This is part of Pioneer's accelerate range which has been around for
some years now. The TS-W 306C is a 12" sub woofer designed to
be fitted to a sub box which is sold separately.

Fitting

The sub woofer comes with a pack of screws and double sided foam
which is secured to the back of the speaker and then mounted onto
the box, so as to give a perfect seal when screwed to the box.
This is then mounted in the boot of your car. The only connection that
you need to make is the speaker wires which is attached to the side of the box. I recommend using a good quality OFC (oxygen free cable)
This cable is then connected to the speaker terminals on your amp.

Performance

This will vary greatly depending which amp you will use to drive this
speaker. As a rule i would suggest you use a good quality amp
rated 200 watts and above. However i am only using a 150 watt amp
to drive this sub and i am very happy with the results. It performs well
with all types of music from pop to rock and is very detailed with male
and female vocals as well. Bass is tight and punchy, and even as you
increase the volume the sound is clean and undistorted. I was quite
surprised with how this handled at high volumes. Overall a great
sounding sub for the price.

Specs

Ohm rating: 4 Ohms
Maximum Power: 1000 Watt
Nominal input power: 400 Watt
Frequency response: 18 - 5000 Hz
Recommended sealed enclosure (Litres): 24 - 49.6

To finish i would suggest buying the best amp that you can afford, something like kicker or audiobahn. These can be bought for around £150. Use good quality speaker and power cables, which can be bought as a kit. Take time to set up your levels on the amp and sub controls on the head unit. Finally the sub woofer can be bought for an amazing £30 from www.f1soundgallery.co.uk, but also check google for this sub along with any other accessories you may need.
