don't buy marketing any decent set of 12's in the proper box will thump (don't buy a prefab piece of cardboard) I have not been impressed with the kickers sound (don't play low enough for subs to me) for about the same price you could get a set of eclipse that sound great, or the mtx thunder 9500 is a great sub pricey but they never had a blown one come back

they have a transient of about 100 hz ( that's teh point they play teh loudest) wich does kickdrums ok (should be around 80 hz) that's why they work fine for heavy metal but suck for real bass
