Dayton Home subwoofers

[dkmesa 10+ year member]

I'm looking into buying this http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=300-635

Does anyone have experience with it and is this a decent manufacturer?

Also, my other thread didn't really clarify things--If I split my computer's 3.5mm speaker output and use a cable to connect to the sub amp's RCA IN, will it work?

it has a low-pass filter, so it should work

home audio subwoofers are hard to buy without auditioning, tho

there's no room for tweakability if it's already assembled...

I'd go for their 10" Titanic kit instead. That one is a bit weak. Someone else bought that same sub an blew the Driver rather quickly.

I know it's pricier than the one you linked, but it would do the trick a lot better.

Can you afford that ^^^ kit?

I help a co-worker put on together, and it's almost as loud as my 12" Dayton RS HO with four times the power.

im the someone that bought that and blew the driver rather quickly...

but i still dont regret the purchase, for the price range, there is nothing else that even compares... if you cant spend too much on a sub, i still say this is the way to go. Just keep the gain around 1/2 and you shouldnt have to worry about blowing the driver.

Just for me some douchbags at a party turned the crossover and gain on the back all the way up and then were blasting it at volumes that for my line arrays are no problem, but for a sub on max gain and crossed over way to high(wtf??) it couldent handle it.
