Pioneer TSSW251 Shallow Mount 10 Inch 800 Watts Subwoofer

The TS-SW251 is a 10″ shallow mount IMPP component subwoofer with 800 Watts maximum power. It incorporates an innovative woven cloth reinforced radial urethane surround for improved power handling, reduced distortion, improved durability, and louder, more controlled bass. Unlike traditional surrounds that use a single arch shape design, the Pioneer shallow subwoofer utilizes a patent-pending M-shape surround that provides superior sound linearity.

5 Stars Boom! 10 inches of power
I was sick of the lack luster performance of my stock Radio. For most people, it would be fine. I like a little bass to my music. I looked around and bought a custom box for my new Extended cab truck, and found a low profile speaker, at a damn good price (normally $199 at best buy, but $47 at Amazon). I put a 500 Peak amp to it, and have it barley turned on. The bass is amazing. I used to have 1500 Watt systems in my youth, and this is very near those bass hits. I would suggest to anyone, buy this speaker if you are tight on room, and what something the hits hard a crisp.

5 Stars Another Great Pioneer Product
I bought this Pioneer subwoofer for a really great deal. It is a very good product and I have not had any problems with it. Hits hard and sounds great. I would recommend this product to any of my friends. Pioneer is a great brand. I also have 2 Pioneer door speakers 240w max and they also sound great. My sub is powered by a 760w max amplifier made by Pioneer. (Reviewed by her son).

5 Stars Works in small enclosures
Shallow mount subwoofers are becoming very popular because the technology has gotten to the point that they are actually good, not just thin. Shallow mount means that the box it fits into can be quite thin from front to back. In the case of the Pioneer TSSW251 the internal volume can be very small as well. This means the sub can be mounted in more locations, often out of the way and hidden.

Note the rear view of the Pioneer sub. It is very unusual and clearly a lot of engineering effort has gone into making these things work. It is not just a flattened out conventional design.

I was able to hide it away in a cubby hole and got rid of the big box that used to take up a lot of cargo area, could attract thieves and would probably hit me in the back of the head in a collision.

Pioneer has recommended box volumes. Mine is home-made and is below the optimum size, but it still works very nicely, with a lot more bass than the previous traditional long-throw (deep dish) 8″ sub in a far bigger box. It is designed for a sealed box, not a ported design.

Any decent amp will power it. No need for 1000 watts. I used a 350 watt mono Alpine.

I was very pleased with the price. It actually seems inexpensive for what you get.

1 Star cannot get any help with sending back the bad speaker
I order the speakers for my nephew and 1 of them didnt work. I called the store and he told me to drop an e-mail, so i did. 3 days later and no response. I will have to pay 15% restocking fee plus shipping to send it back if or when they let me know how to send it back.
