Up for grabs is my 8" Dual 2 ohm True Bass sub that I bought from Audio_Phill a while back. It's got roughly 2 hours of playtime on it at ~400 watts. It's rated for 300 watts RMS, but I've heard of people giving them up to 700 watts daily.

It gets loud and sounds pretty good doing it. IMO, they sound better than other output oriented 8's that I've heard, including the DD 1508 and AQ Street Duty 8. Maybe not as loud, but it's a good SQL driver. Put it in a nice .7-.9 cube box tuned to 33 hz and you've got yourself a nice sub for a secondary ride/space conscious build.

I'd give it an 8.5/10 visually, mainly because of some scuffing on the paint around the basket spokes, but I'm also a bit more discerning than others may be. This sub actually had a custom dustcap tooled. They normally have a red logo on a black dustcap, but this one has a red logo on a white dustcap.

I'm not very good at describing products, so I take more pictures than necessary //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

You can see the date of manufacture (Sept. 2009) and the model number (822) here.

A pic of the scuffing I described before, it's like this on every spoke.

Here are the T/S parameters pre break-in for this particular sub:

Re = 3.5818 ohms

Fs = 41.2453 Hz

Zmax = 49.5266 ohms

Qes = 0.4122

Qms = 5.2879

Qts = 0.3824

Le = 2.2514 mH (at 1 kHz)

Diam = 155.5750 mm ( 6.1250 in )

Sd =19009.4467 mm^2( 29.4647 in^2)

Vas = 7.5942 L ( 0.2682 ft^3)

BL = 15.0543 N/A

Mms = 100.6495 g

Cms = 147.9377 uM/N

Kms = 6759.6040 N/M

Rms = 4.9327 R mechanical

Efficiency = 0.1215 %

Sensitivity= 82.8622 dB @1W/1m

Sensitivity= 86.3521 dB @2.83Vrms/1m

And here's a set of fully broken-in T/S parameters from a random true bass 8:

Re = 3.4298 ohms

Fs = 37.3410 Hz

Zmax = 46.4751 ohms

Qes = 0.3413

Qms = 4.2834

Qts = 0.3161

Le = 2.2975 mH (at 1 kHz)

Diam = 155.0000 mm ( 6.1024 in )

Sd =18869.1914 mm^2( 29.2473 in^2)

Vas = 10.5085 L ( 0.3711 ft^3)

BL = 14.3582 N/A

Mms = 87.4380 g

Cms = 207.7628 uM/N

Kms = 4813.1816 N/M

Rms = 4.7893 R mechanical

Efficiency = 0.1506 %

Sensitivity= 83.7971 dB @1W/1m

Sensitivity= 87.4753 dB @2.83Vrms/1m

I'm looking for 60 bucks shipped anywhere in the Continental U.S. It will ship in the original True Bass box.

I will also trade for a pair of Tang Band bamboo cone mids (linky) or a 3-way electronic crossover.

If you have any other offers or other questions, feel free to PM me, or email me at modskwod@gmail.com . That being said, I have no particular need to sell this, so if I don't feel satisfied with the offers I get, I'll probably just keep it and put it in a different vehicle.

Thanks!

 
**** you, I hate you, burn in hell *******. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Had to list then when I have no money... Good luck with your sale, someone will like this sub!

 
Sorry buddy, I'd love to sell it to you, but i've already been paid! I'll tell you what, if the guy backs out, you've got dibs.

 
nice sub and good price GLWS... they make these subs in Knoxville TN and these subs new are like 180 i think nice price
Subs are built in Kingston TN by James Carroll, retail ave. $150 each I managed a 141dB (kick 44Hz 1600 watts TL) with 1 in 1 cube @ 40Hz in my 09 Scion TC. 136dB Headrest, 131dB Music 600rms, beat on the sub for 2 years then sold it to a local, the 2 modskwod bought from me were at the time and still to the best of my knowledge the only white/red combo's made. .8per @ 32 is sick in-car, the transience of mine in 1 @ 40 was ridiculous f3 around 35Hz though.
