Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have a 2004 Ford Super Duty quad cab and the stock stereo and speakers were not up to a music lovers standards. I have searched for a couple years for a sub box that would fit this truck. They have plenty on the market that say they fit, but I am here to tell you most of them don't. They either push the speakers up against the back of the seat so the speaker does not have room to operate correctly or you have to remove a functional part of your truck to get them in. This is not an option for most that have super duty trucks because we actually use them. With this kicker/Amp combo unit it fits behind my seat and has plenty of room. I installed it on the passenger side just over the jack with the strap. I must say in the cab of my truck this thing is amazing. I keep my gain almost all the way down and it still evens out the sound from the 4 new Kenwood speakers that replaced the stock speakers. Very happy! My kids think its great that they have vibrating seats now too! Buy it you will like it!

Great value, had it I stalled at Best Buy (cheaper then local shops) and I recommend it specially if your under warranty still best to have reputable company install it. Fits just fine under seat in my Elantra with passenger seat lifted mid ways Compliments my stock speakers perfect, easy to use and adjust

I was going back and forth between this Kicker hideaway and a cheaper underseat enclosed sub and amp from a competitor. I decided to save a few buck and but the cheaper since I wanted just to add a bit of thump/bass to my 2022 Honda Civic sport who owns knows what I’m talking about. Buying the cheaper route was a mistake, sound was horrible so I regretted my buy and bit the bulet and purchased this kicker hideaway. The difference was like night and day. The quality of the kicker hideaway was top notch. The setting in low input and bass on low was enough for me and exactly what i wanted. The install was quite easy being I have no experience installing any stero equipment. I will add pictures of my clean install later.

I went back and forth over matching an amp with a sub, but realized that neither would fit well in my Ram 1500 Quad Cab. I imagined I needed more power that this product would offer, but I was wrong. I put this under the driver's seat and it does exactly what I hoped. Packs a serious punch, but doesn't rattle the windows or make a nuisance down the street. The boom will be felt and enjoyed. Great decision because of the cost, ease of installation, quality, and sound.

Perfect hideaway subwoofer for getting space back, Always have to take my subwoofer box out when I go on vacation so I lose all of my bass. Put this in under the passenger seat will probably move to the back because it has a lot of bass for the size of the package and rattles person in the seat. Sounds really good. But does get distorted on some songs when volume is turned up all the way.

I have a 2015 Toyota Tundra double cab with the entune plus system(no nav). After lots of consideration and research I went with the Kicker Hideaway and am very pleased with it. I had it installed at the local Best Buy here. The install could have went a little better but after calling Kicker support got it dialed in just right. I had it installed in the storage tray under the rear seat on the driver's side. Sounds great!

I wanted a subwoofer that went under my seat so I could utilize all of my truck space. If you want a door-thumping subwoofer that rattles your neighborhood, this is NOT the sub for you; no hideaway sub is going to blow you away. But if you're like me and still want some bump, it's a great package. It gives a conservative amount of bass without being overbearing. It's perfect for someone like me who only wanted to add a little more low end. I suggest you put it under your driver's seat to feel or more. Only real downside is the cost, preventing me from giving it 5 stars. Considering it's so compact and has its own amplifier, it's a great deal, but it still has a high price tag. I was fortunate to find an open box one for more than half off though. If you can find a sale or open box version, then jump on getting this sub.

I looked and looked and did research for hideaway subs. I don’t listen to much rap or hip hop so I do t need a big 12” booming system. I listen to classic and hard rock. Ac/dc, Metallica, Slayer, Led Zeppelin and so on. I find myself having to turn the volume down to 50% as it almost puts out to much bass. I wanted something to fill in the sound and make everything sound full. Boy was I surprised. The build quality is nice and tight, feels like it’s built really well and sounds great. I have it under the front passenger seat in my 2018 Ford Echo Sport. The price is a little high, but the quality of the build and sound show why it’s $300

Crazy how this little 8" speaker/amp made my horribly inefficient 2021 Toyota Tundra's JBL system come alive. Once I figured out the speaker wiring (which was not easy - Toyota), and got the Kicker to work properly, I was beyond impressed. I read many forums and most said to replace the head unit, spend $2000 or more, etc. to even have a decent sound system. They're wrong! The hideaway met all expectations and now I can listen to my music and actually enjoy it.

