These will produce a slightly cleaner, fuller sound but not hit as hard as the JL Audio or even the Alpine. How would you describe the bass you seek? Do you have a subwoofer system right now? If you do, which amp/sub are you running in it? What changes are you hoping to make to the bass you get from that gear?
@crutchfield i currently dont have a sub, but i do have a Sony Xm-1es amplifier. Im mainly looking to run 2 12-inch sub that has good sound quality and is loud enough around $300-400 per sub.
Ah, seeking a quality sound does suggest you will be better matched with the Sony ES subs. Two of the XS-W124ES subs will pull all the power your amp has to offer so you get the loudest and strongest bass of the ES models.
A pair of those are not quite as good a choice as the Sony XM-1ES is not 1-ohm stable. You could wire two of the 2-ohm subwoofers in series (4-ohms impedance total) but that would only provide 300-watts per speaker and less bass impact and performance. They are identical speakers other than the impedance, so a pair of the 4-ohm XS-W122ES subwoofers is the right move with your XM-1ES amp.
@@crutchfield Still deciding between one or two of them. I may go with just one for now to see how it will sound. What amp would you recommend for a single and what amp for dual?
It will probably be best to go with the XS-W124ES then, because if you add a second later on you have a wider margin for matching the right amp with the right amount of output for either one or two. This amp for example! www.crutchfield.com/I-rYALc384/S-vZDnEc9RSBk/p_113KAC9106/Kenwood-KAC-9106D.html?tp=35834
You can wire two Sony XS-W122ES subwoofers in series to show a 4-ohm total impedance to the XM-1ES mono amplifier. Each Sony XS-W122ES subwoofer would receive 300-watts RMS. The Sony XM-1ES is not 1-ohm stable, so a series wiring configuration on the two subwoofers is required.
It is not possible to join two of the Sony XS-W122ES subwoofers so they create a 2 ohm load. However, two of the Sony XS-W124ES subwoofers can be wired together and create a 2 ohm load for an amp. These models would each get 500 watts RMS from the Sony amp and hit harder than the other models. You can find the XS-W124ES subwoofers here: www.crutchfield.com/I-rYALc227/p_158XSW124E/item.html
Hey, I'm planning on getting a Sony ES sound system for my 2008 Nissan 350z, what do I need to order so I can have it installed all at once, I also plan on installing the 10" screen as well
Hi Brian, sounds like you're planning an awesome upgrade! Do you have the Roadster or Hatchback? Did it come with a factory Bose system or factory nav?
Thanks. We do show you can fit the chassis on the Sony XAV-9500ES. Be sure to check for possible interference with your dash regarding the monitor. The monitor dimensions are 10.635' x 6.695" Are there steering wheel controls for the factory radio you want to keep? Do you want to add a backup camera or SXM tuner?

Welcome back sony
How would these compare to Alpine R2 12 subwoofer or JL 12W3 subwoofer?

@crutchfield will running Sony Xs-W122ES 2 ohm version be okay with the Xm-1es amplifier be okay as well?

What the best, most optimal amplifier that I would use to power the XS-W124ES or if there’re a better option for XS-W122ES
We will be happy to help recommend between those two models and a matching amp as well! How many subwoofers will you have in your system?

Can these subs handle Rockford fosgate 1000 watts.
We can check! What is the model of the Rockford Fosgate amp?
Just got one of this installed with a ported box, 🔥
nice! What car did you install it in?
How are they so far?

@@SADASVN great!
@rix5301 are they loud? Would you say they're better than JL subwoofer?
Can Sony Xm-1es amplifier power two Sony Xs-W122ES

@crutchfield will running it on 2 ohms load be better since the Xm-1es since it is a 1000rms rating at 2ohms? Is that okay to run on the subwoofers?

So how can I get you
Are you hoping to order a specific sub?
It’s true sound quality like jl audio ❤️
I love that plastic cover over the cheap metal frame.
