How bad is the $70 subwoofer from Walmart? Install | Review

My cheap sound system lacks bass. Can this off the shelf subwoofer and amp provide that?

    I out this same amp and sub in my 350z two and a half years ago and it still sounds great and it thumps pretty hard too. I do have a $300 Pioneer radio that I can tune and mix on the fly but it still sounds great. I also routed the wires the same exact way but on the other side of my car cause of my battery being on that side.

    As a owner of a true 300W RMS Rockford-Fosgate powered subwoofer, this is VERY weak. However, if you aren’t a basshead, and never plan on cranking up the bass too high, this could put an audio system from downright terrible to barely acceptable for balanced listening.

    1 way to get more bass fromhome setup is to buy a headphone jack connector with rca’s on the end then go to tv setting up put bass 100 and treble to 98



  4. Jordan Berisford on May 30, 2022 at 10:20 pm

    It needs a bigger box



  5. Fishermans Wingman on May 30, 2022 at 10:20 pm

    Omw… Please do not wire it to the alternator especially not that thin wire



  6. Chandler Brady on May 30, 2022 at 10:20 pm

    I know this is old but you should’ve strapped it to the roof



  7. MONKIE MAN7717 on May 30, 2022 at 10:25 pm

    "not the kid in the back round" well I sure hope not 😂



  8. Charlie Hirst on May 30, 2022 at 10:25 pm

    Just look how far you’ve come. Compare this to the 4 rotor wiring 🤣



  9. Serjio Blockus on May 30, 2022 at 10:26 pm

    Lowkey thinking about getting this setup on my work truck because it really needs some bass and rn it’s just a budget build



  10. Wisco Gunguy on May 30, 2022 at 10:26 pm

    This was the cringiest audio install video I’ve ever seen bro my teeth hurt



  11. Matthew Sadler on May 30, 2022 at 10:27 pm

    The best place for that sub is in a dumpster



  12. Tony Marquez on May 30, 2022 at 10:29 pm

    I have the same unit and I bought it at Walmart but I had a professional audio shop that did it for me. Since I carry a lot of equipment which I’m also a part-time photographer I just had the technician give me an option to disconnect and connect whenever I want to use a speaker. So all he did was made the wires a little bit longer and gave me some slacks so I could disconnect the connector whenever I want to remove the subwoofer



  13. TyGraaantTv on May 30, 2022 at 10:29 pm

    “you gotta keep your shit strapped” 🤣👌🏽



  14. Din Din on May 30, 2022 at 10:31 pm

    I have a DINDIN bluetooth speaker that I have used for a year and the sound quality is really good, this product deserves a lot of praise.



  15. electronics help care on May 30, 2022 at 10:32 pm

    You guys are booooooooom



  16. prodbylion on May 30, 2022 at 10:32 pm

    it is weak and its not playing the low notes, its playing ihe low frequencies,bc a low note can still have a high frequency



  17. Alie Dee on May 30, 2022 at 10:32 pm

    What was that music with that HEAR THAT BOOM FROM THE AMPliFIERS



  18. TheCornishGinger on May 30, 2022 at 10:33 pm

    This guy went from playing with Walmart subs to building rx7s 😂😂 legend



  19. shayne braasch on May 30, 2022 at 10:34 pm

    Place the sub facing the back glass it will amplify the sound



  20. Spencer Monroe on May 30, 2022 at 10:39 pm

    I have 2 6x9s, a amp, 2 4×4 and a radio, whole set up with boxes was $150 and it thumps, rattles windows



  21. Fraz Gaming on May 30, 2022 at 10:40 pm

    When you care about the audio more than anything:



  22. Dirazi - on May 30, 2022 at 10:42 pm

    bought this as my first sub, blew it in 3 hours..



  23. Matteo Krause on May 30, 2022 at 10:44 pm

    Good video but it was 8 seconds at best I heard it in action, it would have been better if you tested it for a while but this is still good



  24. Know Bull5hit on May 30, 2022 at 10:47 pm

    Wow whole lotta people in here that think their opinions and way of doing things are the only “right” way of doing something, fucking jackasses lmao



  25. Mart on May 30, 2022 at 10:47 pm

    So overall review is that "it works"…



  26. Chris Johnson on May 30, 2022 at 10:48 pm

    Imagine having an outro lmao



  27. Stephen Wheeler on May 30, 2022 at 10:48 pm

    This explains why car audio in Alaska Walmart is locked up is because we love it so much that we steal it.



  28. william markle on May 30, 2022 at 10:48 pm

    Any distance should work, but the closer you are to the battery the safer you will be. By safe, I mean that regardless of if the fuse is blown or even in place, the wire from the battery to the fuse holder will always be live. If cut accidentally, no fuse to blow and protect you, since that fuse is ‘upstream’



  29. reezy on May 30, 2022 at 10:53 pm

    where are you from because some of your words sound like my uncle



  30. Darren Clark on May 30, 2022 at 10:55 pm

    Came up on my recommended. March 2022. Keeps has is hair looking the same 4 years later. 😉



  31. 910Goons on May 30, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    Lmao I tried doing this. I fucked up and now my truck has no ac, door controls, windows, and radio lmaoo. Ig this isn’t my thing



  32. Walle wald on May 30, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    80 bucks is the price for only my cables



  33. Evan Taylor on May 30, 2022 at 11:00 pm

    I did my first sub install and went a bit overkill with the wiring. 6 guage for 200w



  34. Igli Poleshi on May 30, 2022 at 11:00 pm

    I think if u make a better box for it it will bunp a lot more LOL



  35. Stephen Shiels on May 30, 2022 at 11:01 pm

    A good rule of thumb that you forgot to mention is to run your power on one side and speaker wire on the other to reduce unwanted noise.



  36. Joe Trujillo on May 30, 2022 at 11:02 pm

    Those wires have a 270 watt max the sub has a 300 watt amp built in



  37. Andrew van Leeuwen on May 30, 2022 at 11:03 pm

    It’s 80dollars, it’s sopposed to add something… Not like my 3.5K custom made system… People expect to much from nothing. 😂(I was the same yes)



  38. Shane Baker on May 30, 2022 at 11:03 pm

    I need a decent (non Wal Mart) subwoofer and amplifier. I talked to BestBuy and they said I could get something for: $200.00.



  39. Rafael Garcia on May 30, 2022 at 11:04 pm

    Actually pushing this with 2 6×9 and 2 6 1/2 speakers all with a 1200 watt dual amp in my girls car lol not bad but nothing compared to my 3 stack audio pipe 12 inch sub.



  40. singer3188 on May 30, 2022 at 11:04 pm

    Does it pass the Yheti test?



  41. AtomicNation123 on May 30, 2022 at 11:05 pm

    I have 2 that are wired together. They have worked for about 4 years so far.



  42. WISCO BOYZ TV on May 30, 2022 at 11:08 pm

    anyone got a link to buy this? walmart doesnt sell anymore



  43. Aqua Freeks on May 30, 2022 at 11:10 pm

    I literally own that sub



  44. Fedge No on May 30, 2022 at 11:12 pm

    The sub should be placed at the bottom of a dumpster for best results



  45. steven gray on May 30, 2022 at 11:13 pm

    There was so many things done wrong and described wrong in this video that I just can’t.. wtf



  46. Zachery Stinnett on May 30, 2022 at 11:13 pm

  50. Brandon Pausta on May 30, 2022 at 11:17 pm

    I too got scammed on this speaker as well it was sweet to hook a 2500 watt mono amp up to it and watching the woofer fall apart
