  1. Brother91225 –

    When your car didn’t come with a premium sound system, this really makes it sound a lot better.

  2. Elliot –

    Bought this for wife’s car. Was fairly easy to install and fit perfectly under the passer seat of her 2014 Chevy Cruze. Would definitely recommend!

  3. WardenB –

    I bought this with a budget stereo system in mind for my Mini Cooper, very pleased with sound quality!

  4. Xandr44 –

    Had one of these for 5 years before it blew….the replacement lasted a few months….decent sub but not as reliable as I thought,,,Replaced with Kicker combo and now I’m bumpin’ like bumper cars……

  5. Topless –

    This subwoofer barely fit under the passenger seat but added great sound to the convertible’s stereo system. The remote controller is a nice feature that allows tuning on the fly. The connections are simple. It would have been nice to have a basic wire installation kit included. Overall, this is a nice subwoofer at an affordable price.

  6. Dome –

    Got this to fit under the seat of a 10th gen Civic Coupe and fits well under the passenger seat. The seat coils vibrate under certain frequencies which can be annoying. It’s not a ton of bass, but it is an improvement over the stock subwoofer in a 10th gen Civic Coupe equipped with the factory subwoofer in the trunk lid, even more so at higher volumes where the factory sub would roll off. I disconnected the factory sub and am just running this little guy.

    Ultimately I am looking for better bass in the lower end and I knew this likely wouldn’t be the optional choice for that. I’ll be replacing this with a proper 10″ in a box in the trunk and putting this in a 2nd gen Tacoma or a Fiesta hatchback, which ever it fits best in.

  7. Tariq1 –

    I had a crew cab truck. Had it under my seat. Could barely hear it.

  8. WatersEdge –

    This subwoofer provides just enough punch in my daughters sports car.

  9. Bucky –

    awesome subwoofer for Tight spaces sounds great easy to install

  10. Brad –

    I upgraded the sound system in Jeep Gladiator. Fits under seat nicely. Huge improvement.

  11. showboat –

    what a loud amp for your buck. still not loud hey its loud if you ask me.

  12. Atilman –

    Best small sub to hide in small places. This thing rocks. Not gonna vibrate your brain but to add some lows…perfect. I have had tons of expensive set ups but was super pleased with this for the money.

  13. MaCDeSy24 –

    I bought this sub to get a premium sound out of my factory radio, nothing crazy. The sound was decent but not premium, under powered. On top of this AND most import is the speaker BLEW OUT after 45 days. Returned and will not be buying again. Plus wasted time and money on install I won’t be getting back

  14. ballar217 –

    Barely could tell the difference with this subwoofer under my seat. Not worth it..

  15. Life –

    The subwoofer is an excellent product sound was clear and no noise. Music you can hear loud and no extra background noises. I’m going to purchase more product in the future. I’m one happy and satisfied costumer.

  16. stev –

    Impressive output for the size and helped clean up the otherwise stock system by taking the low frequencies off the door speakers. don’t expect to rattle anything with this, but that’s kind of the point, it made for much cleaner midbass vs running the door speakers full-range. Installed in the passenger footwell of a Miata and you can’t even tell its there once the floor mat is in place!
    It sounds decent but doesn’t play much below 45hz. I’m probably going to add a sub in the trunk or a tactile transducer (bass shaker) to augment, but it’s a great start and keeps the image up front.

  17. Ps5guy –

    Wife’s Jeep needed alittle more bass.. this was prefect for the space in the back under the mat.

  18. SMac –

    Was not sure if we should go with this brand or the Kicker. I will post a follow up after our install takes place. Best Buy might want to increase installers since install is a month out.

  19. chent –

    Speaker was awesome until it blew out for no reason, using normally and it randomly went out. Now distorted and seeing if can be repaired. 4 months old. smh.

  20. Montecarlo1987ALEE –

    Bought for a 1965 chevy c20 sounds great perfect for the space and the price is well worth it. This was not my first choice but am glad I got it and it all worked out. I installed the unit myself and it was very easy.

  21. JoeMontgo –

    I added this to my Alfa Romeo along with an LC2. It adds the much needed bass into the stock system.

  22. Homies –

    This sounds great! Adds that additional bump with some good tunes.

  23. Bhavandbougie –

    Great small sub! Packs a lot of power and bass and fits perfectly beneath my passenger seat. The install team also provided a knob to adjust the bass, which provides great control depending on what mood I’m in. Better alternative to having a huge box in your trunk!

