Is there really a car audio company called Diesel?

Wow...where have I been? More importantly, why did someone name an audio company after a clothing company...or a type of fuel for that matter?

I have no idea which is better, if I had to choose one based on the name I would say Audiobarn. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Seriously...Audiobahn makes a few good products. I have heard some decent Audiobahn driven systems. Some of thier amps are OK but I have never been a fan of any of thier drivers.

Good luck.

http://www.dieselaudio.com/

You won't find a single RMS rating on the whole site, just MAX and EXTREME TO THE SUPER UBER MAX!!!

Diesel amps may be reliable I don't really know, but what I do know is that I will never buy an amp from a company that makes its RMS ratings a secret to the public. Shit, even Pyramid and Legacy have PDF manuals of their amps available with actual RMS ratings listed.

Audiobling ftw.

As last time you posted;

We haven't heard of diesel;

That means diesel isn't marketing toward the enthusiast;

If they're not marketing for the enthusiast, they're probably not building for him/us either.

No, it's not the worst thing in the world.

But I do know what I'm talking about when I say it's not something I would recommend.

Skip both of these companies, IMHO.

im just bought an audiobahn amp on sale for a fair price, so i already have the amp and my box is goin to be set right around 33hz

 

[hcoronado 10+ year member]

it depends on the install, box tunning, and amp settings.

but honestly there is no way we can say if its going to be louder or not. Too many factor involved.

As far as amps and subs go.......I have never being a fan of Audioblah.

Since they are geared more towards looks then accurate sound and performance.

Yes some do get loud but sound like $hit.
