[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 8618290, member: 590338"] Speaking of FB groups.. Made me think of Fanatics Bass Groups, FB Audio. As we are a dealer for both FB Audio and Alphard, there is a reason why we will not install Alphard subs in our car. As the future comes, less weight is required in our vehicles. Better fuel economy, lighter vehicles, etc. The first big step in car audio is moving to lithium. The next big step is using lighter subwoofers. When we first got FB Audio into the USA 2 years ago, one thing that stood out from this complete fresh new buildhouse is the weight of the drivers. 63lbs for a 5,000wrms driver 51lbs for a 3,000wrms driver 34lbs for a 1,600wrms driver And so on.. My Ethos i purchased when DSS first started was rated at 1750wrms i think and was 61lbs. I've had DC XLs back when they were rated for 1500-1600wrms and were over 50lbs if i remember right. That's too much weight for such small drivers. [/QUOTE]