  24. Pemrick79 –

    These things are complete junk. 1 st one blew out in 2 months. 2nd one lasted even less and I now have sitting around reminding me of my money I wasted on this thing. Installed by best buy geek squad so you can’t say user error here. Just junk crap product.

  25. BearDawg –

    Very clear and pristine sound sonically sounds just fantastic in my 2001 Chevy Corvette. Fits well under the passenger seat. I have to give Best Buy a 5 Star review on this and another 5 stars for the price which was a great deal!

  26. Mag727luckyd45cal –

    This thing does not put out much bass. I returned due to poor quality. Not like alpine to put out this kind of stuff.

  27. PittsburghDad –

    Older purchaser, not looking for earth-shaking 12-in subs like I would have in my teens and twenties. Really adds a great sound when mounted inside the cabin of my 1975 Hurst Olds and fills in what was missing from my 6x9s while still letting me enjoy the sounds of the Flowmaster exhaust rumble. Very easy to install.

  28. TomsJeep –

    Installed this in our Jeep Wrangler JK 2-door, right behind the center console. It sounds great and is also very compact. Highly recommend this if you have limited space for adding a sub.

  29. gpespi –

    nice sound………………………………………..

  30. JP21 –

    Great sound installed by Oscar and 190. Only thing that fit in my el Camino.

  31. dlowe311 –

    Just enough bump in the trunk!! You will want to listen to all your favorite songs all over again!

  32. Paul –

    I bought this guy to boost the bass without giving up space, it gives decent bass for what it is.

  33. Thomas –

    Solid amp for those wanting a tight bass without the boom! Compliments my factory six speaker car audio. Turned up my mid and treble on the factory radio and blended the Alpine sub into my overall sound.

  34. Ccruz –

    Compact and powerful bass on a small package. A nice addition to my factory radio.

  35. Drewskee –

    This sub has a great base to it for it’s size. It is especially great for metal heads if you don’t necessarily want your windows flexing. Its great for its price and size. The only downside, which is not a huge deal, is the cables it comes with are not long enough. You will need to buy a power cable and rca cable.

  36. AlohaLawrence –

    Speaker fits under the seat, but sounds buzzy t volume.

  37. JorgeM –

    Perfect bass option for my truck! The sound is clear, crisp, and hits great for an 8” subwoofer. I’m very pleased with this addition!

  38. JozsefK –

    Installer in 911 (base model) with upgraded Pioneer touch screen HD unit. Makes a world of difference in sound”presence”. Dont expect to be blown away! After long use seems to be some mid distortion crackle but more like interference, not sure

  39. BHMH –

    Just the right amount of bass if you want more low end to fill the vehicle and add depth to the music. This is not going to make you sound like a teenager and rattle your car apart, but it will add that bass you’ve been craving.

  40. Musicman –

    It’s not for heavy bass. But has a clean sound.size is the best part of it.

  41. KevinB –

    It’s awesome… it isn’t going wake the neighbors or the guy next to you but sounds GREAT !!!!!!!
    And on some kind sale… I payed a little over a $100.00 for it on line… don’t figure but I’ll take it… Thanks Best Buy

  42. SmithJ –

    Very well built and designed to fit underneath seat of truck with little space in the rear. Installation was very easy and bass level exceeded my expectations.

  43. AndreM –

    Its cool balance out my music a bit system still needs a bit of work. My girl dosent like the vibration under the passanger seat 🙂 oh! Got it on sale

  44. FernandoM –

    It has a great sound, very clear bass from a small unit, very happy with the purchase.

  45. Michael –

    A lot of sound in a small package. Wanted to add some fullness to my system, and it fit the bill.

  46. Danitos –

    alpine is satisfaction guaranteed. Price and quality!!!

  47. Yeezycrusader –

    Good buy , has clean bass and sound , might buy another ad I feel two will be more then enough

  48. Jcrady –

    I read a lot of reviews before purchasing. I was hesitant to buy just because of what it is. A lot of people said it was a nice addition so I bought it with high hopes. I hooked it up in my Jeep patriot and I honestly could hardly tell any difference from this product and no sub. I returned it and bought a set of subs.

  49. TimothyV –

    Dam! This thing is like a modern miracle in a tiny box. No amp needed, has its own volume control, super sweet, so good I bought 2 more for future vehicles…

  50. TheSeanShow –

    My cellphone has more bass than this product. Maybe in a few years
