Good sub for the price and size

My trunk is small, so I couldn’t bring myself to put a subwoofer back there. This just barely fit under my seat. For its size, this subwoofer isn’t bad, it adds some good low-end punch. The really deep bass doesn’t hit super hard, but everything else sounds solid. Good OEM+ upgrade, just don’t expect to be making hair stand up with this. If I was okay with losing trunk space, I’d go with something else, but for what I needed, this works well.

Great sound for what i need. Like that it came with a controller that was installed up front so i can make adjustments.Install by Best Buy was professional behind the back seat as requested.

This will add that extra bass that your vehicle may be missing. I added this to my 16’ F150 and there is a difference! It does depend on the type of music you listen to also.
It’s compact, sounds good and great price. Wiring is not very hard either.
Everyone needs and has room in there car for one s

This thing is awesome. Well worth the money for what you get in such a small space. Under my 2016 civic drivers seat. And it hits harder than I expected. I want one for the passenger side now. It’s awesome having all that bass without taking up any spce

My 2021 Toyota Tundra Limited came with the upgraded JBL system but it lacked low end bass in the sub. This Kicker was a fantastic solution to adding a modest amount of subwoofer sound without the need to replace the entire system. Not earth shaking sound but just enough to make the system sound as it should have from the factory.

Excellent Geek customer service and installation. One thing I am coming back on Friday 11/21/25 at 12:00 for another installation. I was hoping the technician in Braintree Massachusetts saved the box and materials for the KICKER HS10 I had installed. I would like to have it please.

Had this installed my 2024 Honda Accord by Best Buy. Loving the sound. Definitely enough thump for what I’m looking for. I sit a little too tall so was unable to install under my seat and chose behind the rear passenger seat. Would recommend to anyone who wants some boom but won’t rattle the car.

Easy to install and only needed to tap in to speakers. No remote wiring needed if you tap into speakers just changing the switch to DC trun on. And fit in my 2015 honda accord no issues just take off the seat for easy installation

For the most part I am happy with this product, but I need to have the installations looked at because when I turn on my rear wiper it turns the sun off!!

I didn’t expect much from this speaker/amp set up, I wasn’t disappointed. Replaced factory sub on 2019 F150 with this, behind rear seat crew cab. Bad idea. I wasn’t Looking for a deep bump/pounding system, but expected more than my factory provided. Wrong.

Was shopping around for a bass speaker and Amp. One custom shop wanted 2,200. Found this on the Best Buy web site. After reading lots of reviews and watching videos I purchased it. Installation was very reasonable(150.00). The amount of bass it provides combined with its compact size and built in amplifier made it a perfect fit for my Dodge Challenger. The optional provided bass knob is a nice touch. It makes it easy to customize your listening experience depending on what genre you choose to listen to. My only critique has nothing to do with the product itself, but the delivery packaging. Best Buy delivered in two days for free, but just stuck a delivery sticker on the product box so there was no mystery as to what was left on my doorstep. Luckily someone was home to retrieve it off of the front porch before it could have been potentially stolen.

Purchased to fill in the lost low end sounds from a 2025 Blazer EV (Standard GM 6 speaker system) - that missing range from 20-100Hz (absent deep bass).
Adjusted Kicker - crossover at 80HZ (Midway), 3db bass boost, Gain (midway) and it works perfectly. Clear reinforced low end sound which is exactly what I wanted.
This is not the setup you want if you are trying to blowup cars and houses around you when you drive by - but to restore the low end to even the response curve - perfect. Clear, no distortion, and just enough boost to slightly feel the lowest end bass - that feeling completely missing from stock audio system.
Happy Camper

I really like the sound quality. It's very easy to use. I'm ready for an upgrade though for sure this is something that you would put under the seat or near the front I would not use this for an overall sound system just a starter but definitely great sound quality to 300 watts. Definitely can't complain.

Your opinion of this subwoofer will greatly depend on your expectations. This will not shake your windows. It will not make you the cool guy cruising through your neighborhood shaking peoples homes. This is merely to add depth to your listening experience. I put this in a 2017 F150 XLT super crew. It adds a lot to my listening experience. Gives a lot fuller sound than not having a subwoofer. There are tons of YouTube videos and forum posts to show you how to hook this up and get it working. If you’re wanting to be seen and heard by other vehicles on the road, put in a legitimate amplifier and subwoofers. If you want to have a more immersive sound just for your own enjoyment, this works great.

Easy to install when hooking up to the factory speaker wire. There are no RCA plugs, but kicker makes an adapter.
As for the subwoofer itself, I put it my civic daily driver and provides ample amount of bass for my liking. I listen to a little bit of everything but mainly countr for reference.
The bass control knob is perfect for finding the right amount of bass and gives the option to essentially turn it off.
I have had two similar setups that were from less reputable brands than Kicker and this sub outperforms them, hands down.

Very smooth and powerful for its small size. Easy install, and has a strong enough case that I wouldn’t be afraid for groceries or something to get sat on it by accident. Considering purchasing another one just for a little more punch.
