Buy Kenwood KSC-SW10 5-Inch x 7-Inch 150-Watt Max Powered Subwoofer

Customer Ratings:

I was looking for a powered sub to fit under the driver's seat of my PT Cruiser convertible. I don't have a lot of extra trunk space or interior space for separate amps and subs, and the bass from my Alpine receiver/ Polk DB speaker setup tended to disappear when the top went down. After some deliberation, I decided to give the Kenwood KSC-SW10 a shot.

Setup was fairly simpleI have some experience in car audio installation, which came in handy. The wiring harness looks intimidating at first, but most of those wires can be clipped off if your receiver has RCA jacks for subwoofer output. This leaves three wires to connect plus the RCA cables. Installation, including removing the driver's seat to ease access and running the power wire through the firewall to the battery, took about an hour.

The bass produced by this unit is fantastic given the size and low RMS power of the amp. I was expecting to have the gain cranked all the way up in order to get decent sound from itI was pleasantly surprised that I generally have it at 50-70% volume, depending on the album. Even with the top down, I get rich bass which makes my whole system sound better! The unit comes with a compact and attractive remote which controls the gain, crossover point and polarity. I used the remote for the first few days I owned the unit until I got the sound just rightnow I control the sub volume via the receiver. I keep the remote in the glovebox just in case.

All in all, I couldn't be more pleased with the KSC-SW10. For an adult who listens to adult music (alt-country, indie rock, classic rock) it provides an excellent combination of performance and subtlety at an unbeatable price.

Well I read the reviews for the previouse model and decided to try this the KSC-SW1. I would rate this in the same category they described. I am 35 and listen to a wide variety of music from Jazz to hard core Heavy Metal. I would say that this thing might dig down and produce 50Hz once at low volume. But, it does produce decent bass for a surprisingly small package. It fit under the seat of my f350 crew cab with no problems and fills that big cab with bass and not equipment. If you want seriouse bass stick with two 12 inch subs and a 500 watt amp (personally I've grown out of that). If you want decent sounding music in a small package then buy this and I would bet you'll be happy.

It will not give you window shaking bass but it sounds great. It fits perfectly under the back seat in my '06 Wrangler.

After reading the other reviews, I was impressed with what two individuals who had Jeep Wranglers had said. Owning a Jeep Wrangler myself, and wanting a little more bass punch to my Sony aftermarket radio, I decided to purchase this unit. It was easy to install and adds a signinfant improvement to the overall sound of my radio. As others have said, it's not going to vibrate the car next to you while at a traffic light, but it sure sounds great inside my Jeep. I haven't had the doors off yet, but I expect significant improvment there as well. My Jeep has the built in subwoofer. The speaker in it had gone bad due to being overdriven by the new radio. There is no comparrison between the stock bass sound and the Kenwood. I highly recommend the Kenwood unit as a cost effective, quality product.
