Audiobahn - Why all the haters?

Seems everyone here absolutely HATES Audiobahn, why is that?

In terms of price, and what kind of power they offer, I think they are a great buy.

What does everyone else think?

IMO their not bad i have a 12" 1206t in my boat and it does OK(first install). i think people dont like them because they spen most of their time making the sub look purrrty; like the chrome flammed basket and w/e else they do. o and they also sound like poo. But thats jus my guess and expierence on why their hated

Well, when Audiobahn first went to chrome flames, I think I went through 2 12's and 4 10's in a month. Sounds like crap. Looks like crap.

Funky Pup > Audiobahn

Would Profile be considered better than Audiobahn?

profile amps? i'd put them on the same level

I'm not an Audiobahn fanboy or anything, I was just curious.

I currently have an A8002T (my 2nd one, 1st fried), and an A4004T.

I wouldn't have bought another A8002T, if something else came close to its features/power in my price range.

I always figured Audiobahn was considered better than Profile.

Some people just put them through more than what they can handle. So it says it can take 2000rms, and most people know they can't. But then they still give it 2000rms? They over state the power handling / power output everybody knows that. Every other company understates their power handling / power output. Every one knows that. People expect things to do what they say. When 90% of the companies don't. So people get AB products and try to give them rated power knowing that it can't handle it. That's just retarded. If you know something can't do something. Don't make it do it. Even if it says it can. I had 2 aw1206t, gave them a 1000rms a piece for a year and a half. I was doing alot more with those 2 12" then some of my friends with 15"s. I just knew what they were capable of and only gave them that. Plus I had the proper install. Everyone knows that is what counts. So if you can make a product last for years and sound good to your self and others. Where everyone else blows them and can't make em' sound good, what's that say about yourself. And what's that say about everyone else. I am not targeting any of the last posters. So if you take this as attack against you, then you are ignorant. Just stating what everyone has.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....didnt know that....

They are way over priced. They cant perform anywhere near as well as other subs. They sound like shit too.

I would never ever buy one.

The sub that mythbusters made has better quality //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 

[Buick3800power 10+ year member]

How about their amps?

 

[04redmach1]

Amps aren't horrible.

 

[supraman1379 10+ year member]
