Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)To the person who said this sub is junk should be putting most of the blame on the box. I know Rockford recommends a tiny box for their sealed enclosures, which is ONLY good if you care about pure SPL. A sealed box around 1.8-2.5 cu.ft. would be much more suitable for producing less SPL but a much smoother frequency response. This means that you can hit those very low notes much better. Add 3/4 lb/cu.ft. of polyfill (3lbs for $10 at wally world) and you will get an even better response from your new Rockford sub!
A ported enclosure is also a very viable option for a 12" sub. Tuning the box lower than Rockford's spec will, again, lower the SPL, but it will increase the driver's ability to hit lower notes.
Overall, I feel Rockford P1's are a good value with solid performance, especially when had for under fifty dinero.

Aluminum V/C Former Rockford Fosgate subwoofers use anodized aluminum voice coil formers that provide excellent heat dissipation. Unlike traditional plastic substitutions, aluminum acts like a heat-sink to quickly dissipate thermal build-up on the voice coil. This keeps subwoofers cool during high SPL conditions.
CEA-2031 Power handling on Rockford Fosgate speakers conform to CEA-2031 industry standards. This means your speaker has the capacity to handle power under continuous damand, not instantaneous power handling, that over time, can damage voice coils.
Reversible Mounting Rockford Fosgate subwoofers can be mounted in either direction. A removable trim ring can be installed on the back or front side of the subwoofer frame. This gives the subwoofer a finished look regardless of mounting configuration.
Stitched Tinsel Leads Multipoint "periodic" stitched lead wire technique reduces the mass of each tinsel lead and spreads stress and strain over a greater area, significantly improving the reliability and performance of the subwoofer.
These stitched tinsel leads withstand extreme duty cycles, fatigue and high current that is critical to robust design.
