had them, they are one of the most cleanest sounding subs i have ever had, dont let the price fool you, they hit nice and hard. sounds smooth, most accuarate 12inch sub ive owned. i just sold them to a freind to due money problems =( and i miss them.. ur better off buying them off a website, i got mines for 99 and get one free from circuit city.!!! AWESOME DUDE u wont be disapointed. GET EM!!!

i had mine in a q logic box with a sony explod 1200w pushin 300rms to both, it was a perfect match. my back window would flex and so would my front window. Even at high volume they are AMAZINGLY accurate and sound great.

BUY NOW!!!

yup, had it too in my other car and loved it, it was a cheap sub but it sounded awesome, really tight bass, not sloppy bass, if they still had them down here, I'd buy some, but now infinty got some new models this year and people say they don't hit as hard.

YOU ARE SO STUPID. Dont Ever say that your front or back window flexed because of having subwoofers. its impossible unless your windows arent installed right. wow could you make some more **** up please. next he's going to tell us that he shattered one of his windows.

if you dont know what your talking about. dont talk at all.
you could have 3 15 inch subs running off 3 2,500 watt rms amps and your windows would not flex. cars have vents in the trunk so air can get in and out of cars.
the only way a cars windows would "flex" is if you sealed the car and somehow forced air in like a baloon.

^^ I think he means they vibrate in the mounting. My windows shake and appear to "flex" as well because they are mounted in rubber surrounds that allows movement so they dont shatter. I've also popped my front windshield off because of vibration; however it is not an OEM windhsield so that is most likely why it popped off. Don't be so quick to judge though unless you know for sure what the person is talking about.

i think hes lookin in the rear view mirror and thinks like the rear window is shaking even tho its the mirror haha. Anyway, yea I used to have 2 infinity 10 inch and then one, they were plenty loud and very clear. Now the 6.5 speaker bass is enough for me, so no sub.

I'm currently running one 12" infinity 1230w in a ported box. The sound is pretty darn good for what I paid for it. $70 cdn is what I paid for mine. I bought it from TAC as well.

What's your user name on TAC??

first of all, the subwoofer is great for the price. 2 of them and you could be heard across the street and farther. and i know people who have shattered the back window of celica's with a W7. its been done. so anyways its a great sub. they also have new ones that are black instead of white and can handle more power.

Man u can have 3 13w7's in a celica and not one window will crack, let alone shatter a rear window. i would pay good money to see a clip of a window shattering from a w7.

wow you people dont know ****. go up and look at my first post again. read it over and over again until you understand it.
subwoofers have very little, if any, affect on car windows and are no where near the point of shattering one.

All this guy wants is opinions on the infinity 1230w sub.

definetely good subs for the price. i had 2 in a hatch, not a civic. powered by a bazooka 800 watt amp. and it actually came close to my current setup, sounded very clean. IF YOU GET THESE SUBS, PUT THEM IN A SEALED BOX. thats what infinitys are made for.

Its only 300 RMS which isnt all that much. Just keep that in mind. But they do sound pretty decent

It's all preference of sounds. Do u want the bass to sound tighter? (sealed) or would u like it to b louder? (ported) i prefer sealed and I have owned both b4

sorry for the fight.
this is the black one. it handles less than the white, but there are different series
this series is cool though. look around this site
