Sold BNIB LA Storm X1.525C 5 1/4" Comps

[clbolt 10+ year member]

I have a brand new set of Lightning Audio Storm X1.525C 5 1/4" components. These are the most expensive LA comps ever, and were part of the same series as the TC-built Storm subs (the baskets on these mids match the ones on the Storm subs). They're exotic for LA; not only do they have titanium tweeters, but the mids have titanium cones and solid aluminum phase plugs. These also have some massive bi-ampable passive crossovers. The grills are black chrome with a brushed aluminum ring, and the tweeter mounting hardware is black chrome as well. If the only Lightning Audio gear you've ever seen came from Wal-Mart, then you've never seen anything like these. They're rated at 100w rms and 300w peak.

Here are the complete specs:

If you've never seen the LA Storm comps, do a little research on them. These are some serious drivers that Fosgate happened to hang the Lightning Audio brand on. The bare mids are worth the price of admission plus some.

Yeah, I hate to get rid of them. I'd like to find a set if the 6.5s and build an all LA system.
