I pooped a hammer
Well i picked these up on a order and i didnt know what to expect, i had seen the performace of all the other woofers, and well this was a new line of subwoofer that they released recently. The woofer retails for about $225 there rated at 500 watts rms and they come in dual 2 ohm models. They have the lifted surround which im kind of fond of, and a 3" voice coil, the magnet is hefty i think its like 150oz im not sure, but its a decent size. Theres a little mesh grill from the motor to the actual bucket, were you can see the actual coil, not that has anything to do with anything but i personally like it....well we put 2 12"s inside a box thats tuned to about 45hz and is about 1.8 cubic ft per chamber....i have them wired at 2 ohms for daily driving. There wired to a dx1500.1 one of elevations old amps thats rated at 1500 @ 1 ohm, 1200 @ 2 ohms, 800@ 4 ohms, well when wired @ 2 ohms we got a 144.7 in the kick. Which was decent the box was just thrown together by my buddy, when ever i take everything out im going to resin it clean it up probally paint it or something make it look all fancy so when i get a suv the box will be all purdy not to mention decently loud for a daily. Well after running it @ 2 ohm we wired the amp down to half an ohm then re-adjusted the amp, did a second burp and we got a 146.3. Not bad and the subs seemed fine. After running the second test we tested the speaker wire to see what load we were running, and for some reason it was reading 1 ohm, not sure why...but then thats still not bad considering the sub is rated at 500 watts rms, and not to mention its putting up some pretty decent number's... When i get time im going to fool with them more and make a video.

Wasnt bad I actually really like the woofers, i bet if i was to get more power on them and work on the box and really try we could probally squeeze out a 148+
My over all opinion is they are a great woofer for the price Unfortunately i didnt get to try them out in a sq install yet but when i do i will also post that to. Anyways if ya want to know anything or if you have any ideas or suggestions please let me know!
thanks guys
