Alpine PWE-S8 Restyle 240 Watt Wired Subwoofer (Black)

Build quality is good,sound effect is not upto the mark.

Produce bassi potenti, rotondi e pieni. Nessuna vibrazione anche spingendo un po’. Consigliata l’installazione nel bagagliaio per goderselo appieno. Sotto i sedili (provato) risultava troppo invasivo sia acusticamente che per lo spazio sottratto ai piedi del passeggero posteriore. Tenuto al 50% della potenza è perfetto. Alpine è ancora Alpine!

Suena bien

After installing this subwoofer in my 2013 Sti under the passenger seat, I was actually quite stunned at the clean, tight and powerful bass produced by this unit. It replaced a failed Boss unit so just needed to hookup existing wiring. The 120 watt RMS rating is a true spec not overexagerated like many other units. Very happy that I chose this unit over some of the less expensive alternatives.

Es un excelente subwoofer, la potencia fue justo lo que buscaba, muy buen producto, lo recomiendo.

As a 30 something with a car he'd like to keep for a long time, this was the missing piece to my sound system upgrade. I wanted something that I could live with on a daily basis. I wanted an increase in sound quality without blasting music down my block. I always wanted my system to fit in seamlessly with my stock interior. I also wanted something that was easy enough for me to install with no prior knowledge or experience installing car stereo equipment. If that sounds like you, then this is what you are looking for! I have a 2015 Jetta that had the very basic stereo set up with four speakers. I upgraded my head unit to a touch screen Android Auto unit an wanted to get more out of my music. I started by upgrading the door speakers. I have Alpine components in the front, with tweeters mounted in the upper door. The rears are Alpine coaxials. To power them, I had an Alpine powerpack installed that easily fit behind the head unit. Once I had that setup, I really liked the clear sound and mid-bass, but was missing the low end that the powerpack effectively filtered with a high pass filter in order to keep the sound quality clear on the door speakers. So I knew I needed some low end, but I did not want to install another amp and take up space in my trunk with a box. That's when I started looking for powered subwoofers that could fit under my driver's seat. This Alpine powered sub fit snugly but perfectly under my driver's. The install was also very straightforward. I did have to buy some more materials like an amp kit and some shrink wrap and t-taps to make the wire connections, along with an aux cable. After watching some install videos on youtube, I started my install. It took about half an hour, even with a bump in the install when I couldn't get the accessory power to work. I tapped into the 12v in the back and bam, the unit was powering on. I had to tune the low pass to match up with my system, and tune the gain to avoid overpowering the sound system and distortion. This powered sub will not shake your whole car, and if you've been reading up until now you'll be okay with that because it wasn't what you were looking for. If you are looking for that, you won't get very clear sound trying to get too much bump. If you tune it to complement your sound system, you get powerful, clear bass to fill in the -80 range of sound the door speakers won't play. I like having the remote level control to make minor adjustments based on the type of music playing. That allows this sub to work well with anything from punk to hip hop. Hell, it even sounds good with Mexican Banda music. I bought this through an Alpine approved vendor and paid under two hundred bucks. That made it a great value and, pun intended, bang for my buck.
