The perfect powered sub
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've really liked Kicker products for a few years now. When seaching for a small, high quality, and easy to install powered sub, the Hideaway kept coming up. I found hardly any reviews that were less than stellar. It was exactly as advertised. Easy to install, small and fit perfectly, and sounds absolutely amazing. My bass output is 200% better than before. It won't blow the roof off your truck, but it will give you a bunch of good quality bass. Way more than even I need.

love it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this in my dodge dakota quad cab. It is under my driver seat and wow, it is way more powerful than i excpected from its small size and only 150 watt rating. I didnt want to shatter windows just add some bass that i can feel, and this more than does the job. Great product!

Sounds Great!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.installed this kicker hideaway in my 13 honda accord sedan under the passenger seat. i didn't want a sub in the trunk rattling so i decided to have it under the seat and it sounds great, its hooked up to my stock stereo. the bass knob is a great addition, with the knob turned all the way down you would never know theres a sub in the car. some people are saying that it rattles which isnt true and doesnt make sense for the fact that the grill on the kicker doesnt move at all. i also heard the rattling and did some investigating. with the kicker directly under the passenger seat its the bass that rattles the seats cross bar so all i did was move the sub about 2 inches from under that bar and the rattling went away! i did have this installed professionally from a local audio shop and they did a very good job, even mounted the bass knob with easy access. once again the sub sounds great , i was very impressed.

Perfect
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up no large cables no expensive amp box and sub match up. This little 8in 150 watt amp combo puts a punch in my 97 Chevy Silverado where there is no room for eveything. Make my music sound 100x better with my 6 1_2 in the doors with tweets. Highlt rexommend. Also with rhe turn knob to crank it or just kill the bass is perfect.

Buy This!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been modernizing my aging 01 F350 supercab. Installed a Kenwood 4 din touchscreen deck and 4 new jbl 6x9 in the 4 doors. That was a great sound improvement but needed some more low end help. Installed this kicker hideaway under the drivers rear jump seat and started fiddling with the staggering amount of settings on the Kenwood deck. After about 4 weeks of good sound,but not Great sound, I turned the sub output in the deck from 2 to 10. Holy moly, the truck is filled with amazing seat and mirror shaking bass. I was not pushing enough signal to the kicker! Very happy with the clear solid thump and super low rumbles this compact unit delivers. Be sure to install the remote gain control for quick access to compensate for inconsistent low end from track to track (T-Pain vs country mixes)

Excellent small sub
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little sub. Nice tight clean bass. Tried it different locations i.e trunk, middle console of rear seat and for sure sounds best in my car under passenger seat. Only small downside is: bass can be a little strong for passenger in that seat but can be adjusted with remote but feel mine sounds better without remote plugged in. Install super easy, little more expensive than other units but I think it's worth it especially if you can get open box like I did. Not window shaking bass but perfect it you want to round out a system. Recommend. Go buy it.

Awesome for the money!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is really nothing to brag over, however compared to most cars stock subs, they are significantly better. Small enough for tight spaces, The install was super easy and forward. FOR Now im very happy, will update if anything happens in future.
