Favorites and least favorites.

I'm sure this thread has been done before, but I'm a noob and want to start an updated one.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif So what is everyone's favorite subwoofer they have owned or heard? Not necessarily the loudest or cleanest, just one that you fondly remember. My favorite would probably be my brothers Ascendant Audio Mayhem 15. And what is everyone's least favorite they have heard/owned? For this mine would have to be a buddy of mines MTX Thunder 4500's, I'm not sure why, but I hated the sound of those 12's.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/suicide.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif

FAV - The MTX Escalade with 2 jackhammers, the farther you got away from it the louder it got

Least - Same **** truck, they sounded so bad...plus the amps kept clipping

My favorite was a sounstream MULE I loved those 12 svc 600rms and pounded never gave me any problems and loved whatever box I put them in

Oh and I forgot, this old Jensen (I know, "bad brand") with a white hand on it! The sound quality was pretty bad, but it hit okay, and it was durable! We beat the crap out of that thing. Hooked it up to a Rockford T1500 and blasted it. We never actually killed it, the surround ripped, the dustcap popped off, and it smelt awful, but to this day, that sub still works! It was also the first sub I ever had, so it is remembered fondly.

Probably catch some flack for it, but I really liked my alpine type-x's.

Least- MTX Thunder's - don't remember which series they happen to be because it's going on 15 years ago or so now. Probably didn't help that I had them stuffed in a prefab bandpass box for my first system ever.

Least, i would agree with the mtx road thunders 12inch bottomed out on 100 watts. Favorite, re audio se 10d4, have a set now in a double07 sealed box powered by my new fav amp, saz1500v.3.

Favorite - Audiomobile Evo 10" on my Audiosystem Twister F6 at 2 ohms bridged

Least favorite - My buddies clipped Infinity 1060W in a prefab box on a crappy Bazooka amp.

Fav= JL Audio 10w3v2 in a ported box. Played every note and all music and was loud on 360 watts.

Least= never personally had a sub that I ever hated. Just had some I liked more than others.

Fav: 1999 Orion HCCA-15D

Least Fav: MTX 6000 12"

That orion was SICK, I miss it dearly //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif The MTX's I had 2 in a sealed enclosure and I just wasn't impressed at all with the way they sounded, luckily for me I didn't pay much for them and was able to flip them pretty fast and move on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

I have to agree w/ the Adire Brahma MKII.

I used to have a Adire Brahma MKII 10" D2 on JBL BP1200.1 w/ Harrison Labs 30hz HPF Fmods in 1.3ish cuft @ 28hz....w/ the old Pioneer DEH6400 HU.

Damit, that 10" sub was seeexxxxxxx....I just wish Dan could have kept the company alive, and the XBL^2 idea would have progressed even further!!!!!

Favorite: Savard Pro. Was just like the OLD kicker competitions, but better (I really wish they'd come back, I still have a Rap 15")

Reason: No matter how it was setup, no matter the box, they hit so **** hard, and sounded clean.

Least Favorite: All 9 of my JL12W6s in '97.

Reason: Magnets slid apart after playing for about an hour. (subs were about 6 months old) YES MAGNETS SLID APART UNDER THAT RUBBER COVER. And JL would NOT warranty their product, saying I over-powered them drastically.
