****ing LOL!

They're 2 ohms so you need something 1 ohm stable. Forget about Pioneer or Alpine. You can get better amps for less money. Nothing wrong about them, but you can get more bang for your buck with other amps. I had two '09 4 ohm CompVRs getting 300W RMS @ 2 ohms from my Crystal CAM 300.2 and they...

Those are 400W RMS each. I assume they're 4 ohm, correct? If that's the case, you can use an amp that pushes 400W RMS at 2 ohm, since those have dual voice coils. There are many brands. There is not a special one that'd be the best. As long as you don't go for a crappy brand, you're set. Some...

Like I said before, I browsed since '01. I was in the Army, stationed in Korea. After September 11, I got selected to pull guard duty, so while I was resting waiting for my shift, I discovered these forums. Best thing since sliced bread. I decided to join in '04. I apologize for derailing the...

I'm not your son. I understand the slang, though. What I meant is that people here tend to instigate out of nowhere. This didn't happen back in '01 when I started browsing the forums. I lurked for many years.

Back when I joined these forums, it was all about discussion and helping people out. It seems that now it's all about being dicks and trying to get on each other's nerves.

Not really, and I don't think age has anything to do with it. I know 40 year olds that like sloppy, greasy bass. But I just stated my opinion. That's all. I know it didn't contribute anything to the topic.

What's up with the attitude?

I'm all up for SQ but I wouldn't pay $500 for a sub that I have to double check to make sure it's sounding. I mean, I appreciate the technology behind this subwoofer. It's a marvel. I'm not ignorant. This thing is science. But I like to feel the bass. The rumble. The aftertones. The dirtyness...

They're not installed anymore. I stripped my car, but before removing th system, everything was cherry, man. I'm very picky with my installs. Everytime I take out the wires from the amps, I cut them and strip "new" wire out. It's a mental thing I guess. But yeah. Everything was awesome. I think...

This Derick character is CRAZY! I felt like I was reading a 10 year old. True story.

I bet those puppies can make someone deaf in a minute.

Yes, man. Tinsels are intact. The cone has tight movement. I don't feel it loose. Maybe it was tighter before, but I can't remember. According to the Coustic spec sheet, they have 3" wide x 1.170" tall voice coils. They are the CF series. CF1244 model to be exact.

Thanks, man. Quick reply. But I asked them last week and they said they don't work these speakers. That I can buy other ones from them. Jeez. I specified in my e-mail to them that I CAN buy new ones but I don't want to. I just want these fixed. They are discontinued and for being cheap subs...

When they were new, they pounded hard. Now, they sound tired. They don't distort but you can notice how the bass just sounds loose and they don't sound loud anymore. Do you guys know of a place where they can recone them? They're in perfect physical shape other than a bit of surface rust on the...
