I was just on the REAL OF EXCURSION website, and there are a few videos where it shows the outer part of the sub flexing in rediculous amounts, like the cone was flexing like a wave, is this normal, and why does it do that. I dont think ive ever seen my subs do this.

Second question is about tweeter horns? Why are they so expensive, and why do very few cars have them?

And to add to this, How do i Hook up a car audio subwoofer to a home theater system? Where do i get a home theater amp big enough to power say, a 600+ watt sub, like the MT. Can i use a car audio amp anyhow?

i think i know what he means. there's one in particular where the cone isn't just bumpin it's like making a wavelike motion as if it's getting some wierd signal and too much power

i think thats because its a steady tone and not like music with different notes and freq's making the driver pretty much stay excurded but vibrating like hell creating an optical illusion type thing.
