iKidwell Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Usable throw on these is close to like 1.4" or so isn't it? I think I read somewhere the xmax is like 8.6 or somethin stupid like that. Any proof of these having some good excursion? Edit: and if this sub is comparable to a w3 I think I'll stick to my e12's lol c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesyrup Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Don't get me wrong, I buy only high end for reliability and performance, but for a multi sub setup with 4 or 8 of these im thinking it would be worth every penny because thats all your spending, pennies, plus if you pop one, your only out $60, plus from what I see in the pics, im sure someone could do a recone on one. I wish I could have found a sub that looked like that for $60 12 years ago, at that time you'd spend $250 a piece for a sub built like that. My opinion is just from the looks, but I'd like to hear one or two with the right power to at least give an opinion on them, per price point. Put It this way. In a blind test, you could not tell the difference between this and a JL 12w3v3-4. The ONLY difference I notice is the low end handling, but that's because the JL is in its specific box and is broken in. And I would assume the lack of low end handling is onlt due to the spider being stiff (since, after all, lower hz move more and a stiffer spider = more resistance to flex. Also the cheaper subs seem to need a ton of cubes to get loud. So it might be better in a slightly bigger box. 2-3 maybe? I would love feedback from anyone with different sized boxes. Also the JL plays fine in a prefab 1.0 ported box. I have another 12" performance teknique sub that does lousy in it but is great and louder than the JL in the 1.75 box. Gonna try the rd-12 in the 1.0 tommorrow. 4-8 of these? Kinda extreme. 2 of these need 1k I would say. But if you have the cash, go for it. I'm just concerned about longevity at this point. I know 2 of these will satisfy me. Also gonna try my mrp-m500 which is .5k on 2 ohms. Should tell me exactly how these perform on 500rms. I'm giving it 800 now (or so) Post some video's of your results, if the box is built to the subwoofers specs, and ported to a lower hz it should play low just fine regardless of how stiff the spider is, in a scenario like this, it can really all come down to the box, vent mach and cubic feet, as to how well the sub plays and its power handling capabilities.

TeamHT Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I'll assume someone too cheap to buy good subs, wouldn't spend money for a good amp either. Or the electrical to support 5,000. Or even a good design, lol. Cheap is cheap. You probably use P&S and chrome inserts. Still waiting on your clamps on that big bang Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

TeamHT Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Why is it that truth or pride in my gear means hating? Will results for the scores be more forthcoming than clamp tests with more than rated power out of said cheap amps? Ha ha Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
