Many motorists agree that the Punch P3 series of amps, speakers, and subs have made Rockford Fosgate one of the top brands in the car audio industry. This 1200 watt peak subwoofer has some of the qualities that made that said series very popular. This is a sub that I can recommend to audiophiles and motorists who want to feel every beat in their music. If you’re one of those people who likes to listen to and experience powerful music, then you should check out this sub. Good build quality This sub has a rigid, anodized aluminium cone that retains its shape through heavy play. It stays light and responsive even when the bass gets hot. Rockford employs a new technique in this sub, increasing its available cone area. This facilitates more air to go around and translates to even bigger bass. 1/6

Rockford Fosgate R500X1D Prime 1-Channel This is a mono amplifier subwoofer that can make a big difference in the quality of your car’s audio system. It’s small but wait until you hear the sound it can produce. It can drive a sub with up to 500 watts RMS. Suffice to say, you will feel your bass rocking if and when you install this model in your car. Good Build Quality Once you open the product package, you will likely notice right away the heavy, aluminium chassis of this subwoofer. While it does add up to some weight to the subwoofer, it also draws heat from the internal components of the model. It thus ensures that the subwoofer would be able to function for a long time. Controls This subwoofer has a wired remote control, allowing you to change the volume level from the front seat. It’s a nice bonus feature that makes customization of the sound a lot easier for users. Installation 2/6

It helps that the terminals are on one side of the amp, so wiring should be easy. Sound Quality This subwoofer should make your sound system a lot better.

Rockford Fosgate P3D4-10 Punch P3 DVC 4-Ohm This 10-inch subwoofer is also part of Rockford Fosgate’s famed Punch P3 series. As you have learned earlier, the said series is very popular among car audio enthusiasts. And this one , expectedly, lives up to the good reputation of that range. Similar to the 12-inch sub, this one has the familiar anodized aluminium cone. It also has an oversized rubber surround that increases cone area and results to bigger bass by pushing more air. This basically is the same as the other PS3D4, only slightly smaller. It’s a good choice for SUVs, mini trucks and even sedans. Power is also lower at 1000 watts compared to the 1200 watts of the 12-inch sub. Sound Quality But this sub won’t disappoint you if you’re looking for clean, accurate bass. According to reviewers on Amazon.com, this sub can provide a chest pounding thump. But it isn’t too loud enough to distract you. This is the kind of sub you might want to install in your car if you have an eclectic taste in music—meaning you appreciate old school rock to hip hop to EDM. Some reviewers on Amazon.com even say that this unit is the loudest 10-inch sub that they have ever come across. With the number of 10 inch subwoofers in the market, that's certainly saying a lot. To get the best sound quality, reviewers suggest putting it in a sealed enclosure. There are some reviewers, though, who say that it also has a tendency to sound like its blow in certain low frequencies. 3/6

It’s the subwoofer I can recommend to people who are into EDM, hip-hop and rock.
