It is an 8 inch sub in a little enclosure. If you want window rattling sound then look somewhere else. This product will fill, and compliment the low end notes in music with great results. The construction appears to be tough, and the unit has a heft to it that makes you feel confident it will last. I installed this unit under the passenger seat of a convertible to add depth to my music, and I have to admit that expectations where low based on the price point. This unit continues to impress as it is capable of filling in the lower registries with the top down while cruising at highway speeds. I would imagine that the 10 inch model will hold even lower tones, but space was an issue and the 8 inch is all that will fit. The crossover on the radio is set at 125 Hz with a 12 db/octave curve, and the volume on the unit is set at 50%. This works really well because it will distort at high sound levels (because is an inexpensive, 8 inch speaker, in a really small enclosure). When used as intended the dynamic effect of increased Bass is really pleasant and believe me you will notice from within the vehicle.Vollständige Rezension lesen

I have a big van. My family likes to sit in the 3rd row because of the comfort of the plush folding bed and the viewing of the DVD monitor. When it came time for me to upgrade my sound, I didn't want to put a subwoofer in the rear because I don't want to disturb them with the bass. So I needed something compact and no more than about 12" wide so that I could mount it beneath my front seat. After looking at similar types of amplified subwoofers, I went with the Rockville 8". The price is ridiculously affordable, it looks nice and it came with an amplifier wiring kit. When I received it, I was pleased by the compact size of it, it's very shallow. The YouTube video said it was "lightweight" but that's a bit deceiving...it is light, but it does have a solid feel to it. The wiring kit was easy to use because it was the flexible type of wiring which made routing a breeze. The sound of the bass is deep and was more than enough power than I need for the van. Now I can listen to music in the front with bass without much disturbance to the backseat passengers who are watching their movies. Great product, great value, great performance so far!Vollständige Rezension lesen

There are no mounting instructions whatsoever. Apparently the manufacturer thinks you can figure it out for yourself. The wire kit sold with the speaker is barely adequate. The long line to the battery made it to the fore section of the trunk of my full size sedan with about one foot to spare. Had I not been able to put the woofer box up close to the seat back, a splice would have been necessary which is ill advised and dangerous. The character of the sound is OK but non-linear. This may be due to resonances and complexities of seat mounting and trunk sonic characteristics. None of that is under Rockville control. The unit does seem to turn itself on and off based on the presence of a signal on the speaker line to which it is connected. Whether it will drain my battery even in dormant mode remains to be seen. There is zero chance of fitting this device under any power seat your car might have. The motors are in the way. Vollständige Rezension lesen

It has been a month.... Was easy to install and gives more bass than my 37 yr old ears want to hear at this stage in life. I listen to all music rap, hip hop, country, rock, classic rock, jazz....ugh all. The sub is under the rear seat of my 98 wrangler, it did not fit under the fronts. It has added depth and much needed volume on those sunny days when the top is off the jeep. For the price i, could not be happier and think you would be a fool to purchase bigger named and twice as expensive similar products. It hits hard and surprisingly deep for it's size. I have had an 18" sub in a buick regal, (back when 2 pac was still releasing records) this is a gentlemans sub.....good impact without telling everyone around to look at you or rob you!!!!

I purchased two of these for Christmas, one for me (50) and one for my son (21), and could not be happier. My son drives a 2005 F150 and this sub installed easily under the backseat. He listens to a lot of rap and dub-step with a little rock mixed in. With the easy of tuning this sub, he was able to dial in the sound he liked. Of course, with his age, he prefers a little higher volume, and I can hear him when he comes home even though he parks out on the street. It is the bass that I can hear. Not crazy loud, but still impressive. For me, I am more of a 80's rock kind of guy. I like loud when I want it, but prefer clear over distorted volume. I also drive a 2003 F150. Again, this sub hit the "sweet spot". With the tuning offered with this sub, I was able to set the level that I like, and turn the bass down on my door speakers. The sound is AMAZING. I feel like I am in a movie theatre. The bass is pronounced enough to feel through the seats at moderate volume, and now my door speakers are clearer not trying to handle all of the bass. When I crank it up, the rearview mirror, shakes with the bass and I can REALLY feel it. I have never installed a subwoofer before and this one was the right choice for me. They both went in with easy. We used the high level inputs for my son's install and the low level for mine. The install kit that was included with my purchase had everything needed to make the job look and sound professional. Great sub and value and the guys at Audiosavings were great with advice and answers to my questions.Vollständige Rezension lesen
