How is the TW5? Anyone actually heard one?

I finally had my box built yesterday... the sub is pretty amazing for the size, more than happy with the SQ, the only issue ive run into is that I wish my amp could push the sub another 100 or so (running it around 480), the sub can definitely take it.

I think you'll be more than happy, and if I were you in hindsight I might try that PG amp (no experience with them), budget friendly, great rep and it could power the sub to its full continuous wattage

Either way 13tw5 is an insane piece of technology

how would that 13tw5 compare to the new SI bm....?

i'm thinkin an SI BM on a zx500.1 would probably sound just as good and be ALOT cheaper if you were on a budjet, but just a suggestion, you already bought it and you seem to love it. you know what they say, if it aint broke don't fix it.

you cant compare when the BM isnt available yet

the TW5 is comparable to the W6

i ran 2 on a 1000/1v2

the SQ was amazing

#'s werent that bad considering its a SQ woofer

mine were downfiring which kept my #'s a little lower than they could have been

in my ranger they did

138 @ 45hz

not horrible for downfiring with only 500 to each

they can take a lot more than that tho

nope the MAG has been available for a while

several variations of it

the BM was supposed to be available by 3rd quarter or so this year if i remember right.

havent heard anything about it really in a while though
