Kenwood KSC-SW1 Car Subwoofer

Pros: space efficient, inexpensive, flexible configuration, wired remote control

Cons: cannot shatter windows

The Bottom Line: If you are considering enhance the bass of your stereo in a smaller vehicle, the KSC-SW1 is definitely worth a look.

Review: Okay, a subwoofer cannot blast away kidney stones. But I did get your attention, didn't I?

The KSC-SW1 is a self-contained subwoofer with an included amplifier. It is rated at 160W, which is relatively weak for subwoofers. Obviously, it is...

Pros: Good clean bass, small size, flexible connection options.

Cons: Fixed length wire on remote, lower output than larger subs, 120 hz highest crossover frequency

The Bottom Line: Recommended if you don't have the room to mount a full-size sub.

Review: I recently purchased the Kenwood KSC-SW1 to use in my 2003 Honda Odyssey minivan, along with a Pioneer head unit and Alpine amplifier (I've kept the stock speakers for the moment). The stock Honda system has widely come under criticism in Odyssey...

Pros: Small with big sound.

Cons: Should work without the wired remote.

The Bottom Line: Perfect if you can't afford any loss of space.

Review: I puchased this sub to replace the factory sub under the seat of my Subaru Outback Sport. It complements an Alpine head unit and Polk component speakers. It fit perfectly under my seat, but of course, a sub was already there. I used the mounting...

Pros: Small size, big sound

Cons: You won't win any contests

The Bottom Line: Great unit for small spaces and for those who want clean bass sound.

Review: When I bought my 1987 Porsche 911 cabriolet it was a dream come true. When I turned on the stereo in it, it was a nightmare. Despite having a quality aftermarket component speaker system the sound had crystal clear highs and mids, but NO bass...

Pros: Will make any stereo system sound better. Compact and easy to install.

Cons: Not suitable for very high sound levels or trunk installation.

Review: My 25 yr old son had a 500 watts MTX amp driving a 12 inch Solo Baric subwoofer in his Camero so I really appreciate good bass. I managed to install this mini sub right behind the driver seat in my 2000 Corvette so I had zero loss of trunk space...

Pros: Clear sound, fits perfectly in smaller cars

Cons: remote

Review: If you're not looking to deafen those within a 20 mile radius, but still manage to add some oomph to what you're listening to, this sub will most likely do the job. I was impressed by the compact size, it really doesn't take up much room at all.

Pros: Price, quality, clean sound

Cons: easily "stealable"

Review: I put one of these in my Honda del Sol. It was just what I needed to fill in the lows without setting off car alarms as I drive down the street. I've never had a sub before and didn't know what I was missing. Now I won't ever go without one...

Pros: Small, thin, fits under seat

Cons: Not many, only that the wired remote needs an "off" button

Review: If you are looking for a small sub with a kick, this is exactly what you need. I have a convertible car and didn't want any subs in the trunk, this is perfect for you. Obviously it is not going to provide the same bump as a 10" or 12", but it has...

Pros: Small, adds bass, built in amp

Cons: Blown passive radiators, ugly, sound quality is subpar when working right

Review: I had this sub hooked up by a professional. It sounded OK. Nothing to brag about. It definately added more bass. After 3 mohths the passive radiator blew out. Now the sub, sounds like it's farting all the time. I used to have some Kickers subwoofers...

Pros: SAVE SPACE,EASY TO HIDE,CHEAP TO GET IT FOR INTERNET VS LOCAL STORE..

Cons: DEPENDS HOW CRAZY YOU LIKE THE BASS

Review: I HAVE 1 1/2 YEAR WITH THIS SUBWOOFER A HAVE A TOYOTA MATRIX IN THE BEGINING I WAS KIND AFRAID OF GET IT BECAUSE I LIKE THE BASS NEET N CLEAR BUT I SAID OK I'LL TRY IT AND ONCE MY HUSBAND FIX IT ON MY CAR I LOVES THE SOUND MY HUSBAND LOVES TOO.....
