[QUOTE="r0llinlacs, post: 7485641, member: 636634"] I work at a car audio shop. the 2010/2011 Power T1 subs are insane. 12" 800RMS. In a big slot ported box with more than enough power they are crazy loud. Power rating is very, very conservative. On 1000RMS it barely tickles it, even after extended periods. The voice coil cooling is absolutely superb, which attributes to the high thermal power handling. The whole cone is a heatsink, not to mention the other finned heatsink on the front side of the magnet, as well as being well ventiliated. Other guy I work with ordered two of the 12s, and one ended up being defective, just making a little noise in the voice coil. In order to get the serial number to RMA it, you have to cut the cone out of the sub, in other words destroy it. So before we did that, we decided to WALL SOCKET IT, yess always fun. Well, try to anyways. Plugged it in 120v AC, and off she went, crazy excursion. It was going nuts for 5 minutes straight, and wouldn't stop. But we had to stop, so we gave up. The worst it did was a little bit of smoke. Moral: the new Rockford Fosgate Power subs are bulletproof. Anybody else have the joy of having one? [/QUOTE]
