i’ve had the p300-12 for exactly 4 years as of yesterday. got it as a gift to myself for saving more money than i’d planned. to this day I still get people asking me what setup I have. the looks in their faces when i say a single 12 inch is hilarious lmao i’ve even been accused of lying before. after running it at its limit for the better part of 4 years, i have to give it to RF. a durable speaker that never gives up and always turns heads. I almost thought I blew it recently after it stopped working at full volume, but it turned out that 2 new fuses were all I needed. replaced them and scared myself when i realized i forgot to turn the punch control back down lol but i haven’t once felt like i wasted my money with the purchase. despite how many times i’ve planned to upgrade my system due to having more money, i could never bring myself to do it, simply because the p300-12 never fails to satisfy me. cannot comment on the quality of the JBL but thats my personal experience for anybody who wants another honest review of the RF

Okay just purchased a 23 civic hatch sport. How will the p-300 sound in it? I recently sold two p3’s . Yes phenomenal subs n box. Preloaded fosgate box 1ohm. I didnt want to rattle my new car apart and have those monsters eat up my hatch.

I had a Punch 45 and a Punch 12. Didn't hit very hard. So I got a Punch 75, and it hit much better. Then my friend shows up with a 15 of sorts and a weak amp. So I went out and got a JBL 15 and installed it in the same box. I got hard hitting bass you couldn't believe. I have a feeling the P300 12 could be a nice quick fix for my daughters new car.

I have always run JBL speakers cus they’re great , Then again so is Fosgate . I added the 10” Fosgate to my 2021 f150 and it is really so awesome it’s hard to believe you’re getting so much bass from just one 10” sub . Super simple install .. as with any of these type speakers I’d suggest tightening all the hardware on the box because they’re not all as tight as they could be .. I’m sure the JBL sounds great too I just went with Fosgate because of the better price I found .. 300.00 shipped best deal at the time

I have two P-300 10's in my 2007 Pontiac G6. My car is a convertible so I didn't want to put speakers in the trunk. I ended up putting them on the floorboard behind the front seats. I wish I had room for the 12's but they were a little too big for what little space I had to work with. But the 10's sound great. I've had then for a little over 3 years now and I haven't regretted buying them at all.

I bought the p300-12 about a year ago. never made upgrades to my audio system before (other than switching to aftermarket head unit). I gotta say this thing still impresses me. I also replaces the speakers with nice, efficient hertz speakers. Ive have multiple people tell me how good it sounds. My only problem is its never enough for me, I always want more haha. I personally feel like the lack of power going to my speakers is bottlenecking my system, so i'm gonna look to amplify them soon. At the same time, I really want to see what that p500-12p can do. My wallet and my heart are not agreeing with each other, though.

Would you say there is a clear difference on deepness of bass? I know you mentioned the jbl is more distorted deeper etc, which I like for dubstep type music, but I’m leaning towards the Rockford because overall I don’t want carpet and it’s alittle smaller.

Yeah I wasn’t trying to compare subs of that same power. One is ported and one isn’t which affects sound. I had the JBL and was wanting more bass so did the test. Not a lot of powered subs have the same power rankings and not a ton of good options in the powered sub segment. Thanks for watching!

Real world would have set gains low pass and bass boost perfect as per instructions common to amp set up. This way each one set to a tee would be real world sound. Just matching settings to 2 different sized watt amps was imo no comparison because I know for a fact each one's set to a tea with sound totally different than just matching

I bought the P300 for my build. That thing flat out thumps. I wasn't looking to rattle mirrors at the light but that's what I ended up with... it is a little pricey but once you power it up you quickly forget about that price. The one thing I absolutely hate about it is that stupid and annoying bass control knob. It works fine but it is the ugliest most cheesy mounting piece of excrement I've ever had to mount in a car audio system. C'mon Rockford.. really? I ended up breaking it open and mounting it without the ridiculous oval odd ball case. But I'm glad I didn't get the P500 as it's simply not that much better than the P300.
