I caught the speaker on sale for $49.99 and what a deal that is. I always liked Kenwood but I never really owned too many other products so I'm really impressed with this subwoofer. I'm impressed with Best buy being able to offer it for $49 but more so impressed with how the speaker sounds. Smooth and clear base and I only have a fairly reasonable amplifier pushing it I would definitely recommend this product.

I bought the to run in a home theater setup. I had limited space so I wanted to run a clam shell, push/pull isobaric setup with 4 of these. Got them loaded in 1.25 cuft ported boxes. Running a Behringer iNuke 1000dsp amp. The amp is 2 ohm stable and i am running the parallel. Around 330W rms to both pairs. Using test tones with the current port setup I am able to hear 23hz and up. I may play with the port size and see I can get them to generate tone at lower freqs. It's a great setup for movie explosions and music in the living room. these will be hidden behind grill cloth in a entertainment center I am building around my projector screen.

Haven’t fully tested them as it’s been too cold to stay outside and tune my amp. But give decent bass for low price. Pretty impressed!

I buy these every year for $35 from BB on Black Friday. I have 4 of them in my SUV on 1700watt RMS amp, and blow them up fairly frequently so its nice to have a stock pile on hand.
They are what they are advertised to be, and perform accordingly, I'm just hard on things, and show them no mercy. Well worth the Black Friday price point all day long IMO.

Upgraded from 1 12inch Kicker to 2 12inch Kenwood Subs. They hit super hard, looks great. Very happy. Pushing them with a 1000 watt kenwood mono amp. Had Daniel the installer at Northwest Crossing install them. His work is top notch, I drive 45 mins just to have him work on my 2016 Challenger.

I did not buy these for a car, but for my 1982 Rockola Jukebox. They sound amazing in the Jukebox. The sound is deep and full of bass. I bought an new amp for the jukebox and they both work prefect together.

Had these for a year now, bought two of them in October and they been really reliable pushing hard the only problem I’ve received from them is pushing it over their limit causing a little smell but haven’t received any actual problems like rattling or any internal damage, I still using them daily and they bump hard

Great sounding quality great build quality and beyond what I thought it could take power wise I have two kfc 12s on a skar rp 2000 at 2 ohms would recommend that you build a custom box for these subwoofers though

I bought this, a single subwoofer because I only wanted one since I just wanted a bit of extra punch to help the stock (4) 6x9 on a ram plus my budget was limited so the best I could do for space was .58 sq ft On the box but I was surprised of the results since I was looking for a 10” not a 12” due to the space sounds absolutely great for an upgrade not braking the neighborhood window glasses.

An inexpensive subwoofer I put in a custom in ceiling enclosure in my garage. Powered with an amp from an old free-standing powered sub. Did the trick for me. Great value, and good quality for the right application.
