.1 will sound way louder in an suv than 4 15s on a 2400.1 in a car trunk. i dont know why the big difference but i asked maxxsonics for the tuning on the amps so all the amps are tuned to run with the subs but even with the same setup, same subs. same amp. same box. same wiring. the sound will vary greatly.

my setup consist of 2 12s on a brz1200.1d in a ported box running off a premier deh-p8mp and memphis wire kit. maxxsonics recommened 4ohms subs be run at 1ohms to get the most out of them and remember these amps are cea-certified so im running 600 TRUE rms to the subs and they take a beating. still havent broken them in but have been raising the volume slowly from 15-20-25-and currently at 30 and have had them for about 45days and i know they have a ways to go to break in, u can just feel that its not at its max but once it is they will slam harder.

BRUTUS ALL DAY AND NIGHT !!

Do not hesitate. These subs will rock you! If you want the big boom! Put these babies in a shared 3.4 cubic box with a single slot port tuned at 38 hz in the center of them. I have them running about 1 ohm (box rise 1.1 - 1.2) powered by a second generation ORION 250 HCCA DIGITAL REFERENCE. I will quote my sons reaction when coming 3 blocks away "Dad, it sounds like an earthquake approaching" Now hows that for a review.

Great subwoofer!

I bought one about a year ago, have it in a sealed box, and it sounds GREAT. Gets VERY low, and gets pretty loud as well, I haven't gotten a chance quite yet to hook it up to an amp that will really show it's potential, however, with the amps I have hooked it up to, It's GREAT. I'd recommend to anybody that wants a cheap way to get some decently loud bass in their ride! So far, really haven't found any cons! Love it!

BRUTUS B12D4

These subs hit hard! i have a 5 cube box with these with a hifonics 1200.1 amp... my rear view mirror is about to fall off... Great buy for the money.

great value

I am 14 and have this sub in my room, I only have 150 watts going to it but it still rattles my door and has made things fall off the walls. You can also see my window in my room flexing from out side. It also sounds great and hits the highs and the lows. If you are looking for a cheap subwoofer for you car or room this sub will be great for you. The only thing that worries me is the magnet cover, it seems really cheap and it seems like it is loose.

Wow in a good way

I've always been a kicker fan. I downgraded from a 15 in L7 because I wanted trunk space. So I bought this Brutus 12 inch sub and for $70 it's worth every penny. It sounds great and puts out a lot of bass. It has a good design and looks and feels durable. It's powered by my Rockford amp which is also a plus. Overall I give it 5 stars.

Can you say 152.6 db .

I brought four (4) B12D4's and put them in my 1994 Mazda B4000 truck with a blow through design on two (2) P1000.1's Massive Audio amps and these subs can take all of the power that I'm giving them. In other words DAMMMMNNNNN!!!!
