Bass knob was not in the box. I ended up having to purchase one separately. The quality of sound is not the best.

This has been a great system has never had any issues

With all the money i spent on this speaker i am really disappointed. I bought what the technician recommended to me and ended up spending 600 dollars and my speakers sound the same as they did before. They rattle if i go above 10 on the volume and make a horrible ticking sound. I’m really disappointed in my purchase and wish i could return these products

This is the 2nd sub I’ve bought and the first one quit working twice. Warranty did fix it but quit working 3 months later.

I purchased 2 kicker hideaway's for my 2015 f-150 super crew. I knew within the first 2 minutes of listening that the sound quality was not what i expected. I'm used to traditional subwoofer sound and this does'nt even come close. In my opinion this produces a muffled sound of bass and not clear bass. I ended up having best buy uninstall and went with something else.

Bought this product for my daughter's birthday, had to find an outside installer because Best Buy was scheduling into November due to COVID delays. Discovered the speaker was faulty and package was missing parts, Best Buy will not refund money because it is "outside their policy".

This was such a mess the amp broke in 3 weeks and I had to bring it back for a trouble shoot and they said it’s fine then 20 mins later it broke again, but even tho I got the 3 year warranty I can’t return it since it’s been over 15 days super upset with it

Great deal on open box powered sub, can’t wait to install, perfect condition

Disappointed in the speaker was expecting some decent bass but my stock sub from the factory sounded just as good unfortunately I tried to install out of site so return was impossible got a 10” bazzoka you replace it just wish I’d done that first it’s much better

gabby (sp) at the store was great! she went out of her way to help me!

I drive a Chevy Avalanche, and as those of you who own similar vehicles know, the articulation of the rear seats is important to retaining the full utility of your vehicle. My head unit is a Sony Mex xb100bt which puts out a real 40 wpc and I'm running Polk db651s in the doors. The setup sounded nice, but was lacking in the lows. I did a lot of research into adding subwoofers and found that almost all options required some sort of sacrifice in terms of retaining vehicle utility. During my research, I ran across the Kicker Hideaway and similar units and my first thought was that there was no way that such a small unit could provide any sort of appreciable bass, but given the advancements in class d amplifier and speaker technology, I decided to give the form factor a try. I settled on the Kicker unit because, well...it's Kicker. My very first sub setup over 30 years ago was a Stillwater product, so I went with the Hideaway. I installed it under the rear passenger seat and was immediately shocked, for lack of a better word, by what the little Hideaway was capable of. It was fully able to broaden the range of the music that I was listening to. Just based on my subjective comparison to my home system, I'd have to say that the Hideaway does get down into the mid 30hz range. The single Hideaway did not turn my truck into a boom box, but the amount of bass that I was getting was appreciable. I listen to a broad range of music, ranging from classic rock and jazz to hip hop on occasion and did find that that single Hideaway wasn't quite enough for some types of music, so I added a second under the driver side rear seat. Now I'm getting some serious bass. Again, not boom box sort of bass, but a significant bass that is tight and fast that produces an experience that rivals that of my home system. I did buy a 3rd Hideaway to install under the center of the rear seats, but it is still sitting in the box because I think I'm going to return it. With the 2 units alone, the bass is often times too much and I find myself running the sub control on my head unit in the negative numbers, with the gains on the Hideaways set at about the 11:00 position. Most importantly, my back seats still fold all the way down allowing the full use of the midgate, so I've lost no utility at all. As I said, I was really surprised by the performance that the little Hideaway is capable of. Advances in technology have indeed brought to market products that capably fill a niche that needed filling. The combination of the high efficiency (95db)/low impedance woofer and the 150 watt class d amp in the small sealed box makes for some nice bass. The only downside to the Kicker version of this class of products is that in order to use the low level outputs on your head unit, you must use a high level to RCA adapter. It didn't think it was a big deal. The adapter was inexpensive and connecting it only took a couple of minutes. The trigger wire was also too short to get to my head unit, so I had to extend it. I installed mine using an amp kit that came with 8 gauge power leads. I ran the power lead to my battery and to a small distribution block under my dash. It took me about 1.5 hours to get the first one up and running. The second was up and running in about half an hour.

Totally Disappeared 150 watts not enough power, not much better than 6x9 . Not sure why still investigating, Installation is correct .

Only had it for about 2 months and it blew out on me. Used it on medium setting. Buy the for 4 yr. Warranty if you get it like I did.

I have a 2016 Dodge Charger R/T and because I have heated seats with the big cpu box underneath my seats I couldn’t get it installed. The installer was very helpful. I never got to hear it at the store it wasn’t on display.

Bought one that lasted ab 8 months . Then the second didn’t function properly from the beginning so I returned it . Sound quality was terrible. So I returned and got 3 10” kicker compR subs and the kicker 1200.1 amplifier. Couldn’t be happier!

I bought the kicker hideaway back a few days ago and i got it installed at best buy and within an hour after leaving best buy the kicker hideaway blows out. Now i have to wait a week and a half to get it back in to get it checked on.

Disappointed Alpine usually makes a quality product but not in this case sound quality is poor

Not buying this brand again,this lasted like 3 months,its dead,works no more,crap,overpriced,bye

I have had this subwoofer fail twice since ive bought it. the RMA was smooth but not worth it.

No matter how I adjusted it, the sound just hurt my ears
