CrazyCricket12 Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 What's your guys opinion on the american bass hd 15 subwoofer. I don't know much about the company but i stopped by a local shop and a guy was talking them up pretty good and wanted to sell me one for $500. Is that a good price? How is the quality? Is it worth the $500 being asked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flarobbie Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 i tell ya bro, ive got 4 of them in my escalade and i love them. i didnt pay that much for them but they are worth that for sure. i throw about 2000-2500 real watts to each of mine with my 2 mojo 4kw's at .5ohm and they love the power. they dont get hot, they dont bottom out, and they hit hard in the box that has a tiny port. i love them more than the lvl5's that i had. they are not a million pounds like those lvl5's either. don't get me wrong, i liked my dc's, but it seemed like i had hella voltage drop with the dc's. i don't have that with the hd's. i know alot of people on this forum talk down on them, but i love mine and wouldnt trade my 4 hd 15's for lvl5's.

TRTC360 Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 it's a solid sub for sure, but for 500 i'd go elsewhere.

FosgateLife Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Okay look... Lab customs (user) had 2 AB HD's in his truck before his HDC4.... For $500.... Thats awful....1 SQ (AQ) HDC4 15 is louder than 2 AB HD 15's. not trying to start a vs thread but $500 for that is a RIP OFF!

Brandon15zzz Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I would say there not worth $500 you should be able to find them for around 390-420 or so. Used they normally sell for about 225-280. Also aq/sq is pretty much the same thing as ab. It's all stuff from china just different name on the dust cap.
