New SSD neo's

Anyone have any experience with them? How much power can a stock take? How do they do on the lows? What kind of box sizes do they like? Thinking of getting some for my next setup, just would like to know what to expect out of them.

don't know about the new ones, but the old ones were a great sql sub. they get pretty low, sound good and have decent output. I imagine the new ones are a little better and the motor might be stronger with the neo magnets. can't go wrong with fi for bang for your buck

That's what I figured. Been wanting to try Fi for a while now. Was looking at the Q's but SSD's are $50 cheaper, and shipping costs are half.

Last I heard, they are no longer going to do the neo SSD due to costs.

no longer neo based but new cooling gives the SSD a bump up in power handling from what I read. The old ones were bad *** especially for the price.

heard the same, cause the rising cost of neo. really no need for a neo in this series of woofer anyway....

I agree with SPLaudio. It seems neo is the new bandwagon, but using a neo motor is no guarantee of performance. The only thing neo guarantees is weight reduction.

^^^This.

 

 

For massive wattage drivers (2000+) that need a ton of motor force, neo makes sense. For more daily driver sub woofers, it is not needed, especially when considering it as a weight savings. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
