Questions and answers

Is the SA-Series v.3 really 500W or 1,500W?
The RMS rating is 1,500 watts. The 500W in the name does not match the spec sheet, so plan your amplifier around 1,500W RMS.

Both work. A ported box gives more output around tuning; a sealed box is smaller and tighter. Pick based on space and the bass you want.
What amplifier do I need?
Look for an amp that makes close to 1,500W RMS at your final impedance. You will also likely need a bigger alternator or battery to support it.
Is it worth $249.99?
At $249.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it is competitive for a 1,500W RMS sub. Compare against other stores' new listings before buying.
