Who needs a powered subwoofer?

To produce bass, you need a sub, an enclosure, and an amplifier, and it can be little tricky to match them all up. A powered sub eliminates all the hassle, as the manufacturer designs the enclosure to house the sub and amp together. This all-in-one solution is especially useful in smaller vehicles, where there's no room to mount a separate amp, or in any vehicle where you need every bit of cargo space. Powered subs range from small, flat boxes that fit under your seat to larger boxes that go in your trunk.

Our take on the Bazooka BTA850FH

by Dominic Devito

A bass cannon

Bass makes up about 30% of your music, and it gives music its power and impact. A good subwoofer can make an average car audio system sound good, and a good car audio system sound great. Good bass is all about moving air, and a cylindrical tube translates the motion of its woofer into maximum air pressure so you hear and feel more bass. Bazooka designed the Bass Tubes enclosure to act like a bass cannon, firing low frequencies throughout your vehicle.

BTA850FH 8" amplified Bass Tubes package

The BTA850FH Bass Tubes package from Bazooka includes a great-sounding TA850C amplified subwoofer tube and convenient factory radio connection kit. With this handy combo, you can enjoy thumping low end with a minimum amount of hassle.

Bazooka's TA850C 8" amplified Bass Tubes enclosure is an ideal solution for getting the thrill of powerful bass without making any permanent modifications, especially handy if you drive a leased vehicle. It features an efficient 8" woofer, a built-in 50-watt amplifier, and mounting hardware. Place the TA850C in a convenient spot in your vehicle, connect it to your car stereo, and enjoy some punchy bass while you drive.

The included F.A.S.T. combination from Bazooka features everything you need to hook up the TA850C to the factory radio in your vehicle: the F.A.S.T.-9999 universal harness and a 16-foot extension cable. The F.A.S.T.-9999 universal harness uses Posi-Tap connectors and simple, reliable plugs to get the signal from your factory radio to the Bass Tube — no splicing needed. Hook the other end of the universal harness up to the 16-foot long F.A.S.T.-BTAH extension cable, which you've connected to the TA850C in the rear of your vehicle.

Bass Tubes enclosures fit just about anywhere

A compact Bass Tubes enclosure will fit in almost any vehicle, and you can disconnect it in a snap if you need more cargo space. Since the tube's speaker and port are right next to each other, you can get amazing results by "corner loading" your tube — placing it in a corner of your trunk or cargo area so your vehicle's boundaries act as a natural amplifier, boosting bass production.

Features

Overview: The Bazooka Big EZ Bass Amplified Subwoofer Kit (BTA850FH) features Bazooka's patented Bass Tube enclosure design. Its a complete subwoofer solution for your truck, SUV, sedan, or hatchback. The Big EZ Bass Amplified Subwoofer Kit includes an amplified bass tube, a Fast-harness, and an extension harness.

Bass Tube Type Enclosure: The Bazooka subwoofer's patented Bass Tube's bass-reflex enclosure design allows for use of 100% of the woofer's cone area.

8" Woofer w/ 50-Watt Amp: The Bazooka BTA850FH features an extremely efficient 8" woofer, coupled to a 50-watt amplifier for a frequency response of 39Hz to 250Hz.

Corner Loading: The Bazooka Bass Tubes enclosure is optimized for corner loading. The Bass Tube enclosure's port and woofer are on the same plane and in close proximity for maximum corner-loading results. The corner of your car amplifies the concentrated bass output of the Bass Tube enclosure.

F.A.S.T. Harness: F.A.S.T. is an innovative universal harness system that allows you to integrate the Bazooka subwoofer into the vast majority of factory and aftermarket sound systems. The included FAST-9999 universal harness uses the patented Posi-Tap connector from Posi-Products for making fast, secure connections to your OEM/aftermarket headunit's wire harness. The included FAST-BTAH extension harness is routed from the Bazooka Tube location to the radio; one end connects to the FAST-9999 universal harness, and the other end to the amplified bass tube. The extension harness also contains RCA line level inputs (at the radio end) and a ground wire which will need to be grounded to the metal chassis of your vehicle.

Note: The FAST-9999 universal harness features the following wire leads - Red (+12V), Blue/White (Remote turn-on), White (LF+), White/Black (LF-), Gray (RF+), and Gray/Black (RF-).

Signal Inputs: The included FAST-BTAH extension harness has line level (male RCA plugs) and speaker level (Posi-Tap connectors on the FAST-9999 harnes) inputs.

Mounting Straps: The BTA850FH comes with straps to keep the bass tube securely mounted, while still making removal quick and easy if you need more cargo room.

Only 50 Watts?!?!?

Written By BTB, Junction City, Kansas on Sunday, June 16, 2013

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

I bought the BTA850FH based on previous Bazooka experiences. I previously owned two 100W 8" Bazookas and lov ed every wave of sound produced by them. I installed the subwoofer in my 2013 Outlander Sport to fill out the bottom end of my factory stereo. I didn't want anything earth shattering, just enough to do the trick. The BTA850FH did just the trick! It added depth and dimension to my audio listeining experience that wasn't there with the 15W factory paper-coned speakers. If you need something that doesn't cost a lot of money and adds great depth and dimension to your listeining experience, look no further.

