(as of 16/06/2010 11:53 - info)
  • Subwoofer Size : 10 Inches
  • Designed to fit into small spaces under seat, behind seat or Rear Side
  • 800 Watts
  • Flat Woofer

Less than 3.5-inches deep and requires an extremely small enclosure making it the ideal subwoofer for consumers who want the added benefits of bass in their cars but are not fond of the inconvenience associated with large subwoofer enclosures.

The subwoofer is packed with additional new features including C-type shaped reinforced nodes, M-shaped three-layer fiber woven radial surround, interlaced ultra-long glass fiber reinforced IMMP cone, large magnet circuitry and 2-piece T-pole yoke all of which help produce great audio quality for this extremely shallow speaker. Because of the air suspension technology, the subwoofer requires much less than the standard 1.0 cubic foot of enclosure volume to perform at its optimal level.
BR>The rear of the subwoofer features a stamped metal fin-shape directional basket directing air movement sideways, to eliminate the loading effect when the rear of the subwoofer is installed too close to the wall of a speaker enclosure. Additional features of the subwoofer include increased input power capabilities and spring loaded input terminals.

    first of all, after reading the reviews here online, i had this item in my cart and ready to buy. however, i went to a highly esteemed car audio shop to buy an amp, and mentioned that i was going to run two of these subs off of it. the guy just laughed and brought me into the back. they had one of these set up- it sounded so awful!! they had another holding the door open to the back room. unless you want an 80 dollar doorstop, get something else!!

    Before running this subwoofer, I had a 12″ Pioeer 400w sub in a massive 16x18x18 enclosure. My only reservation about switching to the smaller sub and box was that I’d lose a lot of my bass kick– I was wrong. This little speaker is brilliantly designed! The internal fins push air out to the sides instead of straight down. The result is a full-range of bass in a very small package. People are shocked when I show them the size of the sub that’s been making all the ruckus in my car!

    I’d recommend this to anyone who’s looking to save space in the boot and maintain a great-sounding low end to their system.

    Shallow mount subwoofers are becoming very popular because the technology has gotten to the point that they are actually good, not just thin. Shallow mount means that the box it fits into can be quite thin from front to back. In the case of the Pioneer TSSW251 the internal volume can be very small as well. This means the sub can be mounted in more locations, often out of the way and hidden.

    Note the rear view of the Pioneer sub. It is very unusual and clearly a lot of engineering effort has gone into making these things work. It is not just a flattened out conventional design.

    I was able to hide it away in a cubby hole and got rid of the big box that used to take up a lot of cargo area, could attract thieves and would probably hit me in the back of the head in a collision.

    Pioneer has recommended box volumes. Mine is home-made and is below the optimum size, but it still works very nicely, with a lot more bass than the previous traditional long-throw (deep dish) 8″ sub in a far bigger box. It is designed for a sealed box, not a ported design.

    Any decent amp will power it. No need for 1000 watts. I used a 350 watt mono Alpine.

    I was very pleased with the price. It actually seems inexpensive for what you get.

    I was sick of the lack luster performance of my stock Radio. For most people, it would be fine. I like a little bass to my music. I looked around and bought a custom box for my new Extended cab truck, and found a low profile speaker, at a damn good price (normally $199 at best buy, but $47 at Amazon). I put a 500 Peak amp to it, and have it barley turned on. The bass is amazing. I used to have 1500 Watt systems in my youth, and this is very near those bass hits. I would suggest to anyone, buy this speaker if you are tight on room, and what something the hits hard a crisp.

    I bought this Pioneer subwoofer for a really great deal. It is a very good product and I have not had any problems with it. Hits hard and sounds great. I would recommend this product to any of my friends. Pioneer is a great brand. I also have 2 Pioneer door speakers 240w max and they also sound great. My sub is powered by a 760w max amplifier made by Pioneer. (Reviewed by her son).
