[volonau 10+ year member]

Has anyone else tried running a couple of 8" bazooka tubes for there upper bass?

For instance I'm running 4-8" tubes from 55-85hz then one 12 r type in a 2.5 vented encousure from 60- down.

i highly doubt anyone is a fan of bazooka tubes on ca.com, not saying they are bad...but never heard anyone talk about them on here.

Why would you want that?

Just get a good subbass system to handle 70-80Hz and below.

I picked up a case lot of them on ebay for 2.19 cents and have been playing around with them.

I'm not a hudge fan of them either but now that I'm running them in this configuration I can't get myself to part with them.

They fit nicely under my present box and run nice with my Ma Audio 75x4.

I have two 10" Bt1024dvc bazooka models I'm wondering if I should work into my new cofiguration when I build a new box for my other R type.

Without the crunch phase four running these subs together wouldn't work period.

2-10"BT1024 350 rms MA Audio 55-85

If they work for you and you're happy with it, why worry about it?

Ever Bazooka I've heard sounded like a bum digging through a metal trash can. "Ding, ting, clink," (you get the idea)

If you don't have an idea of that sound: Get an empty coffee can and fart in it. Basically the sound of Bazooka.

I have tried running my four 8" and two 10"'s from 30hz to 85hz and boy they do ****.

The extra excurstion the 35hz takes to create means plastic resonance and way to much port noise.Thus giving you the trash can bum noises.

I've had apart the powered series and can see why the powered models get a bad name. Can you spell distort-i-o-n.
