I've had Cerwin Vega's version of this sub since 2019 (model VPAS12-ST) and in my 2018 Rio hatchback it sounded amazing. I traded that car in for a '22 Soul, and the sub isnt quite doing enough for me anymore in the larger vehicle. Just picked up 2 of the Skar EVL6.5 loaded ported enclosures for under the front seats, like you guys mentioned @10:00

Very good review. I appreciate your attention to details and thorough overview of the specifications.

I bet that's a great idea for people who lease a vehicle. Seems pretty decent for what it is. Like you said, it definitely isn't a custom build type wowing. JBL has always done some good stuff to me.

Excellent video! Thank you! Glad you tried it on and off the tire, was curious about just that!

Great video thank you. The mounting on top of the wheel hump was scary. It just has to be flipped and smooth sailing.

Thanks for doing this video. I know the "company" you are referring to, and I have the Cerwin Vega VPAS12st in my '05 Acura RSX Type-S. Sounds phenomenal for what it is. A vendor that I talked to had the JBL BassHubPro and the Cerwin Vega for sale. He said that both sound good, but that he recommended the JBL. Of course it's more expensive than the Cerwin Vega.

Great info, Dean and Fernando! I have been contemplating buying this for my '24 Camry XSE. You guys sold me. 💯 I watch your channel all the time and totally respect and trust your evaluations and thoughts. Thank you. 👊 Per your review, I'm wondering if I can mount the tire on top of the speaker, to hopefully achieve that better bass produced by having the speaker close to the body. Thoughts?

I just bouth new subs....my cars all about weight. This is perfect. Im ginna sell my set up and buy this. I love jbl..im listening to you on a 24$ jbl go2 and i im in the other room...this is the way to go.

I have a '99 Suburban with the spare standing vertical in the back with the carpet cover on it. I'm going to explore if somthing like that would fit in there. Would be pretty sweet for not taking up space.

Great review, love that you metered it.

Thank you for the vid , going to purchase one

Awesome work guys

So the slight difference in dB measured between mounting with/without the spare is likely due to some cancellation effect from the spare acting as a baffle at certain frequencies. Mounting without the spare provides a more uniform cavity and not a doubling cavity. You also load the driver more by placing it closer to the floor directly which can add some efficiency as well.

I just installed a Rockville spare tire sub in a 2016 rav4, OMG, it blew me away, like the guy says, it’s compact and has the amp built in, very impressive. I want to add one to my Lexus RX 350, I have the Mark levinson package, but I like me a little extra bass. 😎👌🏼

This looks like a perfect solution. I need more punch to help the little 6x4s in the classic car but don’t want to ruin the look of the car with a big box. This should hopefully fit inside the oem 14” spare tire in the trunk 😁

Where do I find this. Does it come with Good install instructions? Would like to put it in a mustang convertible since we do not have much space.

Think I'm getting this for my 2016 mini Cooper clubman 😁 I never had a spare tire in there. So should be good. It's a hatchback too🙌🙌 thank you so much for your expert opinion. It won't cause extreme rattling though right? Like in a hooptie? That's not my favorite sound.

Awesome stuff! Lets see that woofer flex 🤨

That might be a good idea for my 02 Mustang GT. The head unit has RCA low level jacks for a subwoofer. So I'll have to run a power wire and a RCA cable.

For my clarity, on average...what does a sealed 12" sub push db wise supplied with similar power?

Which option when trying to save cargo area in small suv? This spare tire sub under the floor or a high quality 8" in small sealed enclosure with 500 watt or so amp?

This is nice...the actual speaker is an 11 incher , per my research. I have an 18 Nissan 370Z Nismo and the Bose system sucks, the base module is there but you wouldn't know it...every now and then I hear a note or 2 of bass. I like a tighter bass note personally...I'm very interested. I still want you guys to do full install on my 17 Civic EX-T , I sent you and email with details , Hertz Legends are involved, I can resend if you missed.

Would this benefit from using an active LOC like a JL Audio LOC-22 and using the low level inputs vs going straight high level inputs?

I’m a little late to the game on this type of sub. I have a Kia k5. Does the bass travel from the trunk through the backseat into the cabin well? Seems like a lot of people are using this in more hatchback style. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks for the video.

Can i hook this up on LR 2017 discovery sport stock unit? Thanks!

Hello guys, do you have any idea if this would fit in a R15 replacement wheel in a 2016 jetta ?

I'm looking to down grade my sounds, however I love deep bass not punchy bass. I'm current running 1 15 sealed skar skr on 1000w kicker amp @2ohms. Would I be happy with something like this, or should I just keep the factory bose spare tire sub.

Very good review thanks .!

I have a 2019 Rav4 with the JBL Premium audio package. It comes with a Subwoofer in the trunk and Amp in the rear right passenger side. My question is would it be a good idea to buy this Bass hub? Would it be complicated to install with the stuff i already have?

so you think is better to get the jbl stadium hub passive with the 600w amp ?

So how did you guys set the gain ? by ears, or multimeter ?

How does it compare to the infinity bass link?

I’m thinking of getting one i was wondering if it doesn’t fit on my spare tire so it wont be raise and keep tire in what if i cut a circle on the cover of the spare how would it sound ?

I want to know if this would be able to fit in a 2015 chevy spark

So this is good for filling in that missing bass into a mild or moderately upgraded system. It's good for balance not for overwhelming bass. Is that a safe takeaway?

Do you guys think it is worth installing this one instead of Audi a3 2016 original Audi sound system sub?( Original sub sounds kind of mid not sub) Thinking now to upgrade to something else .

It is louder without tire, is sound better though without tire? I have that sub installed but no tire and I feel that sound is not soft enough, thinking to get a tire

Can it replace the factory sub in a mk7 golf?

Having seen these donuts around, the market flooded just recently. I have been interested in a review, just because car audio right, and when I saw the vid title I was like "cool". Was surprised! Now, Dean and Fernando, is this SQ???

Guys I enjoy your videos. Can you do a comparison of the "spare tire subs" from jbl, cerwin, rockville, bose, pioneer? You're reaction to the jbl seems highest, but when you are comparing things on the same day your decision may be different. In between time, I might just stop in your shop and chop it up with you.

Hey! Is there any way to test the passive 600W version? I have a 12" p3 to put in my SUV, but I am super interested in the 600W rms passive version. What can you guys do? Or have you all already done the passive version?

could u flip your rim? Would it fit inside the rim?

I have a sundown 12 with a 1000 wat amp could I add this to my setup?

Any chance you've compared the JBL bass donut vs. the Cerwin Vega bass donut? Thanks!

Have you all reviewed any of the other spare tire subs? That JBL is on sale at Walmart for $365 but even at that price it's still the most expensive. The CERWIN Vega 600 watts is $340, 1 inch bigger at 12 inches, and at the same 600 watts. I expect both of these to sound very similar but what about the Rockville 11 inch at 800 watts (200W RMS)? It's only $200 and looks to have a very similar wiring harness and controller.

Good afternoon friend, I write to you for the following. I have a 2021 Toyota RAV4, and I have 2 sets of JBL STADIUM 62CF components installed, plus a KICKER 10" bass, all connected to a KENWOOD Model KAC-M8005 amplifier. I want to install the new JBL BassPro Hub and change the amp to make the components louder. It is recommended to change the Kicker subwoofer for the new JBL BassPro Hub, or whichever is better. And what amplifier would be the right one for that whole system. Thanks

Dean, with the hi inputs would you recommend using something like an audiocontrol lc2i from the car to combat bass roll off from the factory sub?
