Rockford Fosgate Punch P1 P1S812 12-Inch 150-Watt Subwoofer - 8 Ohm

Muy buena calidad de audio

I am 34 years old. I have been a private installer for about 18 of those years. I bridge this 8ohm 150watt woofer on a Kenwood 800watt amp. This placed the amp in a 4ohm load. The speaker was able to handle 70 to 80% of the amps bridged power. The woofer was placed into a 1.25 cubic inche sealed inclosure per punch recommendation. The excursion (up and down motion) was impressive. (Punch Recommends Sealed Inclosure For This Speaker)The response to higher frequency bass notes was impressive. There was a DISTINCT woofer distortion (woofer noise) on the low notes that 12" woofers are well known for. Some know this as bottoming out. This speaker requires a high wattage to get desired performance. CONCLUSION: THIS SPEAKER REQUIRES A LARGE AMOUNT OF POWER TO ACHIEVE GOOD PERFORMANCE. POOR FREQUENCY RANGE OF SOUND (WILL NOT CATCH LOW NOTES W/O DISTORTION). STILL WITH ALL CONSIDERED, GREAT SPEAKER FOR THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS. YOUR GOING TO NEED A DESCENT SIZED AMPLIFIER TO PUSH ONE OF THESE. PIONEER,MTX,IF YOUR LOOKING FOR PERFORMANCE VS POWER. BUT IF YOUR LOOKING FOR SOUND QUALITY YOUR GOING TO PAY FOR IT. I WILL BE PAYING THE EXTRA MONEY AND GOING WITH JL 12WO. Rockford Fosgate Punch P1 P1S812 12-Inch 150-Watt Subwoofer - 8 Ohm

Great subs but be careful, amazon says 150rms but Rockford's website says 250rms. I originally had these hooked up to a 2ch amp and they hit hard but it crapped out on me so I had to buy a new one. I based all my research off of the amazon info which was wrong. Seeing how these are 8ohm I currently have them hooked up as 4ohm to my amp which supplies 300watts @ 4 ohm. They hit okay and now I know the reason why they don't hit as hard. Currently under powered by almost 100 watts. I don't know too much about subs, but it seems 8 ohms aren't the ones to buy since amps don't do 8 and your going to have to wire it for 4 ohms anyways. If they were 4ohm I could have wired them for 2 and gotten the 500 watts. Will be buying some 2ohm rockfords for my next purchase.

For the price, this Subwoofer can't be beat. Quality is outstanding and if matched with the proper amp this sub sounds GREAT!!

It was and is excellent, My car is rocking!

Ok here it goes.. this subwoofer is awesome. I have two of them in a sealed box with seperate chambers hooked up to a rockford fosgate p4004bridged at 4 ohms and according to my amps birth sheet they should be getting about 280 rms watts. And they pound so hard my friend heard them in his aparment 30 yards away!!! As for the people that downed this sub all i can say is pay attention to how u set up your system just because these speakers are 300 watts max doesnt mean you should hook them up to an amp that pushes 1000 watts and dont give items a bad review simply because u happened to get the one that snuck past quality check.....trust me these subs are well worth the money.

I put these subs with a 1000w Kenwood AMP within 3 hours of usuage they blow, They dont beat at all more like a rattle. I recommend not to buy these. Good things come cheap sometimes and since they were at a very low price I decided to give them a shot, but now i regret it. I rather put a tank full of Premium gas than having these installed. And Just a side note the lower the ohm the better. 2 and 4 ohm is the way to go

Well what I can I say it's a Rockford sub what more can you say it does it's job I'm running this sub with a 300 watt amp and let me tell you it hits it literally makes my car shake when I really up the volume
