  • Good quality speakers
Size: 12" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
I was skeptical at first and hesitant to buy these subs, but I'm glad I did. Ive had them in now for a couple of weeks and I've had my amp turned down to break them in slowly. Im glad I did. They sound amazing for their slim size and are pretty loud. I have them in a box behind my seat that has .97 cubic feet of air space per speaker. Tonight as I was walking back to my truck from getting a drink in Circle K I could hear their windows vibrating from my subs. Made me smile. ... show more

  • Can't express how thrilled I am with this sub.
Size: 12" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
I had two 12-in kickers in a box in my 2010 Titan. I needed to reclaim some space and I built two separate boxes, one to contain all the amps and DSP. And one small sealed box for the sub. I wired it down to 1 ohm because this is a 2 ohm unit and my monoblock amp handles it just fine. This is a wonderful musical base and it actually sounds better than my two old 12s If you're in the market for something and you need something with a less deep profile would have a hard time recommending anything but this. This is the best bang for the buck you're going to get. ... show more

  • Looking for some bump in your trunk?
Size: 8" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
This is one of the best built subwoofers I've seen. It gives my Sequoia the boom it deserved after the old jbl just died. Luckily it wired up easy offers smooth bass on most actives. It looks great and sounds great.

  • Fits a JKU after trimming the enclosure opening
Size: 8" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (JKU) Rubicon with the stock subwoofer enclosure. This speaker will not fit without trimming the subwoofer enclosure opening about 3/8" all the way around. Depth is fine. However, there isn't enough air space to generate solid bass. It isn't a speaker issue but an enclosure issue. More air space would definitely help this speaker deliver on bass. Good luck finding a protective grill for it, though. I reached out to CT Sounds directly asking for suggestions. They had none. Seems strange but, ok. I haven't found one that will fit yet. I took a photo of the issue. Other grills attach around the sub but there isn't space for that on the Jeep's enclosure. ... show more

  • Great build quality and sound!
Size: 10" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
Great build quality and sound for a shallow mount 10in. I’m sure this thing really has a lot of potential in the right box but I had to use a 0.47cu ft box since I installed this in a Kenworth dump truck with very little room. I listen to it pounding all day 10-12hrs a day powered by a ct sounds 400.1d compact amp with no issues. Will definitely buy agin for future projects. Update: I had this thing bumping 60+hrs a week for over a year and it never missed a beat! I recently upgraded and sold this subwoofer to my buddy and he put it in a larger box and it sounds even better than the small boxes I had it stuck in. I’ve been very impressed with ct sounds and will continue to purchase in the future. I have a 12in ported sundown in my car and this sub doesn’t even come close to that but for everyday use in a truck that had no bass this thing made me for than happy! Highly recommend ... show more

  • Future buyer beware
Size: 12" Style: Dual 2 Ohm
Bought item from this seller and when it was installed the speaker was not working correctly. When returned as a defective item I was only refunded 50% It’s not my fault you sold an item that was defective but yet I’m paying for it. Don’t buy from them!
