2 12" PowerBass L-124D

[JoeK 10+ year member]

Im upgrading my 2 12" clarions to 2 PowerBass L-124Ds on a Lanzar MXA284

Does anybody have experience with these? There are little reviews and videos on these, but they are the top of the PowerBass line until you get into the XL series.

Really, I don't have any personal experience with the brand.... I just havn't heard anything good about them. Plus, it's a 400 watt woofer, with a 2 inch voice coil, and and 10 mm of xmax.... Not even close to excellent. Better woofers are out there for less than what I'm seeing these go for....

I guess the specs on those pb's are pretty average for your price range, lol. I just haven't heard anything good about the brand itself....

If I went for two new cheapie 12's, I'd probably get something like this....
