I've never heard them. TBH, I really hadn't heard of them, but bought a pair of the mf171 esotan 3 inch mid. I asked a tech support guy at DD what I should replace an aw3 with. It was his recommendation. I'm just curious if anyone has heard in use. From the numbers, it looks like a nice little...

Thanks for the audiofrog. I'll look into that 1. I had looked at hertz as well. I can't remember why I counted them out, but I know they make quality stuff. Awesome. Now I have 4 choices! Thx

well I'm going to answer my own question. LMAO. I'm going to go with dynaudio esotan mf 171. $300 a pair, and run at 4 ohm. or I could go with the dynaudio MD142 @ $800 for a pair!!!. And they're 8 ohm. Could even do audison. What's disappointing is that I called a few audio shops in my area...

DD made a 3" midrange about 4 or so years ago. The aw3. Don't quote me on specs, but I want to say it was 80 watts to 250 at 4 ohm. And if I remember correctly, I only paid like $300 for the pair. Well sad face me, DD doesn't make the aw3 anymore. This 3 inch was a bad azz little woofer...

😂 That's 2 funny. audio is definitely a business where if you don't have a clue you can get it done to you with no grease. LOL. I've been there once or twice. It's saddening because I think it will definitely get worse for brick and mortar, and finding legitimate dealers/installers. Ain't mad in...

I didn't take as such. Lol. A dig. I did like hanging out with dude, and I also did that when I was a kid. Lol. Guess I was not into car audio for a long time. Lol. And the best buys, tint/tire/audio places almost drove me back away. But being in my 40s when I met dude, He got me back into it...

LOL. NO DOUBT. I have a good enough brain that I could learn and understand all the wiring, but seems exhausting. Lol. I know what I like, and how it works, but I'd rather someone else put it in. Never had the time. Maybe I better learn. Fast. LOL. But like the gentleman above said, I couldn't...

shop I spoke of wasn't the one who put the JL subs in. THAT shop also put in 2 JL HD amps which if not wired properly will have problems, and the "authorized" JL shop should've known that, and they didn't. JL HD amps should be run on OFC only. I run it no matter, but those HD amps are...

The one that closed wasn't run of the mill. Place had a few shows. etc. Dude knew how to wire what he was putting in. IMHO, an audio engineer without a degree. I haven't had issue with wire/install since he did it. Although a noob on the site, not a complete noob in knowing what I have, how it...

Man. Weird things. Recently went to regular audio shop to talk new sub. Have 2 12 dub 7s. Voice coil blew after 7 years. Side note, while i love JL subwoofer sound, all amps, speakers, or anything else pretty much *****. I digress. So rather than send JL sub in for repair, I wanted to go with 2...
