How is the hertz hx300

[Irocthestreetz]

I have a chance to buy a hertz hx300 for $200 used, looking around it looks like they're about $600 new. How good are these subs in terms of sound quality and power handing? I want to do a sq build in my camaro and I'm looking to push about 1k to one 12 or 2 8s. The hertz is rated for 600rms would it be able to take a jl audio 1000/1 at 2 ohm (1000wrms)? Thank you

Had the hx300d. Was a great sounding sub. Kinda loose tho. Doesn't like rap and decaf. Loved rock and lighter tight bass. Ran it on jl jx1000/1d at 2 ohms none the less. It can handle the power but make sure it is clean and the box is well built and sealed if you choose sealed. Loved the sub. Wish I wouldn't have traded it off. Just not enough output for me is all

What do you mean by loose? Are there any sq subs on the market that are good for both rap and rock?

It doesn't have a suspension you can stand on. I mean I could bottom it out by pushing on it with one hand. It is still very accurate though. Not saying it was bad for rap but its no long throw high power sub. It may have just been my box also but qit should've been fine

Awesome subs. I ran a pair of 10s off a Audison 5.1k so around 5-600 watts rated. Favorite sub I've had so far. Sub will play whatever you want. Just depends on how good your box is. Can't remember if I ever finished the install 100% but found this pic. Probably in my old build log.
