Is this true?!!?

it didnt come out yet....but when it does the Parthenon 12 will fluck up the 13w7 real hard..i cant wait...i believe adire audio is making themthey need 2 make 10 that will take out the 12w7

The parthenon is already out, it's not a common production driver however, as it takes them 8 weeks to make a single one, built to the specifications the costumer desires.

Also, there is not a "size" that they come in, it's a common motor that can power anything up to a 48" x 48" "cone" and it has 12" peak to peak movement...aimed more at theaters than cars.

cost: over $5000

EDIT: I hate you squeak

Nothing but a dipole woofer

BTW - it is NOT intended to be put in a vehicle...if you figure a way to put one in there, good luck keeping the vehicle in one piece //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You'd Imagine it Would hit a lot higher then just 160...**** looks like the thing could do over 200! LoL Even though I'm sure it doesn't...Are you sure about that SqueK? 180 or so? If so thats rockin'

 

[NDMstang65 10+ year member]

180 is pretty much all that is capable in our atmosphere....

Underwater now is a different ballpark

dude..this is NOT going to be produced
RC just had fun with it..just because...

so no you can't buy the **** thing and put it in your civic hatch back

Hmm, I'd like to politely say that NO.

Though on the outside it appears I am an ignorant Honda driving scumbag, (which is true in some lights)...

I was merely attempting to create a meaningful comparison between this sub and the local favorite the Parthenon.

As long as you got $5k+, shouldn't be a problem

Also, FWIW, Steven Kephart(sp?) has stated that there are a few that will be put into vehicles //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsupwink.gif.129404938effda6ad9cca39e7f4b58a3.gif It was on this forum as a matter of fact........

WTF is it with people mentioning the Parthenon, it is a DIPOLE DRIVER meant for theater applications. It has NOTHING to do with ****in anything in this thread...and really nothing to do with a w7, period. AND qtipextra...DO NOT MAKE ANOTHER NEW THREAD about the parthenon after you read that shit...

NG

Right...How many people on this board do you HONESTLY think will be running one in one of their vehicles? (i mean come on man..he's trying to compare it to a fricking w7...)

Go for it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif...it's a great woofer, i'm not doubting that a bit. Put it in a car..good luck getting the car/vehicle to stay together //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

This is TRULY NOT meant for your average idiot...regardless if they have money or not...there's a hell of alot more then buying a big sub and putting a bunch of power on it to get something work...and work properly...you know that

Not disagreeing with you........not every idiot off the street can accomplish it. Just pointing out that it appears there are some that will show up in vehicles, per an Adire employee.

Also...since this is a $5k driver we are talking about, I'm sure there will be avid amounts of technical support available should any be needed, regardless of the application //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/satan.gif.9c6a335ed7aeeed3ee273e573f1fcaac.gif
