## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone used this sub with electronic music, rap, or any truly deep bass? How is it on the low end?**
A: I just recently installed 2 of these subs in my tacoma shallow enclosed box. I listen to all types of music but rap I listen to more and tbh these bump the bass hits hard. I’m running a highphonics Zeus 1300 and it sounds good with that type of music

**Q: Are they shallows cuz I’m thinking about buying these?**
A: Depends what you consider shallow.   You should look at the specs and see if it fits your needs.

**Q: Does this sub come with a grill cover?**
A: It does …. Mine didn’t fit too big

**Q: Will this work for home audio application for floor speakers surround sound systems?**
A: thats what we use ours for

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Johnnie
*by J***E on April 11, 2024*

I dislike it because it doesn’t fit my needs, i never hooked it up, so I can only give 4 stars because I never heard how it sounds, but I like the quality of the built. I didn’t see any need to hook it up if I was going to use it, so it’s unused and still new.
