Review: Pleasantly Surprised! - This little thing packs quite the punch. I was skeptical at first and reluctant to purchase it, but I knew if I bought it and hated it, desertcart would take it back. I have this installed on the package shelf of my 2000 Mazda Miata and it thumps with the top down. Now, you’re not going to win your local bass off at the local Walmart, but it will absolutely fill that tiny bass void you’ve been missing. Install was easy, you can mount it or just let it rattle around the back, under the seat, or near the gas pedal. You can kick it out of the way as it’s compact. 10/10 would recommend for some tiny bass. Again, it’s not thunderous, but it’s not nothing. Tiny bass.
Review: Good for the sale price - Good bass in a small package. Worth the sale price of 129. Install is easy enough. Needed to add a line output converter and RCA cables that it didn't come with.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pioneer TS-WX010A vs Pioneer TS-WX130DA. Both are incredible subwoofers!
*by R***B on June 19, 2026*

I bought the 8" Pioneer TS-WX130DA (now superseded with the newer Pioneer TS-WX140DA?) a few years ago & I thought it was already compact enough, but this Pioneer TS-WX010A is WAY smaller & lighter. I was already impressed with the sound quality of the 8" Pioneer TS-WX130DA, but this tiny TS-WX010A can somehow put out the same amount of bass even with its smaller 6-5/8" woofer. I have the TS-WX010A installed underneath the driver seat in a 2020 Hyundai Elantra. The larger Pioneer TS-WX130DA had just barely fit under the driver seat (I almost considered putting it in the trunk); I had to make a small thin wooden platform to level it, so that it could sit above the AC/heating air ducts. I also had to make sure I didn't lower the seat too far, else risk crushing the TS-WX130DA. This is not an issue with the tiny TS-WX010A because it easily fits ON the floor to the left of the air ducts (not on top), so it causes no possible obstruction with the seat height. One positive about the Pioneer TS-WX130DA is having a separate controller (TS-WX010A hertz/gain can only be adjusted on the amp), plus its larger 8" woofer allows for car trunk installs; although I imagine the TS-WX010A might perform ok in the trunk too. However, I found that once I set desired settings on the Pioneer TS-WX130DA, I never touched the controls again. So, I actually prefer no separate controller for ease of installation & less wiring, which makes for a much cleaner look. I should also mention for the Pioneer TS-WX130DA, if you don't have the controller plugged in, it will not work, which is a weak point because if anything happens to it, the whole TS-WX130DA is rendered useless. I found a few reviews complaining that the TS-WX010A was not much louder than their factory speakers. I would bet this is because those users had a factory sound system & had the setting on speaker level input. I tapped into the Elantra speaker wires too, but their output was so low, I had to put the TS-WX010A gain on maximum. I too would have complained like the other negative reviewers. But, I switched the setting to RCA inputs & then the true sound quality came out. I have the gain set to almost half and crossed over at around 80 db. The bass is very impressive, especially for a speaker of this small size. I think most people will find it unbelievable. One last thing to note. The user manual never mentions anything about speaker sensing to turn on the TS-WX010A. AI search said it was actually a feature if using speaker level inputs, but it didn't work for me. Either the speaker level input was too low, or it truly does not support speaker sensing. My older Pioneer TS-WX130DA did support this; I even had it set to RCA inputs & never had the blue remote wire connected. So, I tapped into one of the fuses in the Elantra that only outputs 12v with the key turned on the first click. I went this route vs the more tedious option of pulling the radio out & seeing if it even has a remote turn-on output. And like the Pioneer TS-WX130DA, the yellow constant 12v on the TS-WX010A also just taps into another fuse in the Elantra that always outputs 12v even with car off. Both amps have less than 5A max current, so it's pretty safe to tap into power from one of the15A fuses over spending all the unnecessary work of running a wire directly to the car battery. Like the TS-WX130DA, the yellow power wire on the TS-WX010A also looks like a thin 18awg, so it clearly does not require that much to power the super-efficient onboard amp.
