Rockford Fosgate Punch P500-12P 500-Watt 12" All in One Powered Subwoofer System with Built-in Amplifier

The first unit I received had a fluttering noise coming from the sub. The seller called me the next day after being told. He was a great guy and took care of me. I ordered another from the same seller and this one is fine. No it’s not a beat the block down sub but sq is good

This sub packs a punch. It adds great depth and bass for your casual listening. And don’t worry about bothering the neighbors, you can turn the subs volume down with the bass knob, but the bass is also contained within the vehicle. The car will shake and rattle but there’s other ways to fix that. Over all I LOVE this sub. Great for the price as well

This sounds great in my son's jeep. He wasn't even excited about it for Christmas until he heard it now all his friends want one. Plenty of boom just like my old system but all in one bundle!!!!!

This is worthy of the punch name. Takes me back to my old bronco with a ridiculous bandpass wasting gas all the summers of my youth. Easy install in the civic hatch fits like a glove. 8 GA is plenty for this, but I'm having trouble believing it. I've watched for my lights to dim but no issues. My rear view mirror is loosened and pointing down in less than a week. I have sound deadening everywhere and a fancy line out converter, which definitely help with modern signal problems. If you get a good signal to this box you won't be disappointed. Like other reviewers, I have my gain set at 0, xover at 55 hz, and never more than 50% bass boost. Class d really makes a difference over my old AB stuff, civic has tiny battery and alternator but can run this and more. I installed everything myself in an afternoon and have had no issues. I hooked it up the old school way, remote wire off the accessory fuse. I use remote wire for everything. Cant speak to any of the auto turn on features. My wife has come to get me late out of the garage three times this week. I just can't stop listening. So happy we still have Rockford. Fanatic for life. Now on to components and an ear destroying amp.

This is a good all-in-one (except for a wiring kit) solution. Came well packaged with no damage. I had mine installed by a pro to keep things as clean as possible. They tapped into the stock sub line which kept things ultra simple and fast. I'll say it hits 3x harder than the stock 8" sub in my '22 Sonata, which includes the Bose premium sound. The sound from the stock Bose system is actually pretty good, but the 8" sub just can't keep up if you don't like super basic levels of bass.This is a drastic difference, but you're not going to be rattling your car apart or annoying your neighbors. It's actually tuned well to keep most of the sound amplified in the car. Playing some rap in the car, I was sure you'd be hearing it loud outside, but outside it's just barely audible. This is a good fit for people who want some punchy kick in their car without sounding like dual 12 neighborhood bangers of your teenage years. The ported enclosure can't quite keep up with accuracy in really fast metal songs, but I wasn't expecting that.I'll note that after the first time of driving this sub, the trunk smelled pretty gross. Not sure if I was driving it too hard or not, but the levels weren't unreasonable. Thinking it's just the amp and glue heating up which I'm hoping goes away with time. All this to say, run it at lower/medium levels for a few days before cranking it up to allow proper break in. Hopefully there's no damage but I hear good thing about RF's warranty claims if it comes to it - and it'll be a super simple swap now that everything is run.. in the worst case.

I installed this myself in my 2018 Camry XSE. I’m not an expert by any means but if you have any car audio knowledge, it’s a fairly easy install. I purchased a Rockford Fosgate 8 gauge amp kit (way better quality than the Boss garbage I had in my 07 Camry SE) and the Toyota Camry Add A Subwoofer Harness from Taco Tunes so I didn’t have to splice into any wires from the factory radio. Hardest part of the install was finding a ground to use. I ended up using one of the bolts that held the back seat to the actual car.You also don’t need a line out converter to connect it to the factory radio because the amp accepts high level input, and it doesn’t need a remote wire because it can automatically turn on when it detects audio from the RCAs. I also love the quick disconnects for if I need to take the enclosure out for more trunk space.I’m not an audiophile at all but I wanted to add some more bass to the stock sound system. I listen primarily to hip hop/rap and for one 12” it hits pretty hard. With the bass knob turned halfway up, it vibrates the entire car and from the outside you can hear the trunk rattling. Coming from two 12”s in my previous Camry which was a little too much for me, I think this is the perfect amount of bass added.

This sub is noice!! Sounds clear and has plenty of power to shake your car a bit!

I have it under the seat of my 2012 f150 crewcab. Powered by a kenwood head unit and 6x8 4 way pioneer speakers. This sub sounds great and hits hard at low, mid, and high volume. But if you're looking for something to flex the body panels of your car and be heard loud outside the vehicle this ain't it. It dosen't have enough power and woofer excursion to produce competition quality sound and volume. And that's not what it's expected to do. For a all in one quality answer to great powerful bass it's definitely a great buy. However I'm looking for somthing louder and deeper bass so I'll be upgrading to a set of 8" Sundown subs in a larger ported box powered by a 1200 watt Skar amp
