Outstanding Speaker

Reviewed by rpjasin on 07/17/2015

I was attracted to this driver because of the shape. Most small bass speakers have huge magnets that can get in the way. Since my project was to build a hidden sealed enclosure that could fit in a stealth manner under my factory speaker location in my 1961 Chrysler 300G, I needed a small bass driver that would fit in a triangular shaped box and this fit the bill. The quality of this piece is superb. Beautiful to look at, fantastic to listen to. This speaker installed in the custom enclosure performs exactly as I hoped it would. Combined with two kick panel hidden speakers and two 4" above it, in the factory 6x9 location, driven by a Soundstream mono sub amp, creates a stealth wall of sound all controlled by an iPod. Bass settings are important as it can be over driven, but when used within its power range, there is more than adequate bass on hand. Just a beautiful piece and well worth the $$.
