All they do is eat up cone area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbmonster Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I am thinking about trying 2 15's. is this a decent brand?kinda reminds me of eclipse with the beefy surround http://www.hifisoundconnection.com/Shop/Co...sid/0/SFV/30046 we did a build for a guy a while back in an old skool suburban, built a wall with 4 of those 15's and two "2400 watt" amps of the same brand. we were really disapointed, was nowhere near as loud as we would have expected from 4 15's on "4800 watts" anyway, both amps burnt up within a week. so we replaced them with a single rockford t8002. and it was a big improvement, last i heard it was still playing, but i doubt those subs will last long, they smelled like they were burning if you played 'em for more then one song i would strongly advise against them, they are "all show, no go" Quote '05 escalade - now for sale '96 civic hatch - 4 Sundown SA-8's on an Aq2200d TL numbers coming soon '00 suburban - 4 AQ sdc2.5 15's on 2 Aq2200d's 153.1db @ 40hz / 150+db on music now retired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayjay6888 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) there are plenty of other brands that have made a name for themselves in that same price range and the quality is better.... you could go with the majority on this site and get a dc LVL 3 15 which is around that price and you could also get a fi ssd or a 15 alpine type r from sonicelectronix.com Edited April 30, 2008 by jayjay6888 Quote 1 Fi Sp4 18 Crescendo 2k selenium mids audioque supertweets Hifonics for mids and and highs 1/0 power and grounds ---> on the way singer alt and possibly another 2k depending how sub likes 1 2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevrbumpn Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Yeah and I'm sure these subs have a 30mm xmax. Beat me to it, I was gonna say, " unless these have a 2" 1 way xmax, the excursion doesnt make up for the cone area lost in the oversized surround" Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
