meh
indeedi guess that those quick to give them praises are equally guilty
Allstate FTW
Im not seeing any denounce how this sub performs. Are you? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
If, by ignoring the company you mean forgetting that they are crooks, and letting new consumers fall into the same trap because Im too lazy to warn them about these crooks.... guilty as charged. Ben has never owned up to anything he does, yet we are suppose to be good little boys and girls and just move on, forget about it. Im guilty of informing fellow car audio enthusiasts of a manufacturer/owner out there that likes to prey on the less knowledgeable/experienced of us. I wont let that happen, to the best of my abilities. if you consider that me being guilty of something, so be it.
Oh, so we as the consumers are at fault for Ben making a cone that wasn't feasbale? I suppose it was the consumers' fault they never got refunds too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
funkin audio makes them, that one comes to mind right away.
Again, PPI, to my knowledge, invented the nomex/carbon fiber cone later used on eD subs (am ong others). It DID come in a 15" version, and it did NOT have breakage issues. Of course, it was designed for a speaker with substantially less cone excursion (the PPI Pro), and hence had problems when added to a different design. As per usual, Ben didn't do his homework, and his poor loyal customers are the ones who paid the price. What a swell company.
Nah, the PPI Pro's were/are nomex honeycomb sandwhiched between two layers of carbon fiber. I have 2 of the old PPI Pro's sitting here in this room with me, trust me on this. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Beautiful cones btw, true carbon fiber look and feel rather than the fake looking stuff most ppl seem to use these days.
they used a material called Nomex. which (like all polymers) is a fancy word for plastic //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif . the only thing that made them unique/gave them their strength (but at the same time gave them some weak points) was that they had a honeycomb core, sandwhiched between two nomex plates. great in theory, but when you have the stresses that a cone goes under one part of the honeycomb is going to fail, and once one part fails, its all gonna fail.
Are you ****ing kidding? Allstate is the biggest joke of a company I have ever dealt with. Hell, I would rather be a customer of eD than a customer of Allstate. If you're with Allstate, just make sure you never get in a wreck, never get your car stolen, and pray nothing ever gets stolen from it. I was told by them that when my CD player got stolen that it wasn't covered because it wasn't the stock unit. Now, after the car was stolen, that I should have filed a claim for my CD player when it got stolen. When I wanted to file a claim for that as well, I was told I couldn't because the car had already been taken. Complete and utter bullshit and lies. Hmm.. actually, they sound a lot like eD.
I did when they stole the car but they wouldn't go for it for the headunit theft because they said car insurance covers that. It was all a huge ****ing scam. **** insurance and **** Allstate.
