Hello

I made some very special Motors (and 2 subs) for an SPL application several years ago. All of the stock sub and motor parts were new and machined for this app. The design required a lot of extra steel and a huge shorting ring to be added to the stock motor parts so I machined several extra pieces to make 4 motors. (* the 2 I have here had extra special attention over the other 2 that have been sold, they have a little more force, though it doesn't matter because they all 4 have more force than any other motor I know of)

Here is the extra stuff that's been done to the motors:

machined a bigger diameter and longer solid low carbon pole

cut off the T and machined the backplate for a press

machined a smaller diameter steel ring to press inside the topplate gap

machined an alum core to take up the inside of the motor

machined copper rings to fit on top and bottom of the alum (*never got put in..)

added an extra .75 magnet slug

engraved the logo my bro drew on the back of the pole

used a super tweaky edge wound underhung coil in the protos

The sub and top assy are new and have never been played other than the 1 watt from Praxis for measurement. (they are Single 3ohm) The only issue at all is the Top Assy has had the dust cap dented, I pushed it back out but it should be reinforced or replaced to assure no issues.

I'll offer either the Complete 12" Sub or the Motor and Top Assy (together) for a sale or trade.

I'd like to trade for a mint condition (old style) SounDigital SD3000 or SD5000 or a CA Handgun (cash either way depending)

I'd sell for $1100

Serious Interests Only Please

I couldn't take any good pics so I just took a bunch:

*NOTE:

I would like to meet to complete any transaction. I will drive half way depending on distance to assure safe goods.

I can not ship the Complete Sub at all and may consider shipping the Motor and Assy but that will get real costly and require a crait for the motor.

Please consider this before wanting an out of state transaction.

Thanks

Matt

Thanks for the bump and kind words Tom!!

Yeah sure we can meet half way, did you want to do a drop from our planes or just toss it from boat to boat??

Thanks again and have a good one

A note about these motors and subs:

People seem only concerned about the power handling.

These motors were designed to run off of 500 watts each.

The coils may be able to take 3-4 times that but the design intent was to be super efficient and not need tons of power. (the 4 subs were going to run off of 2 Zapco 9.0's)

I just wanted to note that these motors were made for Max Efficiency and Not Power Handling. (tight sealed gap) It's also noticed too, because they are 4.5db more efficient than the Neo test subs I made at the same time. (and the Neo's hit above the WR at the time in 2 orgs with no testing..)

Thanks for the interest

Not sure if ppl realize just how special these complete drivers are! I own one of the remaining 3 out of the 4 that still exist in one piece, but mine is just the motor as I don't have the parts to finish it atm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif I am not sure if ppl realize on who the OP is, but lets just say that he knows his stuff and he knows it very well! Anywho, I won't continue to clutter up his F/S thread any longer...

Good Luck with the sale or trade Matt!
