audiofanaticz Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 Only images that show up for the Kove Armageddon u3 is this 15inch this is a really old woofer, tiny motor.1050wrms from what I could find on another forum on diyma dating back to 2009, and found another guy saying he used a u3 15 back in 2003!!! RE Audio MT 15 Hasnt really changed much in the last 5ish years. Trying to understand where they are the same when they dont even look remotely close. Also looked at the new kove armageddon x, xx, and xxx line and noticed that they state the power ratings as 1000wrms, 1500wrms, and 2000wrms. No where near 10,000wrms armageddon x 15, 1000wrms armageddon xx 15: 1500wrms armageddon xxx 15: 2000wrms this is also the most expensive, nicest, highest power woofer in the entire current kove lineup. The only resemblance with the new Kove and a RE MT is that they are both using a basic 12spoke basket that is used throughout many manufactures. So.. Id say this person is straight up lying to your face or dumb. Its maybe a $100 woofer since its used and very very old
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 It's definitely an old school woofer, I remember a shop by me that carried them back when I was 18 so 12 years ago. They were nice for back in the day though and if I remember right they were about $800- $1000 each back then. No way I'd pay that now considering what you could get nowadays for that money. I actually think that store has some of the old ones on their shelves to this day. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
audiofanaticz Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 Yea, pretty much even anything current that is not sold in big box stores in the $400-500 price range would smash all over that Kove woofer.
Aaron Tuck TBA Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Posted February 13, 2015 Well thanks fellas you have help with the error in my research and that this guy is completely full of it. I'd say something to him to some someone from getting ripped off, but he seems pretty enthusiastic about it and would hate to crush his hopes. 2000 Cavalier 4 doorXS D925XS D2400XS D31004 runs of 1/0 Mechman 270 2 DD 9515js

That would mean Scott would have to redesign it for them lol LOL true.. iirc kove was started by an engineer that use to work for Lanzar, then it was sold too the same guys that bought RE audio and US amps up in the mid 2000s, then it was sold to someone in Germany and is completely different.
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 I do remember one guy at that shop had one 15" on a hifonics colossus.
