Strength:

Good and powerfull basses, should be more powerfull mounted in a closed or bass reflex box

Hello guies, I own a pair of KFC-W3002 subwoofers that are mounted in "Free Air", and now I want to build a box for them to get more powerfull basses. I've lost the manual and I'd like to get one, preferable downloading a .pdf file to know which are the measures that you reccomend. Thank you.

Strength:

Price

Weakness:

kinda weak

I got 2 of these subs and a bandpass box for free so I thought, well I'm not going to expect too much out of them. I got what I expected. They did alright, but I just blew one of them earlier this morning when I hooked up a more powerful amp. Oh well, gives me a reason to upgrade. They're good if you can get them by you, but they don't sound very good in a trunk.

Strength:

Loud, although i havnt tried turning it up beyond driving volume :) I picked them up quite cheap as it came with a box included with speaker guards etc

Weakness:

The size, you need to sacrafice your boot, if you arent too bothered about the space but maybe you are about the tire, do what i did and bolt the sub through the metal and hold it with wingnuts (if you can) then when u need the tire, unscrew the nuts push the rear seats forward, push the sub forward, reach for the tire :)

I havnt got any comparisons but ive just installed these subs in my rover metro, (fills the whole boot) with a KAC-819 mono subwoofer amplifier, which is 450W (my alternator couldnt take any more amps) And it sounds excellent, nice bass with a clear sound

Strength:

Power handling, can be very loud

Weakness:

Sound Quality, cant hit the super lows like my Infinity Perfect can.

I was short on money so I bought super cheap buy one get one free subs, i was totally impressed, the sq kinda sucked, even in a sealed box, but they are loud!! I had two in a sealed box running off a American Bass VFL-550 amplifier, and I hit 141.1 db in my Dodge Shadow impressive for cheap subs.

Strength:

Awesome bass inside. With the trunk open you can hear it from blocks away.

Weakness:

The foam surrounding the sub. It's not too loud outside of my car with the trunk shut.

I don't know too much about subs but they do sound very good in my 1998 BMW. I have the one 12" sub and a 500 watt x2 channel amp running it. It's in a nice ported enclosure. Not too loud from outside my car, but sounds brilliant inside. You can really feel it in your chest & stomach!

I am looking to purchase 2 JL 10" subs in a box from a friend, so I will compare them soon

Strength:

Heavy cone allows lower frequencies

Weakness:

Foam surround is to weak

Puts out good bass for the price needs to have stronger surround. Blew away my old Realistic''s.

Strength:

Got them for free at the dump.

Weakness:

Everything you can think of. Barely no base. Crappy sound quality. Bad for looks, spl, sound quality.

Don`t even by them, go with mtx. They are not that expensive and them blow the living hell out of the kenwoods.

Strength:

A pair of these subs will shae the ground

Weakness:

Box size

I Have 12"s fitted into my 1989 plymouth sundance so the box isn't that big. I powering them through a kac 848 4 channel amp. Beleive me this set up is awsome they slam with the best of them. I have blown every bulb in the ass end of my car. I love them. I would recomend this paticular sub to anyone. I have a vented box and they hit pretty darn low. So if anyone dares put these subs down then its obvious they don't know a damb thing.
Kenwood has defenately come a long way from there earlier model subs. Go buy a pair I recommend them :)

It produces a brilliant alround bass sound.

Nothing it is great.

I have used this product for over a year and found it produces ear spliting bass and allround good quality bass. It produces brilliant sound no matter what frequency from 50hz to 120hz.
