What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Rockford Fosgate P1S4-12 Punch P1 SVC 4 Ohm 12-Inch 250 Watts RMS 500 Watts Peak Subwoofer
  • Great sub for the price, installed as soon as I got the box & sounds amazing for for that size.
  • Absolutely everything suits me in it. Weight, size, sound are all perfect.
  • It looks amazing in my door, the size is exactly the same as the last sub, so it is compact and nice looking.
  • The weight of this sub shocked me, it is a heavy object. As well as subwoofer completely stopped working after 4 months.
  • The Fosgate was a little bigger than the one it was replacing so I had to cut the hole bigger.

What customers say about "Audio"
Rockford Fosgate P1S4-12 Punch P1 SVC 4 Ohm 12-Inch 250 Watts RMS 500 Watts Peak Subwoofer
  • The sound has that great warm Punch, tight and fast response with definition, plus great bass extension.
  • I am very happy with this purchase because the bass has an excellent response.
  • Just sending 250-275 watts to one sub, I can literally feel the air moving in the vehicle, my shirt moves a little bit.
  • These woofers don’t need lots of power to sound great, but a top notch amp can really control a woofer for top performance and that is what it’s all about.
  • After 3 days, the low frequencies began to distort, which really upset me.
Rockford Fosgate R1S4-12 12-Inch 150 Watt Subwoofer - 4 Ohm
  • Frequency Range is perfect, and sound guality is amazing.
  • Lots of quality bass, and the frequency range finds all the bass in Low-Pass, unlike others that only get the very low.
  • They sound amazing and the punch knob i have lets me control the bass at any volume i decide to crank it up to.
  • Even though they're loud, the sound quality is very frustrating.
  • It do distortion in high volumes and sound muddy.

What customers say about "Features"
Rockford Fosgate P1S4-12 Punch P1 SVC 4 Ohm 12-Inch 250 Watts RMS 500 Watts Peak Subwoofer
  • It's absolutely insane. I cannot believe that much power is coming from just one of these subs.
  • Deliver clean powerful bass at an affordable price. Excellent brand, excellent quality.
  • Put it in a vented enclosure with very little power and the thing rocks. Great purchase!
  • Great features that improved reliability and performance by reducing fatigue and possible shorting.
  • It was very difficult to mount the correct position of the subwoofer. It took a lot of time.
Rockford Fosgate R1S4-12 12-Inch 150 Watt Subwoofer - 4 Ohm
  • The structure of this sub looks a lot like my old 1991 Punch but this newer version provides lower range and seems to run very well off my old 150w Rockford amp.
  • The subs dont hit super hard, however I feel that the bass is perfectly boosted now with my system in my truck.
  • I recommend these to anyone who wants hard hitting bass and you will still be able to enjoy the actual music as well.
  • Subwoofers use anodized aluminum voice coil formers that provide superior heat dissipation.
  • Good but over power it. You are limited in power. If you exceed 100 watts it will work incorrectly.

What customers say about "Connectivity"
Rockford Fosgate P1S4-12 Punch P1 SVC 4 Ohm 12-Inch 250 Watts RMS 500 Watts Peak Subwoofer
  • Great base! Paired with Alpine MRV-M250 Mono V-Power Digital Amplifier. Sounds great at low volumes and REALLY loud!
  • I have it paired with the RF 150 2 channel amp and it'll surprise you. Nice tight bass and it goes pretty low.
  • Paired with the right box and amp it's great. It connects perfectly and works in my car.
  • The connection looks reliable and durable so you can not worry about it.
  • The sound sometimes disappears. I noticed that the wires in the terminals are poorly fixed.
