Mysterious subs?

Think again...straight from the horses mouth.
me: the truth about the destroyers...what did Tuan (Toxic Tuan of Team Toxic Bass) have to do with them..how many were made? where did the motors come from?

him: He bought them all. Well, the shop he worked for did. He bought a bunch personally though. We made like 50? 60? Concept CSP motors that were supposed to be engraved but werent. When Tony from Concept found out that the manufacturer of the motors wanted Concept to ship them to RE, he gouged L's into the back of all of them "Li".

Overview: Same exact motors except Concept's were engraved and had screens on their pole vents...RE used a 12-spoke basket that would only accept an 8" spider (which take 3" coils so the softparts had to be cut for the 4" coil) and Concept used a 6-spoke basket that would accept a 10" spider that held a 4" coil fine

The cut spiders is what held the destroyer back..uneven edges glued to teh former and you didnt get the full ammount of travel out of the diver because of the narrower spider.

Although it is rumored that Destroyers take 2500rms they are actually only rated at 1500

If your buddy wants a 4th CSP, i have a CSP (engraved) motor and 6-spoke basket for 150+shipping. I also have 2 destroyers (1 working and 1 non) I'm rebuilding here shortly.

...and now you know...the rest...of the story

i see... but late poast much?

there still for sale in green bay 700 for a pair of 18"s

mines an 18 too...not a bad price considering they'll outlast Destroyers which are only 15s and normally go for 3-350 on here

FYI the 18s never made it into production only the 15s. As far as I know Im the only one with the CSP motor that has the pole screen but not the engraving.

are they musical subs or kinda a one hit wonder?

 

[DJ Nitrous 427 10+ year member]

they were very musical...only having 2 spiders made them pretty responsive...just the joint of the spider and former would fail

 

[pawn man 10+ year member]

they sounded really good until dropped the tune freq. of the box too low.

sorry to bring a dead thread back up but i saw these subs on craigslist too and was wondering what kinda tuning they liked, how much power do they get decently loud on? i think i would run them at .5ohm on my vfl400.1 and would $700 be worth both of them?
