Perfect Sub for the money

Fantastic sub to add to my existing Polk DB series door speakers. I chose the MM based on its power handling capabilities. I put it into a down firing box I made for the trunk space in my Outback. This sub has great deep tones at those lower bass frequencies. The thumps are accurate and perfect for my system. Great sub for the money.

Bumpity bump bump

This sub just does work. I have it paired to a 4ohm 300w amp, in a ~1 cubic foot sealed box. I mostly use it to fill the audio stage in my truck, and it does it well - and is also quite a bit of fun yamming on it with bass heavy music. There are some real low notes it struggles with, I'm thinking below the 30hz mark. That said, it could be some combination of it being outside the efficient range, my amp setup, and my stock head unit. Being that it is water proof, I have definitely poured water on it while it was cranked, and I was not disappointed lol.

Certainly added some thump to my boat, time will tell how suited to a salt water environment it is, though.

Excellent sound and performance
Crutchfield customer from NEW ALBANY, OH on 5/13/2021
Forget JL or any of the other brands when it comes down to power handling and overall great sub sound without breaking the bank. Had two of these in my cruiser for 3 summers and can't be happier. For a boat in a free air mounting setup like most boats, these are awesome, really low bass and totally fill up the sound stage. These are paired up to a 1000W Polk mono class D amp also purchased 3 years ago. All work flawlessly, highly recommended.
Pros: Value, sound quality, durability in wet marine cockpit.
Cons: Grills hard to get that match my old MM Polk components.

Just that good!
Matt from San Diego, CA on 12/29/2018
This sub performs way better than expected. I can't believe they don't cost hundreds more. I won't mention names but they are better than my Last one that started with a J! For half the money! They are perfect in my sealed enclosure! I just still can't believe they cost this much! I would recommend to anyone looking for a high end sub! Thanks Crutchfield for leading me this way! I will be back!
Pros: Everything! Better than others costing hundreds more. Doesn't matter what kind of music you listen to!
Cons: Zero!
