Just delivered today but i like cerwin vega from many years ago.....i know this is a great quality item....
Hello,
If you have a pick-up truck like I do, and want a little thump, this is for you! Its plug and play platform make this easy for virtually anyone to install. Honestly, I keep the setting pretty low and that is sufficient enough. I'm not looking to make the mirror vibrate but, I'm sure this thing will do it if you turn up the remote setting. I owned Cerwin Vega subs as a teen and let me tell you, their products are still as good if not better than they use to be. I would highly give this a try if you want some decent low-end bass in a tight space. Thank you.
