I work at a car audio store. My wife wanted a small, good sounding subwoofer in her Honda pilot. She saw this and had to have it! We go to the lake a lot and work in our yard often. This thing gets soooo much use! It sounds great in the car (I am a bass head and i love it) and my wife isn't over whelmed (she hates my subs in my car). We will probably buy another one for our other car. I highly recomend this dual function subwoofer/blue tooth speaker.

[@downintheparkfishing]

ive waited 3 years for this to finally come out.

[@eliazarperez3585]

I had completely forgotten about it lol

[@MstrB0ss]

Did you get it yet? Thoughts?

[@AarmOZ84]

Just installed this speaker in my new 2023 Ford Bronco. You are right. You won't believe it. It literally sounded 50x louder and better than I thought it would. It blew my mind!!!!

[@verynick]

Where did you place it? All the way in the back facing the rear? Want to put in my RAV4 but thinking it may be too small for it lol

[@ericwatkins8531]

I have a 23 bronco and thinking about this setup

[@wickedbob66]

Dude, I'm looking at this thing for my Rav4 as well. I don't want one of those Subs that take up a ton of room. They are really selling me on this. But i wouldn't know exactly where to mount it

[@davidperry4013]

2 10s $89 a pop, a prefab box $50-$80, and a decent class D mono amp $299 costs about the same. You definitely won't have the best sounding lows but, it will still get loud and still significantly improve the low-end extension of most stock systems.

[@smack9x]

@@davidperry4013 but.... that option takes up half the cargo room and isn't easily portable

[@tiffanyribbons]

I think its not exactly worth it NOW, but wait for a little bit, JBL comes out with new stuff in a timely fashion, plus, there will probably be people reselling it if they happen to decide it may not be the best fit for their audio system. :)

Dude this is perfect for my Kia Sorento family car. I was thinking of getting the Rockford fosgate truck box to put in the under storage but if I can use this as bass and my Bluetooth speaker best of both worlds. I got the harman kardon onyx speaker and that rocks with bass too.

[@rayray3643]

That looks awesome.

[@FangOfTruth]

Well I believe you. I was given a defective BlackWeb clock radio with Bluetooth. It has a single 1 1/2” driver with two 1 1/2 x 3” passive radiators. It’s bass is strong and goes down. It is loud overall also. It has separate enclosure inside for the driver and passive radiators.

[@michaelcabral2174]

I love mine, I use it in full range mode (yes it is able to use all speakers of the unit in the vehicle you just have to enable it and there’s less settings you can change) in the trunk of my Chevy Traverse with the third row up and it’s impressive how much it fills up the whole vehicle

[@BassRacerx]

perfect for a compact hatchback/crossover doesnt take a lot of cargo space and also if you were worried about a sub being too much/overpowering and just wanted a good amount of bass for a stock stereo seems like a good fit. amazing how effecient modern manufacturing is able to get big sound with small form factors and low amounts of power. whats the point of a 500W sub if you never push it past level 2 or 3 anyway.

[@DGeeez]

Would you guys recommend having the unit facing towards the front of the car or facing the back of the car ?

[@mrtadashi3899]

Question! Can you still power this speaker 🔊 out of the car with an power supply? Or is it just 8hrs and done. I have an Harman kardon go Bluetooth speaker. When plugged 🔌 in , oh my God its gaining 20% volume and base. Thx for the review! Kind regards

[@osubam]

Hey guys, what made you pick 80hz for the crossover with it being a small sub? just wondering, I've been playing with my coverover setting with my two JL10TW3 subs.

[@CreativeMechanic]

Does it actually hit on the lows? Or does it work more like a cheap 8” that just goes silent

[@larrywilliams23]

My only question is, can you play it as an indoor speaker kind of like the boombox 2 ?

[@Thunder_McKing69]

Could you, in theory, somehow power the amp from outside the car to use the sub at full power? It probably wouldn't be in bluetooth mode accessing the drivers, but still curious

[@shedboyz21]

[@Frankiebonez337]

That is definitely cool. I think its geared for someone who wants a really nice bluetooth speaker and would like some more bass in a car (obviously they want these 2 things lol) but the user wants/needs the bluetooth speaker as a priority. Then the subwoofer added to someones stereo as a little extra bass for there car. To me thats the way this needs to be marketed. But regardless of all that stuff, this is a freakin' cool.

Bought this and had it installed a few days ago in a BMW 328i. Sadly it really doesn't make much of a difference even at max settings for bass and volume. You can barely hear it. Still kind of cool I guess for the portability option, but I already own 2 JBL Subwoofers which are quite similar for taking on hikes or campfires, etc. Wish it was more powerful/larger.

A LOT harder than my single polk audio ported 10. These guys install for a living, they know what monster systems sound like, I doubt they would be impressed like this if it "made no difference".
