CX122 Chaos Exxtreme Series 12 Inch Car Subwoofer - 1400 Watts Max, Single 4 Ohm Voice Coil, Hook Up to Amp

I just bought a 2004 Corvette (love the body style and flip lights - the last year it had them) and opted for a single sub in the hatch well. I was not looking for a nightclub in my car but something to balance the sound and I was not willing to spend a lot. I selected this sub specifically due to price. I bought the CX122 12' model. After I built a custom 1.2 cu ft sealed enclosure (that was interesting due to all the angles since I wanted it to sit flat in the hatch pointing up at the glass to spread the sound but my CNC made light work of it) and hooked it up I was shocked! This sub for the money sounds amazing. I am pushing about 250 Watts RMS to it and running it crossed at 80HZ and below. The bass is amazing. I may not have been looking for a nightclub in the car but I got it if I want it. Hard hitting, no distortion and crisp. I am not sure how it is this inexpensive but it is. It even has really nice clamp terminals and very good build quality. They are on point with QC as far as I can tell. If you hook this up and it sounds bad I would wager it has to be something you are doing. Make sure you have the recommended enclosure size and use a dampening material such as poly fill. This model wants a sealed enclosure. I have doubt in it handling 1400 watts but in a reasonable system it will add a serious amount of full and crisp punchy bass. I can feel it at both low and high volume. It appears in the car audio world everyone exaggerates the numbers though. Reasonably it would most likely handle 1/3 of 1400 (400 to 500 watts RMS max). Other than the exaggerated wattage (which almost all manufacturers do) it is a great sub. Will it pass the test for a self-proclaimed audiophile? Probably not (but little does), but it will be adequate for 99% of people who are like me in wanting a good sounding system on a budget. And my RTA tests do not disagree with me. It is truly an amazing budget sub. In conclusion this speaker is everything I had hoped and more. I could not be happier. Some more expensive models may sound arguably better (although in those low frequencies most humans are not able to perceive the difference) but for the money this is hands down a great investment. I am adding one to my wife's SUV next!!!

I purchased the 12" 1400 watt version for a dual 12" sealed box that is sized to fit under the workbench in my garage with each sub in the down firing position. Powered by 150 watt class D amp fed from the stereo sub output. I was very pleased with the packaging. It came well secured inside its box and had plenty of protection from shipping woes. It is a budget subwoofer, however, it does perform really well. I do not plan to give it more than 150 to 250 watts for my needs. It was easy to install and I like the look of the sub. It was not something I liked until I saw it in person. I purchased it anyway as I knew that I would not be able to see it where I had planned to put it. It fires down to concrete and site in the corner of the garage. I am using it instead of a traditional home theater style self powered subwoofer. I was able to build a box that fit my needs and enjoy the project while saving money as well. I included some pics to add to the already well reviewed product. Still going through a modest break in period and it sounded great from the start - with about 25 hours of play time on it now it is sounding better all the time. I would not hesitate to buy again. I knocked it one star for the trim ring. Mine was cracked with only very mild torque on the screw. It happened more than once. I was not over driving them in and I was not using a power hammer either. I just like them snug for a sealed box and the trim ring could be a bit more robust. For some fun I removed the stickers from the magnet and dressed up my box with them. Good luck with your projects! john

I bought two of these and hooked it up to the boss amp made to handle two of these at once and it worked perfectly. I had them for a year and a half and they make a lot of bass. I only have my amp set at 75% power because if its at 100% I cannot see through my review mirror and my side mirrors were shaking badly. One sub just blew on me today so that is why I am on here to buy another. If you have not had a system before or very little experienced you should start with these they are cheap and you can have them hit hard or soft for really cheap. If you like what you hear then save money for a year or two then go buy some really nice subs with big thump. Or be like me and just keep buying these because there really isnt anything wrong with these subs!

I bought this sub with very high hopes for great bass with the 1400 watt pyle amp that i bought from amazon at the same time and i was not let down! I have it hooked up in my house with a small 640 watt power acoustic amp which aint that great but it dont drag the sub down on quality. What i like most with this sub is that it has deep hard hitting very good sounding bass no matter where i put it, and it can be heard from a distance! Another thing i like about this sub is that it would be hard to damage because of the hard material it is made of. I do not have any downs on this product from Amazon, im proud of my purchase and i DEFINATELY recomend you to buy this sub if you want a lous system, i plan to buy three more myself, one more for my car when i get it from the shop and two to keep hooked up in my house! Thank you for your time and i hope i helped you with your descision. Follow up; ok, so i have had two of these now for seems like a year lol, they still function like new. i have gotten a bunch of new stuff as like bigger amp wire, a 2 farad cap, custom seald doul sub box, and so on. these things turn heads like crazy let me tell you. they make my trunk look like its coming off the car, my doors litteraly flex, ant it shakes the concrete floor in my house. with the right setup these thimgs are killer. when ppl i kno hear my system they ask where i got the money!! lol an i love it cuz these are so cheap!! i dont see where u could go wrong

Super bueno buen retumba

Bught them and took me a bit to install due to waiting for amp . Then i installed them lasted 2 days on low power . When i tried to get them replaced seller says if you pay shipping they will replace them. Just beware it comes from a third party seller .

Impressive for the price. It works, came delivered without any problems. I had a 1000 watt sub before this one that I popped with a 900 watt amp. That was kinda funny. Got this as a short term replacement. Eventually getting something else. This boy will definitely be staying in my trunk. When I installed it, I hadn't changed my settings from my previous sub. Whoa. I had to back everything off. I had to put my amp on low and it still thumps hard. It gave me that fat nasty bass I had been looking for. I did build a box for it to my own specifications. the design of my box combined with this bad boy equals one really happy guy. I did end up getting some tweeters just so I could get some sound balance. I was skeptical at first, now I'm so glad I bought this sub.

I rated 3 starts because of a few reasons. There are definitely better subs out there and this was a downgrade from my old Kenwood system that got stole. On the bright side, it is enough base to enjoy the music. With my set-up I can listen to music and enjoy it and not have an overwhelming amount of base to an extent that I can only hear base.

They look good, the sound is good, I push them hard and they hold up to the beating. I’m happy with them.

Al principio dudé si comprar este sub o uno de mejor calidad, pero dada las circunstancias en estos días, pensé no invertir mucho en sonido porque existe la posibilidad de que lo roben. Bueno decidí comprar este sub y mi sorpresa fue cuando lo instalé con un amp de 1100w y una sola caja sellada... No podía soportar el ruido su hace este subwoofer....pero lo único que les digo, sólo se escucha dentro del carro, ni crean que les van a escuchar a dos cuadras, al menos que abran la cajuela.

La calidad/precio es excelente, es de 12", suena muy bien con un amplificador de la misma marca. sin problemas a los casi 15 días que la compre.
