  • All about that bass
Style: 8 inch
Ds18 never disappoints these subs are amazing for the price and sound phenomenal on my Harley.

  • Best entry level 12"
Style: 12 inch
I normally dont like to be long winded on reviews...but this subwoofer deserves the details. I had never heard of DS18 before looking on amazon. But let me tell you that this sub and the manufacturer has blown me away! I have designed and built audio systems for years , both professionally and for pleasure. So sound quality is very important to me. Being very skeptical about purchasing a subwoofer from a company i had never heard of took alot from me especially being on a tight budget. But i did it and let me tell everyone......i feel like i cheated the manufacturer. This is the cleanest, and loudest entry level subwoofer i have ever heard. Especially in this price range. I paired this single 4ohm sub with the pioneer GM D8701 monoblock amplifier. It is a match made in heaven. Now people....please understand....this is not a competition sub. This sub will not flex your doors. It will not vibrate your mirrors. But it will reproduce bass tones very crisply, deeply, and loudly. I needed a good sub for my single cab Chevy 1500 that wouldnt overpower my aftermarket radio. So i decided on a console design to get the most out of the subwoofer. Before i designed and built my box , i contacted DS18 in miami florida and was immediately connected to a technician named Aaron. He provided me with information not included with the delivered sub to maximize the efficiency of my box design. This turned out to be a huge help. And the customer service there was top notch. After speaking with Aaron i designed my box with a port tune at 38 hz. So far this sub isnt even broken in and i am stunned at the tonal quality and deep rich low bass tones. This subwoofer is very well made and has surpassed any expectation i have of it. This product also has an excellent staff to help answer any question you may have. I was treated with the utmost respect while on the phone with them and after hearing both the sub and their customer service....i am now a hands down fan of their product. As long as you read the specs,use the proper enclosure and pair the right amplifier with this subwoofer....you will not be dissapointed. ... show more

  • The sound is very good. update sound is great
Style: 8 inch
Okay, I installed it this morning. Breaking it in slowly. I installed it in a ported enclosure. Definitely rattled the windows and mirrors but not as much sound as I would like. So I covered the port up. Definitely improved the sound quality. I listen to classic rock. It Does take more power than my previous speaker. I bought one of those $20 Boss speakers. And it would bottom out even at a medium volume. This does not seem to do that. Speaker Grill does not fit because of the giant foam roll. Definitely sticks out a lot more then previous speaker.! I think it was worth $46 +. If anything changes I'll update but I think we're good to go. I can recommend it for just your average stereo. Oh, I'm using MTX Road Thunder 202 amp bridged. Which is 200 Max Amps and 100 RMS. And the gain is at about 40%. Update after a week. Quite impressed with the sound! I've had to turn the gain down on the amplifier because it got louder as it got broken in and loosened up. Resealed this subwoofer box. That also helped a lot. Totally recommend it. Great for an average to above-average sound system.! Update 2 weeks so far. The sound is amazing. I have it in small sealed box. I really can't get over how good it sounds. If i really turn up the bass it will rattle my truck apart i think. ... show more

  • Good item. Wish it didn’t protrude outwards so I could use speaker protector from previous speaker.
Style: 8 inch
I am happy with the subwoofer. Only issue I had was that I couldn’t mount the protective cage over the speaker because the foam around the outer part of the speaker protruded too far. Would like to have same speaker without the protruding part so I could make sure it’s protected from moving debris in my trunk. Sound great though. ... show more

  • Great budget Subs
Style: 8 inch
Bought these as a gift for my son, we installed in a sealed "trunk" style box. (.51 cubic feet per) We have them running through a Pioneer 900w 2 channel amp @4ohms and they sound great. (Great response, crisp) These were a great alternative to the DS18 Elite 8" subs I have. Entry level price point and requires WAY less amp to run them. They really fill in the bottom end, respond to lower frequencies than you would expect. ... show more

  • They don’t last at all

The bass sounded great especially for the price but dint last not even 3 months and I had my gain on my amp a 1/4 of the way turned so save you’re money cause they don’t last long at all

  • These subs aren't quite what's pictured.
Style: 10 inch
The first on; e they sent was damaged in shipping. I suppose it could be fixed, but they were quick to send out a replacement, so big props to them for that. What they DON'T tell you is the fact that the dust cap doesn't really look like how they do in the pics. The "DS18" logo Is embossed but not colored in. It's just the color of the center cap. I'll post pics later. I really liked the red and white logo. I'm really disappointed that the only part with colored in is the little "select" word. I'll let you know how it sounds once installed I guess. 🤷🏼♂️ ... show more

  • Far exceeded my expectations
Style: 12 inch
For around $100 these things are amazing. Did a system for a good friend with 2 12” in a prefab sealed box and I was blown away at how clean the bass is but at how low they can go. Don’t get me wrong it’s nothing like a ported box tuned to 30hz low, but for a sealed box they got lower than similar priced kickers, fosgates, JBL, and other big brand subs I have installed in the same prefab sealed box. These are not cheap knock off no name brand subs, they are far superior to the name brand guys, you can tell just by looking at the surround alone these are better and they back it up with real performance. For $100 sub, they are at the top of the list from my experience. ... show more
