Sounds really good Thumbs Up

But it's discreet which is what I was after. Factory look with no visable wires

Looks great! Please would you post which model this is and where you bought it.

Is it a KENWOOD KSC-SW11 150 WATT?

Hi Tiger,

The Kenwood website lists the side to side dimension as 280mm and a cubby is only 270mm wide yet your install appears to be the exact width ?

Does the Kenwood sub get wider above the base ?

Yep, I know the dimensions don't add up but in reality it works really well.

When I bought it I thought I'd have a small overhang each side but although it's fractionally wider it doesn't show.

Also it fixes through through the cubby from the inside it sits flat.

Been and double checked and base is beveled in so it sort of narrows a touch.

Anyway like I said I took a risk and it worked better than I expected

It's a Kenwood KSC-SW11 active subwoofer

Was £119.95, which seems reasonable

All the cables are in the box.

It doesn't have RCA cables included though if you going to use a pre out ( I did) but it does include a cable to splice into your speakers.

If that makes sense?

Thanks, I've dropped a line to Just Kenwood asking them if they supply the right cables.
