must be givin' DD dome for 2 free 99z's

I tell them to get something free and at least sell it to me for half price, but noooo they like to be little *****es and keep it. I offered 10 bucks for a 10" basket that he will never use, but he wouldnt take it. But he said he might be able to get me some 8s for 60 a piece, but i dont know which ones

The 99z retail for approx $5k, and can be had realistically for about half that (still expensive)... iirc.

If I went to a shop regularly to audition a piece, and somehting or another is always blown up, Id be skeptical of those guys. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

Speaking of skeptical, its not just any shop that would be getting free equipment from DD. if these guys aren't SoundWerks or something, then someone is lying.

doesnt the dd 99z costs like 15k? for the 18"? theres 2 of them at a shop? how can u blow one..they take like 40,000w

Hmmm although I dont' have first hand experience with the sub.... 40kw.... RIGHT burps maybe. (which you may be talking about) But you said it like it takes 40kw to do it. I bet it could be done off of a true 6 to 8kw if played for a decent amount of time (NOW that is still AMAZING). rememeber even most well built subs won't handle 2kw overall average power. My friend/teammate is getting about 2400 watts rms to each of his 2 18 inch fully loaded BTL's and he says since he upped the power to 2400 per sub they are STINKING BAD. But this is tested at 2400 watts w/ imp rise.

The new Z Series woofers have more Watts than any speakers we have ever built, so many Watts they got, that we thought of using a new slogan, Got Watts?, but that’s lame so we didn't. We tried to measure the exact amount of Watts a Z Series makes, but no matter how hard we tried to invent a machine to measure the speaker Watts, we could never do it, so they must really make lot of Watts.........

that is off DD's website. Now I might be missing something here or were they just trying to be funny???

Well for one, the magnet is basically open to air, thus making it able to handle more power without getting so hot. The coil is only 3" and is really thick.

Well..... what do you think? Do subwoofers make watts? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
They were trying to be funny.

juding by their t/s specs, i'd say they're being funny. also most people who have these subs use them in comp only extreme vehicle, (notice i said most) so those vehicles probably aren't going to show any flex.

A 12" BTL took 6000 watts no problem for extended periods in the great 12" challenge and soaked up a 10kw burp no problem. I'd rather have the BTL as well as Fi seems like not nearly as big of douche bags as DD.
