Alpine SWE-815 reviews

Rating: 5 out of 5
Advantages: compact, workmanship, sound, wired frequency, phase and volume control, bass reflex or closed box options
Disadvantages: the wires are thin
Comment: I put it in the Opel Astra GTC H. I wanted an increase in low frequencies at low costs and a minimum of space in the trunk. I decided to take a chance (there are no normal reviews on the internet for this model) and took this buffer. The minimum size, ease of installation, the remote control is very simple and convenient, a solid company ... And the main thing is the sound! expected the worst, with a speaker size of 8 inches, the sound is very decent! the bass is thick and rich, the car pumps out completely. For those who need more free space in the trunk and an increase in good sound, I recommend taking it.

Advantages: + high quality workmanship + rich equipment + sound quality (quality and not swotting on the ears) + control panel + famous brand, it's not a shame to open the trunk
Disadvantages: - if you want swotting, then you should look at other companies, for the same money you will get more
Comment: When choosing a sub, the main goal was to achieve a pleasant "velvet" sound, the space in the trunk is also critical. Slotting on 1000w all sorts of mysteries and supras are with friends. Yes, they hammer, but loudly, but the sound is somehow unnatural. For myself, I decided that less powerful but high quality is better. I took it with a built-in amplifier because of its compactness. I was very pleased with the presence in the set of special wires for connecting to the rear speakers (I don’t have a line-out). I’ll explain why I’m so glad .. Usually the circuit for connecting a sub to the speakers looks like this: sub-wires-converter-speakers Native Japanese alpine converter costs 3k. In this model, it is already built-in, that is, we connect directly to the speakers: sub-wire-speakers I think about the remote control and it is so clear that you do not need to run into the trunk with it to make the sub quieter, great) Two words about the sound! Has everyone been to an IMAX movie? Here is about the same quality, it is not swotting but SOUND. It is enough for a car, if you need to rock the street, take a closer look at the older models, this is not enough. Summary: if you want high-quality sound from a well-known brand for not very big money, then this is your choice. If you have never disassembled the interior of your car, then do not regret 3 thousand and give it to the service for installation, you yourself will be tortured with laying wires. P.S. The sub needs to be carefully tuned for the best effect.

Advantages: Dimensions Quality of materials Ability to use both closed and bass reflex Sound Wires for connection Remote control
Disadvantages: More nitpicking than flaws. The wires are thin and short in places. The remote control is wired, but also not scary.
Comment: This is my first sub, so there is nothing to compare with. If only with those that are with friends, but there are different sizes and in some places the price. I put this miracle in SGV. The acoustics are regular and, to be honest, I was not happy with it, although for the regular one, more or less. But after connecting this "baby" she came to life! Happy now as an elephant. The bass of the gut does not shake and does not frighten the grandmothers on the bench, but the salon pumps out perfectly. I was not going to hit anyone with a rattling roof. But I really wanted to add bass to the standard acoustics. What this subic copes with with a bang. To be honest, he even surprised me a little, did not expect such agility from such a small size ... In general, I am very pleased with the purchase. For regular acoustics, that's it! Recommend!

Advantages: 1. External control panel (but on a wire! Meters 3.5). Which is very convenient when you constantly change the genre of music or another driver gets in the way of a sub and does not need to climb into the trunk ...; 2. A speaker with a double winding, therefore quickly, clearly and surprisingly deeply (I thought it would not be so) plays out the bass and, most importantly, a minimum of echo (well, this 8 "is famous for)
Disadvantages: If you compare only with other 8 "subs, then there are no downsides
Comment: I put Altea Freetrack in Seat (Shumka in the cabin made everywhere except for the ceiling and struts), there is a double trunk and I often use all the space as a station wagon, so the task was to put a sub: - not big (so it took up less space) - not heavy (so as not to break shelf and could be rearranged to another corner of the trunk or even removed without tension) - playing out a clearly and pleasantly tangible bass with a minimum of echo (I don't need the headlights and mirrors to shake or have a massager in the chair ...). - and so that you can easily and quickly remove - built-in amplifier The control panel comes with a bright LED, apparently to make it easier to find in the dark. But if it hurts your eyes, you can just close it up with duct tape neatly. Of course, it was possible to make a wireless remote control, and by the way, Alpine makes such subs with a remote control, but only large or super compact ones, which have a different price policy and play also differently Where you put it, it sits there firmly (stands on a rubber mat!) Favorite genres music: Chill & Dub. I think that it plays well, the main thing is to select the desired filter parameter through the remote control so that it does not buzz on some tracks (I usually set it in the range of 70-100 Hz, but this is a matter of taste and track quality). If anyone needs a sub to hum like a steam locomotive and hammer on hardcore so that the windows of a neighboring car crack, then don't consider 8 "subwoofers with built-in amplifiers. Look above 12" with a separate amplifier with at least 300W

Advantages: ++ Compactness + sounding + FI or + ЗЯ is very convenient, but I hammered the plug deeper))) + Remote control + simple installation
Disadvantages: -Familiar think it's expensive and small before you turn it on and demonstrate -LED is really bright, an order of magnitude lower brightness would be done
Comment: Installed in Accord 7, I thought at first under the seat or on the rear shelf of the compact, but the choice fell on this one. Heaven and earth, pleasant bass from a closed box. If you want more buzz, pull out the plug and screw it on the remote control, but this is not the same sub, I think this is a good alternative to the standard one with improved characteristics. It doesn't take up much space, but it does. When I saw him in real life, I was surprised at first by its size). The connection is simple !!! either remove the signal from the speakers, or from the head via RCA. Power is supplied through a thin wire with a cross section of about 1.5 mm (and not a 4 Ga sausage), the signal was taken from the antenna amplifier, which is located at the rear window.

Advantages: Compact, good sound. Made with high quality.
Disadvantages: Price. A strange terminal on the positive wire, a short positive wire.
Comment: An ideal sub for a hatchback / station wagon (in a sedan, it will probably be hard to hear). For my trunk in scanty 280 liters (Rio 2010, hatch) - this is probably the only suitable option - so that there is a sub and trunk. Sub made very high quality. The wires, of course, are thin, but based on a 10 amp fuse, there are enough of them. In any case, the power was pulled from the battery. Another oddity is the bullet terminal on the positive wire. It is not clear what it is used for. such terminals are not common with us. I found an analogue on Ali, but in fact the Chinese were smaller. I think those who will install it will cut it off or find a suitable mating terminal. Well, the main and only significant minus of the sub is the price. If it were not for the accidental purchase of a stock (the average price of a sub is 9-10 sput, and I bought it for 7 sput), I probably would not have overpowered the toad.

Advantages: Small Remote Control Included Wires Connects to standard acoustics without additional equipment Decent sound
Disadvantages: NO
Comment: Take it, you will not regret it. Keep in mind that although this kid is strong, you will not be able to arrange a disco on the street. This is a normal option for enhancing the standard acoustics and increasing the audible range of tracks inside the cabin

Advantages: Small, well made, only pleasant sensations
Disadvantages: there was not enough length of standard wires to the radio tape recorder, I had to increase
