Help! Orion H2's Durability?

[Killacash 10+ year member]

Hi, My friends and I are coming up with a bet on who can beat the loudest. I just came from the car audio store here and he disrespected the Orion H2 saying they won't last and the sq is nasty. The store sells them for 200$ a piece which is sad because on ebay they sell them for 280$. I need input on how I can beat my friends sound system. One of my friends wants Mtx 9500 2 15" and the other has Cerwin Vega's Stroker 2 15". The question is should I drop my 4 12" H2 dreams and **** with something else or keep the faith??? Need Input.

Do your friends have good installs? What amps? What enclosures?

$200 for an H2 is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

They can take a pretty good beating, as seen in various videos pushing them just a little hard //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

That is a fantastically, stupendously awesome price. I say buy as many as you can and sell them to other people online.

They can take a pretty good beating, get decently loud, and still sound O.K. in my book. I say go for it if you have the funds to power all of them.

4 12" H2's would get pretty **** loud....IF you can provide enough power, i beleive they are kind of power hungry so that would be the main concern, but 200 bucks a pop is a real steal. At a local dealer here they sell them for $600 for 1 12!!! i was going to get 2 12's but out of my price range and i decided to go with 15xxx andi am happy with my decision. But i believe 4 12" H2's would be a killer setup, go for it!!!

i think 2 would already be absurd

get 15s!!!

Yea, I thought I was going insane because the store setup the Orion display just in the boxes like its not worthly to hear in the demo room and on the floor for 200$. The store that sells them is a Dukes Car stereo here in flint,mi.
