I was recently told from a reliable source that there are upgrades to the new H2's rolling off the line now

upgrades = foam surround. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

See, thats what i don't get. You admit the shit breaks ALL THE TIME, but you keep running it. That's like having your car explode and then you go and buy the exact same car. It's just retarded.

I've yet to find one good thing about an H2...

and I don't have time to count the number of woofers 3 used to be sponsored Orion competitors killed during the course of their seasons... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

its not user error, its design error...

its really funny that a company will claim that those drivers "can't" be reconed, due to the manufactuering process, when another company recones them in 15 minutues.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

and its sad that its cheaper to have china mail more over, then try to fix them...

love you Shaney poo //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

yea, thats tru, but idk. i juss like em for some odd reason.

 

[Spkrman]

because you have them and they "work".

new woofers would be louder and sound better... and they would actually stay alive //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

One big reason he sticks with Orion is Service //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif Anyone wanna argue that. didnt think so.

Now to throw my 2 cents in about the product. I have yet to blow any H2 subwoofers due to overpowering them and I can guarantee you I have used, installed, seen more of these woofers than anyone on this board (including you shane, lol) I have blown a few and have no problem admitting it and it was due to my own error or amps taking them out (again my own error though) or cones buckling(new surrounds helped that out alot and look better too, lol). Right now I DO run 4 1200d's to 1 H2 12 in my daily driver and it takes it fine. These subwoofers do seem to be alot more picky about the enclosure you put them in and the signal they get though but if done right they work great. One thing I will say is that I personally have had better luck with the 12's than I ever did with the 15's. The 15's seem to be alot pickier, lol.

The amps can be piky as well though although they do work awesome and are underated. How can you complain about something that gives you that much power for those price tags. The rca imputs on some of the 2500d's do seem to have issues and anyone that has run anything over 8volt(even some 8 volt headunits) have seemed to fry these (not sure why people are still trying it) the 1200d's were designed with a defect that only effects them when strapping them. Dont do it how it says in the manual.

I know most the people you are referring to and most if not all had no problems till they wanted to change there stuff around. Alot of times when you start changing things up some unplanned things can happen, happens to me and I think I know what I am doing too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif lol.
