500 watt Boss Audio CH12 CHAOS 12" Subwoofers...are they good?

Question

i didnt purchase them yet but i thought they looked nice and their really cheap

Answer 1

Honestly I've never used Boss subs, but I have used their Chaos series amp (CH550). It was rated at 800 watts, but what they don't tell you is that they use the bridged power rating. So in reality it was only 400 Max and a little over 100 rms. The sound from the amp was pretty sub-par. I wouldn't recommend Boss to many people. Their prices are attractive, but the performance of their products are pretty weak when compared to pricier competitors...
