Pros & Cons

Pros

It's well-suited for smaller vehicles (think compact/subcompact sedans not duallys) inverted it under the rear bench seat to get a lil extra out of it.

Amp kits comes with ring terminals, but * terminals are a bit more versatile. The bass for the sub is also maxed out. It looks like a gaming console, but this sub/amp provided more than i was expecting.

The subwoofer puts out tight, punchy bass and comes with a variety of settings that make fine tuning easy. It provides just enough power and bass to even out the sound and give concert quality audio in a small spaces.

Not as impressive as a 12 sub but good sound from a sealed 8 sub. Will not rattle the windows but will produce a great mid and low bass. One thing about this is that it doesn't have a car shaking ability.

The bass boost feature is a bit of a mystery and i am tryung different settings to see how it improves things. Good bass quality is good. If you want to make sure that your low end keeps up when you crank the volume and you have just enough to “feel” ...  Read More



Cons

Not my first sub, so. Definitely going to return this and get myself something else. Bass is non-existence in this speaker. No bass control for that price. Sounded like complete garbage.

Quality


The spud quality is awesome and for the size it hit’s nicely!


Very solid product, sounds great, won’t blow your doors off but definitely completes the sound system.

Price


It sounds amazing and for the price you can't beat the quality


But with that said, for the price, size, etc it’s a great product.


But if you want some extra bass to add to your stock system, pay the money for this.

Packaging/appearance


The box was resealed when i got it.


Nice to have amp and sub in one small package

Competitiveness


First off, my installer says this jbl is better than the similar kicker model.


- slim design- there are cheaper versions from other brands, but this one is definitely worth the money.


My buddy has the same size but different brand and this blows it away.


It may cost a bit more than its competitors but harman (jbl's parent company) makes quality products.

    It kicks harder than i thought it’s a rest compact suba little hard to set up if you don’t know what you’re doing since it requires less power


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    What i did was just get a fuse holder from autozone got a 15 amp fuse and some red 12 gauge wire one end to the battery and the fuse holder somewhere accessible inside the car


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I grinder a bare metal spot on an already existing bolt hole nearby for my ground and then i wired the sub rca cables from head unit sub output to the sub


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    And generally the remote power is a blue or blue and white cable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After that the sub should cut on you might have to switch the auto turn on feature
