they are overpriced POS. For $480 u can easily set up a pretty decent system that would sound better and get louder then those Bass Tubes

Tubes are ok if you need a small light alternative. I had one in my rx7 and it served its purpose.

That site is crap, buy them here for less than $200 each

those tubes have quite a history, originally made by Southern Audio Serivces...they're actually stuffed transmission line boxes. Give some respect to them, they were the hot thing to have back in 1991, and they do get loud off of low power - which was their intended design.

I to this day have a old used bazooka tube i bought off of ebay for $15, but ive replaced the ancient & tired sub in it with a Diamond D3 8"... I use it for my home living room subwoofer these days, and it friggn bangs for what it is. So that that for what you will.
