[What will be louder?]

IMO the box is the most important factor in deciding how loud a sub will be. Based on my own trial and error. I went from one ported box hitting 138db to my fourh box hitting 148.8. All with the same amp/sub combo. Cant emphasis enough, test, test, and more testing. An experienced person who know what their doing will almost always have the louder system versus a beginner.

I'm pretty pumped for them to be available again they are some of the best drivers I have ever used. They play very smooth and dig low even my epic 8s and they sound bottomless if that makes sense. Thilo is a great guy and has some of the best customer service even through all the recent troubles he has been through. Here's some pics of some of my drivers...

Ahhhh sexy! lol

I have a 5400lms 15 in my closet...prices will determine if they stay around this time. im not paying 2k for a metal coned driver that i can slam the former through the cone

Well lets just say that the prices range from $206 to $1600...

An email i got from Julie about a month ago. Recently talked to her and she said they had move the release date to Feb. 8th.

"Hello,

Here is the latest information on our new products as of 12/10/09. We apologize for the delay but want to reassure you that it is well worth the wait.

Originally, we thought they would be ready to ship the first week of December. Due to some unforeseen material issues that date has changed to the end of January.

These are going to be the best speakers we have ever made. You will not be disappointed. We have a new superior assembly method for which we retooled the production line making each driver more precise. In addition, we have new packaging and a new packaging method. Now you will receive your motor separate from the top assembly. We will provide the screws and a wrench with instructions on how to assemble the top assembly to the motor.

There are numerous changes and improvements to each of the drivers, when compared to the current AudioPulse drivers on our website:

The Epic 10" and 12" have a larger shorting ring, a new spider design, and a high temperature stainless steel voice coil former to prevent eddy currents. The Epic is the only driver that will not have a detachable top assembly.

The Revo 12" and 15" are now called the LMS-R 12" and 15", it now have a 3" diameter LMS voice coil with stainless steel former, a shorting ring, a new dual 9.8" spider design, and a new detachable basket.

The Axis 12" and 15" have a longer winding length for even more linear excursion, and the 8-layer flat wound quad coil is wound on a stainless steel former with a very high temperature adhesive, giving it even more power handling. The spider has also been redesigned with quad leads in one spider for the highest durability.

The VMP’s are completely redesigned with a special injection molded thread and holder that are adhered to the new indestructible 1mm thick Aluminum cone, allowing for easy adjustment of the passive radiator mass by simply adding or subtracting steel washers.

The Pro 18" is a brand-new design that uses an enormous radial Neo motor with 3" long magnets, the largest radial Neo motor in production! The cone is a sandwich composite PMI/Rohacell with fiberglass/epoxy. This is probably the best high-efficiency high -excursion Pro Audio driver ever made! In addition, it will most likely find applications in high SPL car audio installations as well.

If you currently own an old Aura Neo speaker that has failed, we now have the perfect replacement assembly for you! We have a top assembly that simply bolts on, with performance surpassed only by our Pro 18".

The LMS Ultra 5400 is our top of the line low frequency driver and has a 4" diameter LMS voice coil, with stainless steel former, shorting ring, new 11" diameter dual spider design, detachable basket, and new assembly method.

Please hang in there. We appreciate your patience!"
