The motor looks kinda small for a 3hp. It'll be easier to tell w/ the boot off. IIRC, tc9 have no more than 2 slugs, either .75" or 1" slugs

I can tell you right now looking at that back plate it's a 3hp. Notice how it's a lot more rounded off than a tc9.

It's very simple. The aluminum cone drivers have a TC9 motor, the titanium cone drivers have a 3HP. The only difference between the 8 and 9 series titanium is the QCA. The 8 series titanium does not allow for removal of the top assembly, the 9 series does.

SO SIMPLE INDEED!

For real though I'll take your word on that. I've been lied to by more than 1 person about those motors I guess....

**** TC subs gets me confizzled. The motor on my sub is supposedly a 3hp, but has a diff bottom plate of those in the pics above.

Pic below. 3x .75" slugs, from an early rl-p: 3hp or tc9???
