Anyone ever heard of Sunfire subs?

A buddy of mine is trying to sell me a Sunfire 10" and I was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of/used them. It kind of looks like it might be TC based but im not sure.

nope

edit: after searching, it looks as if they are designed for home and outdoor use(like garden rock enclosures)

Home audio maybe, I doubt for outdoors though, it has parts that could rust.

It weighs about 30-35 pounds.

Yep, when he first said that thats what I was thinking, a sub from a Sunfire stock system, but this thing is way too big, and he said he bought it second hand as well so he doesnt have any info on it either. He was running 1Kw on it.

Yes'sir, Sunfire is a mid to high end home audio speaker, Made by Bob Carver if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, excellent home audio subwoofers.

Cool cool, do they have a website or somewhere I could find specs, I looked on google but couldn't find anything.

Anyone know the fs on this thing? Is $75 a good price for it?

Thanks.

Last thing, has anyone personally used them?

Never owned one personally, heard a few HT setups that used them. I was thoroughly impressed by the output, SQ, and size.....

Sounds good, If I do get it I think I might want to try a dipole enclosure, anyone have experience with these?

Oh and nobody answered if they think its worth $75.
