All that clipping, will destroy an amplifier as well
So it's not a subwoofer. It's more of a full-range loudspeaker. Also, the bass knob may have a bad solder joint on the board. Try re-flowing the solder on the joints and see if that fixes the issue.
The Bluetooth device is reedy to peer. 🍐😂
If that bass knob potentiometer wasn't faulty, it would be a pretty decent value as a stand alone blue tooth speaker for like a garage or workshop.

For the money, I would have to agree. I guess I’m spoiled with my shop sound system. It consists of extra parts from previous car audio systems. The deck is a Dual media player which is connected to a Kicker 4 channel that powers four 6.5” Parts Express woofers along with a pair of tweeters. There is also a D4S JP8 connected to an older shallow 10” Cadence subwoofer in a sealed box. It is all connected to a 300 amp/hr lithium battery which powers my shed(through power inverters) and a small solar setup to keep it all charged.

Solid! Top KEK! Peace be with you.
used to be able to pick these up for £30 here in the uk, not bad at all for something to chuck in your garage or for use as a speaker you aren't overly worried about knocking around in the workshop.
Superb sound. Great ptoduct !!
The frequency response on that subwoofer 😆 that lets me know not to buy stuff on Temu.
I was shocked on how big the woofer magnet was. I was expecting tweeter sized magnet for a 10 watt probably more like 5 watt woofer.
This is just one of those cheap tailgater speakers that were really popular in the early 2000's, it just happens to have the ability to wire into your car.
Found a place that supplied system components and speakers to groups performing live. They were getting rid of some excess stuff. Picked 3 15" JBL 2226 woofers for $25 each. They "subwoof" pretty good to say the least.
honestly if they soulld this as a full range kit for behind the seat of a truck and remove the bs amp and added thermal for speaker wires to hook up a radio to it then it could be a decent setup for some one looking to add a bit more bass and mid/high range to there car
The bluetoof decive is connecteed uh successfooley🗣
I think the amp can be bought by itself for cheap and you can make your own speaker box for bluetooth stuffs
The blootooth device is weady to peer😂😂
Looks like a Kia logo that Lexus sued Kia over and made them change it few years ago
Would have been nice to see if you hooked up the sub to a diffrent amp and see what the sub can do.

Exactly!
Thanks man. I could see how that could fool someone.
I wonder if it would sound better/do more power hooked up directly to an adequate 12v source. I know for sure you'd have less hum that way. But regardless your 120v input is likely powering a 10 watt power supply so that's about the max you'd expect. I am willing to bet if you got that amp sniffing 14.4 volts with enough reserve you could probably get that joker up to 20w. Or more with a good 24v psu
The hum is most likely due to garbage input and output filtering for the A/C power transformer. Be careful about opening this unit as it may have charged capacitors even after you unplug it. JMHO.
just check the conductor ring on the potentiometer and also check the solder joint on it too...
Got to admit, very good looking for Chi-Fi

That hum is a 60hz hum from line voltage. Either poor grounding or poor power filtering. The one small perk for a car application for it is that youll not get the 60hz him there. Lol. Though a while from the altenator frequency wouodnt surprise me if you got a noisy alternator.

Just reflow the solder on the potentiometer and you're good. I'm sure the solder joint is just loose and its common when people move that knob up and down. You're probably caused the solder problem by moving it too much. The solder they use now is lead free RHOS and that crap is horrible. It tends to fracture so adding some leaded solder to that joint would make it a lot more reliable.
That plate amp strugglin a bit. Makes me wonder if the whole "full range" speaker box thing is coming back? Gotta be honest, I kinda miss those in a way...

Just needs the piezo’s!
well at least you can use the box for a mid and tweeter for testing sq
For what it is id feel like they’d have a better time selling the POs if they marketed a Bluetooth party speaker and possibly add in a internal battery it wouldn’t be hard to do since they already have a midrange driver with a tweeter, I have a pair of altec lansing Bluetooth pa speakers that can be stereo paired and I love them so much they’re perfect for parties on budget imo I even stopped at the music store where I buy my guitar gear for some pa speaker stands from proline but temu calling this a subwoofer is laughable it’s a full range junk Bluetooth speaker that needs constant power if I was going to run that id be better off running a home made full range speaker cabinet that can give everything from lows from a 8inch or 10 inch driver with a 4-5 inch mid bass and a high efficiency horn tweeter that would cover the treble that neither the 10 inch or 4-5 can cover, imo this is a waste of money 10x over and like I said I run 2 altec lansing Bluetooth rechargeable pa speakers which sound decent for their price and even though they’re bigger than this temu cash grab while they’re not overly light their still light enough for me to lug around by my self even when I first got them and I was still recovering from The aftermath of battling cancer I was able to lift them over my head to put on the stands.

So what kind is it? It's made by Keurl. Hence the "K" meant to look like Kicker.
I've looked at Temu's website, but haven't bought anything so far. The name alone just doesn't seem right. Like a name used for a child's toy brand. So thanks for checking them out and the video! (they do have some good prices on LED lights for your car and truck. But I'm willing to pay more for better sound quality and performance. I always by Kenwood head units thinking they are some of the best (sounding/performing) in the business.)

Was that hum present with both AC Power and 12V Power? If the hum was only there with 120V AC Power, then I would suspect insufficient power supply filtering.

Aesthetically, it doesn't look that bad. I hope you test out the te/mu amps, the brand names are lolsy. They recently added some high cost amps too, maybe they're closer to legit
The 60Hz hum is a bad ground. Or in this case, no ground at all, and probably something poorly looped on the crappy amp. If you drilled/tapped a screw into that amp panel and crimp a bullet plug on a cable, run that to the ground in the wall, it may get rid of it. Or it may just suck.
