Found on local craigslist.

Is this an older model or is it actually custom made.

he said he payed 900 for it and this is all the info:

4.5" voice coil

dual 1 ohms

unsure how much power it can handle.. it handled at 4000 watt rockford power series amp with no problem can handle more than it can throw at it

What do you think the value is on this?

4.5" voicecoil. BS. It also looks like a crappy recone on it. Id not pay over $100 for it myself. For something older like that, you gotta look at the shape of the spiders and glue joints. And its kinda hard if its not sitting in front of you to notice stuff.

looks like an old standard vfl. if it is it has a 3" coil & rated at 1500 watts rms i think.

yes that is what i just sold to oldschool4me and also just sold the motor/basket of my blown one to millzthayungin ... 3" coil, sounded pretty good and got pretty loud.

I'd offer $150 - 200... i'd like to have mine back //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

btw i blew mine after a few months of hard pounding in a daily box on my orion 2500d... in the same box it was a full 2db louder than my mojo @ 1 ohm as well on my 2500d.

He wanted 200 for it.

Why would you want to buy an AB sub with a bad recone and an idiot owner who is lying to you to make the sale? Holding out for a shakier deal?

Looks like he pushed the cone in then glued it on
