Here are some facts about the Boom Boom 3000 subwoofer that is on our site.
- Is it a super expensive high end speaker? Nope!
- Is it better and sound better than the stock speaker? Totally!
- Did we put some thought into the speaker? 100%, it even comes with a custom spacer since it is an interference style subwoofer.
- Why is it called the Boom Boom 3000? Because we were having a good time at work.
- Should you update the software settings we recommended? YES!
- Is this subwoofer going to change your life? Absolutely not, but your game will sound a bit better than stock without the use of an external sub.
This subwoofer was designed to be paired with the Kenwood backbox speaker kit that we recently started selling or the stock Kenwood backbox speakers that come installed in most of the LE machines.
I would not recommend slapping in an aftermarket sub with a very large advertised wattage as the stock amp in the SPIKE system is not very powerful and will have a tough time driving it. I am unsure what the actual RMS output of the sub channel is, but it is probably somewhere around 50 watts RMS for the subwoofer channel. Whenever I build a system I always try to match the RMS input of the speakers as close as I can to the RMS output of the amp with a little headroom on the speaker side.
We are well aware that this is not a super high end upgrade for the machine, but this subwoofer is a really good match for the amp when we went though our testing and R&D. Hope you guys enjoy it!