Pros:

price, ease of installation, simplicity of use, depth of sound

Cons:

long harness screws

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

I put this sub in my 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic ext-cab work truck for those long trips. I had already installed a HU and some speakers in the front doors, but was missing that "thump" in my music. After installing the sub my music has been filled in. I have had another Bazooka in another truck that was excellent and it delivers again. I was impressed by the ease of installation, and if I change vehicles it is easy to take out and install in another vehicle. This sub will not "wake the dead", but will add the low end of your music. I used the RCA inputs that come with the F.A.S.T. connection to tweak the bass even more through my HU.

Pros:

reasonable price, excellent product, easy installation

Cons:

none

Nice bass sound

Written By Anonymous, Buffalo, NY on Sunday, March 17, 2013

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Nice clear bass sound. you have to play with the gain to get it just right. Aimed into the corner of the trunk and you can feel it throughout the car. Won't blow the windows out but it will annoy the guy next to you

Pros:

Easy to hook up

Cons:

Unit is quite big

Awesome for the price and size!

Written By Jason M, Anaheim, CA on Saturday, March 16, 2013

I was blown away by the output of this unit! Don't let the power or size distract you. It fills the cab of my Chevy 2500 up nicely with good accurate bass. Only draws 7.5 amps too so power is easy to find!

Pros:

Great price and small size!

Cons:

No adjustable crossover. Not a big deal though.

Good product but you made need a pro to install it

Written By Parrish, Monticello , Ky on Saturday, February 09, 2013

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

I am extremely satisfied with the product itself. It does exactly what I wanted it for all at a reasonable price. I'm a bit disappointed in the fact I wasn't able to install it myself and had to shell out an additional $132 to have it installed professionally. I've been ordering products from Crutchfield since 1994 and have always been completely satisfied with both the product and technical assistance until now. I should definitely say that it wasn't because tech support didn't try to help because they certainly did. I needed help with the wiring of this product for my 2010 GMC Acadia and they weren't able to send me wiring diagrams that helped. The ones they sent simply didn't match and they weren't able to talk me through the installation either. I finally realized I was in over my head, gave up and took it to a professional shop. The good news is that after installation, I'm more than satisfied. Ninteen years was an amazing track record with this company before finally being stumped though. Sometimes you get a tough one. I definitely will not hold this one-time glitch against the company and will not hesitate to order from them again.

Pros:

Excellent product for the price, completely satisfied with its performance.

Cons:

Had to have it professionally installed for an extra $132. Tech support tried but was unable to help, wiring diagrams didn't match and they couldn't talk me through the install.

Bazooka BTA850FH

Written By Gary, Dracut on Monday, December 31, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

I bought this for my girlfriends 2003 eclipse with the infinity factory system. Install was a breeze and this fills in the sound seamlessly. It doesn't overpower the factory system at all, but adds plenty of low deep bass to all music

Pros:

If used with a factory system,or an aftermarket deck with no external amps for the misd/highs in a hatchback or truck you'll love it

Cons:

In a sedan or a system with an aftermarket amp go the 100 or 200 watt

Great Sound

Written By Tom C, Orlando Florida on Friday, December 28, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

This was an add-on to a stock stereo. The 8"- 50 watt has more than enough power to fill out the sound. The factory radio connection kit was nice as it uses the same power for the radio so there is no need to run a separate power cable from the battery. The harness also has a set of RCA cables as well as hi level speaker inputs for flexibility.

Pros:

Factory radio connection kit, awesome sound for the price, took about 1 hour to install start to finish

Cons:

Determining the speakers wires on the factory radio

Was this review helpful? Yes | No

Awesome for Nooby Beginners

Written By Kevin, Canada on Friday, November 30, 2012

All you gotta do it google what wires to connect to behind your radio and your good to go. Took no time at all once i knew which wires to connect to what. I have a station wagon so the 8" is just right. If it was in a car i think in might need to be a bit bigger. Today i even managed to get an old guy to give me a dirty look; needless to say it made me very content in my purchase. On a side note, the car's bass tuner works on the tube so you can turn it down when you want and can leave the sub's knob on full. All in all i would definitely buy it again.

Pros:

Insane for the price simple to install awesome for noobs to subs

Cons:

Its a tube so it needs to be screwed down

Good Bass for the price..........

Written By Maulex, San Angelo, TX on Sunday, November 11, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Installed in Chevy Cruze, makes a great combination with Factory stereo, inside vehicle the sound is great and haven't had any rattles issues with license plate. Gave me the additional bass required to hear music clear. Also upgraded rear door speakers with Kenwoods. I really enjoy my sound system now, can put volume up to 40 and there is no distortion.

Pros:

Easy to install and takes minimal space from trunck.

Cons:

OEM radio did not have power antenna wire, so had to obtain ignition signal from power outlet. Installation sheet does mentioned options for connection, so no big deal. But would have reduced installation time if was prepared to have extra wire to complete splice.

Great

Written By Pat, VA on Tuesday, November 06, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Put this is my 2004 accord and thought it wasn't going to do much but I was wrong. I've had 2 JL 12" before and of course those were loud but I'm past that stage where I want everyone to hear my music so I went with these... They fill the cabin of the car with just the perfect amount of bass and doesn't distort at high levels.... People who say it doesn't rattle rear view mirrors aren't just listening to music with much bass to it cause mine does rattle.

Pros:

Very easy installation.

Cons:

Ground wire is too short.
