Airborne Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I had XTR 15's in like 1992 or so! Fucking banged as far as I was concerned.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine8SST Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Nope....they sounded like shit. I replaced them with orion XTR DVC's.....the ones with the red writing. I'm no expert, but I personally have never heard an infinate baffle sub sound good.......it's a cool piece of history though....i think they came out somewhere around 91-93.

95legwagon Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 ha the orion works flawlessly...... only tested it on headunit power but it makes sound and has some excursion..... sounded like shit (cuz it was seeing highs and lows) but damn was i surprised to see it move. this goes on the shelf. unless someone wants to buy it from me for something fun.......not to wallsocket it though. i found it in the back of an abandoned early 90's accord that was all riced out..... no amp or h/u just this box in back. came into the yard yesterday and i spotted it not 5 minutes after it being here lmao sometimes i love working at a junkyard -jarrid Quote i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit.
