So for the price I'll admit, I was skeptical. I am powering it with a bridged crown XLS 2502, and let me tell you THIS THING SLAMS!! I am in pure disbelief how much bass can come from a single cabinet. I loved it SO MUCH, I actually ordered a second one but I've got no clue why. One cabinet is plenty for anything except very large (500+ bodies) shows. I use this in a metal building in a location that's not exactly ideal, and everything in a 20 foot radius of this sub moves if it's not fastened down. To be clear, I listen to edm, and I need better tops now because they can't keep up with the level of bass this puppy can produce. You can feel the kick in your chest from about 60-70 feet away from just one sub. Hopefully when the second one arrives I can update on the difference that makes! I'm gonna need new tops, and I'll be eyeing QSC a lot more now.
Sound
The sound quality is incredible. After playing with crossover settings, the sound I'm getting for all genres but mostly edm is nothing short of incredible.
Features
I like the addition of a barrier strip for flexibility, if I ever forget a cable or something I can make something work. Great if you're installating these permanently as well.
Ease of Use
It's pretty easy to get it to sound good.
Quality
The grill is nice and thick, the foam behind the grill is a nice touch giving it a classy, somewhat discrete look. There was no noise created by the airflow from the port, and I would imagine it offers some protection from spilled beverages, preventing them from reaching the cones hopefully
Value
I'm in disbelief what I've received for the price. It's absolutely insane just how good it is. The bass is audible hundreds of feet away from the building it's in with just one sub.
Manufacturer Support
I have not needed to reach out to QSC, nor do I expect to need to.
The Wow Factor
While there are other subs out there, I've tried JBL and honestly I like the "sound" of this unit more. For the same price as two of JBL bottom end offerings, you can get one of these which is honestly not even fair how far apart they fall. This sub blows anything jbl away unless you start spending way more than double.