Works as i expected. Great sound for limited space

Small and little to no space needed to house makes this a great purchase. Little imprint but a great output.

A lot better than I expected. Needed some bottom end to round off my factory system & this delivered beautifully. What I really like (besides the sound) is that Kicker gives you the option to use a switched power source to turn the amp off/on or a high level (speaker wire) to trigger it which saved me some install time. You won't be disappointed if you get this.

I got this for a Mazda 3 and added it to the Bose package. I also substituted Kickers in the doors. Sub was installed in the trunk and it was great to save the space. It added some depth to the system but I ended up leaving the split seat down to get a more noticeable depth to the system. I then moved it onto the back seat right, where it made a real difference before trading in the vehicle a month or so after the original install. So now I have the 2013 Accord with Kickers added in the doors. I unplugged the sub from the Mazda, took out the screws holding the straps in place and left the wiring harness behind. Kicker shipped me a new harness for $35 and I had the hideaway installed under the passenger seat. Now it gives more than enough clear precise base and is totally out of the way and easy to adjust with the remote gain dial. Very happy with the versitility/mobility and would recommend finding a place for it in the passenger commpartment.

I would recommend this to anyone. It changed my whole experience with my stock stereo. It saved me a ton of money and it’s powerful. It sounds amazing and it’s hidden my hatch area of my car.

My 1981 DeLorean has never sounded better! The acoustics are clear and Kick Box provides that solid boost of bass I was looking for! Many others recommended Kick Box so I knew I couldn’t go wrong, and you know what, they were totally right! Having worked in radio broadcasting I have worked in some of the best sounding studios in broadcasting. I needed a product that could perform, and the Kick Box was exactly what I needed to raise the bar in my classic car. Now, not only is she looking great, but sounding great too!!!

I love this unit all in one compact easy to place pretty much any where in the car under the seats mount it up under kick panel sounds really clean specially for the price right amount bass I’ve install 4 of this in my cars one in each car 99 z3m e30 m3 E39 m5 E36 328is coupe

I have a 2015 nissan sentra s with the factory low quality head unit. Which i wanted to keep for its ease of use, factory integration, and stock look to deter theft. I have upgraded the rest of my system with a JL audio RD400 amp driving two kicker 6x9's in the rear deck and two kicker 6.5's in the doors. Due to the factory head unit rolling the bass off at higher volumes and the overall poor quality of compressed music files the system still lacked the depth of true sound. I watched this sub for a year and when it finally went on sale for 195.00 i bought it. Its hook up could not be simpler. I purchased two RCA y adapters and split the signal to the JL amp then cut one end off of the y adapters to connect to the kicker sub. After much time adjusting and more to go i can say this is a very nice unit and performs very well. It is not large enough in size or power to be in the trunk and perform so it is in the cab of my car. It does exactly what I need it to do. My one warning would be this.. if you in your youth have had two 12's and a large fosgate or anything like that, do your self a favor and realize from the beginning this is not that system. It is an 8 with a 150 watt amp in a small enclosure. Once you are honest about what it is and align your expectations with that you will not be upset. Thanks Kicker and Best buy for a great product at a great price.

I was looking for a small subwoofer to enhance the sound of my factory radio and this delivered that. This unit wont be rattling you neighbor’s windows but it delivers quality sound inside the vehicle. Easy to install if you have an idea of what you are doing.

Easy install. Doesn't take up space. Fills the car with more than an acceptable thump. If you're somewhere between intolerance of stock and disdain window shattering rigs like I am, this little unit is for you.

Bought this for our daughter’s car. Great sound, easy to install & compact.
