    THE SOUND IS AMAZING!!!!
    5 Stars
    THE SOUND IS AMAZING!!!!
    If you've read all of the other 5-Star reviews then mine is going to pretty much be the same. The sound from this Kenwood Sub is unbelievably amazing!! I mounted it on my custom seat brackets that I made for my Scat Procar seats that are going into my 1974 VW Bug. Now, keep in mind, this sub is not made for serious boom, but rather to add some really, rich, deep base to your music. Plus, Kenwood sends you about 50 feet of wiring, so you can install this into any kind of car or truck. I only purchased one, but I am seriously considering purchasing another one. Yes, they sound that good.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great compact unit!
    Reviewed in Canada on July 24, 2023
    This fit under the seat of my 2003 WRX perfectly, All I did was add some foam strips on the bottom (avoiding the hot spot) and the put some velcro on and it's held in place quite nicely.

    No vibrations or distortion and easy sound adjustment, perfect for me as I don't want a loud subwoofer, but my car had a distinct lack of bass response that this fills in perfectly.

    Very happy with it.

    Punchy but not that deep bass. I put a Pioneer TS-WX400DA under the other seat and that one plays much deeper bass. But the two combined complement eachother good. (Car on photo is Peugeot 207 5 door hatchback)
