Not a thumper but sounds good. Perfect for subwoofer replacement on a Jeep TJ. Running it with this https://a.co/d/0oQaNYf

I recently installed this sub in a 2002 Jeep TJ to replace the factory sub. The stock sub had been out for years.This review is from the perspective of the casual music listener. I was basically looking to restore the low end of my audio.What it is:A super inexpensive subwoofer to restore a factory type listening experience. It handles well in those conditions, and I highly recommend it.It has a good build and feels somewhat durable.What it is not:This is not a large sounding sub or a deep bass producing sub for someone that wants everyone within the vehicle to feel their music.If you want to pull your Jeep up to the beach/block party and be the sole boom box for said event, this sub is probably not for you. But, if that describes you, you are probably not looking at $18 subwoofers.In general:There is simply not anything else in this price range that is going to perform any better.It was $18 and arrived at my house the next day. If the thing only lasts a year or two, I’d purchase another one. I could almost buy 5 of these before I reached the cost of other replacement subs for my vehicle.For the Jeep TJ owners:If you need to replace the factory sub and plan on using the factory amp, this seems like a super simple choice. I know of two other replacement subs— only one real one that requires no modifications. They are 4 and 5 times as much as this sub.This is a dual voice coil 4ohm sub. That’s the same specs as the factory sub. The biggest difference is that you will need to drill new screw holes, as this speaker is slightly smaller than the factory sub (6.5 vs the factory 6.75). This sub is also slightly deeper than the stock sub. So I used a pair of pliers to snap off pieces inside the rear of the stock sub compartment. There are videos online showing this action. There are also videos showing the removal of the factory sub console compartment.The whole process took me less than an hour from start to finish. If I had to do it again, it could probably be accomplished in 20mins.

EDIT****Ok, so i wound up putting this on a 3kwatt max amplifier that is capable of sub ohm driving. A big boy amp. i tried it out with a 6" sub from the same series, but in a custom ported box tuned for 55hz. I ran the 8 in a tube enclosure that is about a cubic inch too small. I hooked it all up in parallel so that it dropped down to a single ohm. I ran the amp just shy of half way and it rocked my world for about 10 mins. The 6 whoomped out completely, the 8 handled it like a champ. I felt like i was gunna have a heart attack. The bass was more than i expected from this combination. Now i run just the 8 in a sealed enclosure at about a third of the max volume of the amp. im putting something like 250-270 watts rms through ust the 8 at 2 ohm and its perfect. put a little bump at 100hz and a +6db curve peaking at 50 hz and its perfect. This sub is good, you just need decent equipment and a good tune when you run it. I will update if i blow it up.i actually ended up warping the basket and now the 6" woofer rattles like a sumbitch, but it technically didnt blow. Im super surprised it didnt catch fire. Im now running a re-coned dvc dual voice coil that does like 800 rms with the boss 8inch sub. got something like 600 watts average on the terminals @.97 ohms. its enough to take your breath away in my old single cab ford. The 6 is an interesting sub. I never actually blew it up, it just warped itself under heavy load. I never would expect this from such an inexpensive sub. im going to order another, but its going in a home audio project where it will never see over 100W. They capture bass that is perfect for classic rock and other types of music that use a more tighter sounding kick drums. If you put juice on it in the 60-100 hz range it really kicks hard, so hard it will warp the actual basket. If you are trying to get heavy hits, i would recomend the 8" or bigger. Im 5"9' and i can comfortably fit an 8" tube enclosure behind my seat and drive my single cab 5-speed. The 10 i have in there now sits on the passenger floor lol. no riders for the sake of bass!

I actually bought this to replace the subwoofer speaker in my OG Klipsch Promedia 2.1's. The original sub in the Klipsch was showing its age in how the cone material disintegrated. Not bad for a sound system that's seen daily use since the early 2000's!After doing some research I decided to give this one a go. I have a new amplifier that drives harder than the stock internal Klipsch amp, so I wanted something that could definitely handle it.Installing the sub is as straightforward as any other speaker:1. remove the old and busted speaker.2. mount the new one.3. solder the wires to the connectors.4. plug everything up and let it rip!For a subwoofer of this size I would say this thing really pounds! It does not slouch when it comes to driving the bass. In fact I am now looking at putting a custom backplate on the sub-box because it's trying to shove air out of every crevice in the back, creating a whistling sound when it hits. This is NOT the fault of the product itself, but from my own shoddy workmanship. Had I taken more care to properly re-seal the box after modifying it to work with my amp, this would be a non-issue.The fit inside the Klipsch box is almost perfect: the only caveat I can offer is that getting the speaker grill back on won't happen without some work. Unlike the unit everyone is routing as a direct replacement, this one does not provide the tight fit necessary to simply just squeeze the grill back into place. For me this is a non issue because I keep the unit pointed away from anything that can hit it. But for someone else doing this same thing this may be a deal breaker.All in all I am still happy with the product itself. Maybe someday I'll give it its own custom box, properly done this time, and see just what it really can do. I am already very content with it as is.
