P300-10

I was really surprised with just how much bass this thing puts out! It does EXACTLY what I wanted it to do. More than enough base is there when I want it. It makes the music sound like it’s supposed to. You can crank the bass knob up and rattle the trunk with ease if you want to but it also sounds really good at lower levels. It’s punchy when you want it to be and you can’t feel it in your chest when you want to. Great product with plenty of power built in. Next purchase will be upgrading the tweeters so I can hear the highs better over the bass.

UPDATED FOR 2025:After 8 years of steady use and abuse, it appears the power amp section (or power supply) has finally bit the dust. I can't tell you how many thousands of hours (literally) that I've used this sub, with great results! Bad thing is, if I need to replace it - the price has more than doubled from 182.00 in 2015 to 389.00 in 2025. Will update if it's fixable.Woah. Talk about easy set-up! I bought this subwoofer with intention of adding it to my car's factory system, which I did... 3 years after-the-fact. Why the delay? After having issues finding a place in my car's firewall to run the power lead, I shelved the project. I just didn't realize it would be 3 years before I got back at it. Here's the kicker (no pun intended)...This powered sub was shipped directly from Rockford Fosgate—to Amazon—straight to me. Confirmed. When I opened the box, I realized that it was missing nearly all of the accessories it was supposed to have & I was unable to install it (again). But this was 3 years later? No more warranty. SOL? NO! I called Rockford Fosgate & explained the situation to them. Most companies would've just wrote me off & I would've had to order the parts one-by-one (even though it was their mistake in not packing them in the original container). Just how it typically works...The sales reps were awesome, & after a bit of time conversing, THEY were able to round up the missing parts, ship them to me within the same week—free of charge! They made it right when they didn't have to. THAT ALONE is worth a great review.The sub is everything it promises to be! I use it maybe 1/3 of the way up & it's plenty of thump to meet my receiver's best volume levels. It's ported & puts out extreme SPLs. Don't get the more expensive boxes & separate amps before trying out this guy? I got the 300W, 12" version. The built-in crossover is smooth, with a wide "Q," so no phase issues (there's a phase polarity switch that tackles that, if needed). I only docked 1 star because of the "Bass Boost" circuitry. It's supposed to be set at 45 Hz (where I hoped it would be), but seems to be centered higher at almost 60 Hz (aka rumble & "boom" territory, rather than deep sub terrain). Other than that (which is minor), you won't find a better powered sub of any caliber anywhere near this price-range!TIP: Don't drive it "max" right out of the box. Break it in first. As with any coned-speaker, you have a play it for dozens of hours before it gets "broken in." New, it will distort some. KNOW that this is typical with most paper or poly-coned speakers of any type. After this, the sub is smooth, hard-hitting & has very little audible distortion (unless it's extremely pushed). And the exterior is super-durable, runs SUPER cool, no overheating.

My expectations for this sub were exceeded in every category.For the ~$300 I paid, this would have been a good deal if it worked half as well, but it doesn't just work, it absolutely kicks ass when driven, better than anything else in its size and cost range. I'm frankly stunned at how nice looking the cabinet is and how deep and powerful the bass is. The Bass Boost circuit definitely helps drive even more bass so I just leave it wide open and only throttle it using the remote. It sounds deep and rich on everything. The power connector is serious and well thought out. The controls are sensible and plentiful and good quality. The included remote at no additional cost is a very nice bonus considering others charge $40+ for theirs. I had a hard time telling the difference between this model and the Truck version but I am delighted that I chose this one. This replaced my 10-year old Infiniti 200W 10" Basslink (which was incredible for its size). I tried the top of the line Bazooka first, which failed miserably even at $100 more - its nowhere near as nice as the Rockford.On Mounting: The first photo is the final mounting with brackets, and the 2nd photo is from when I was testing it out before mounting it. It rocked both ways but definitely transfers more bass into the chassis when mounted to it.I saw that it included huge strips of velcro for mounting, but I decided to mount mine directly to my wood frame in my Sprinter, using a bunch of metal rack ears I had lying around. It worked out quite well and has great subsonic transfer to the entire van chassis. The Basslink did this well too, and the Rockford Fosgate does it even better, louder, and deeper. I'm in bass bliss!I'm so happy with this purchase - it really feels like a high end piece of gear with a shockingly low price. Thank you Amazon and Well done Rockford Fosgate!
