Picking up a Kragen sub

Actually, in all reality, the more the coil heats up, the less power it sees //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
Really? I thought when the voicecoil heats up the more resistance the voicecoil has making it less efficient in turning electrical power into mechanical movement which causes more power to be turned into heat rather than mechanical movement.

Thats what he said with out being a nerd. More heat less bass.

 
but do these 15" subs come in 6 packs???

Unfortunately no. You must get them while supplies last.

Well I set up the sub today.

An amazing sub. Could easily take on a W6 but W7 is a little out of its league. Sounded way better than my 2 ED10"k's. Better go pick it up while supplies last.

 
did it sound o.k or like crap?
I was actually impressed. For $20 it sounded pretty good and the box that I picked up at kragen for $13 was crap. I think it used 1/4" particle board. At first I was like wow. It was mostly my amp I think. ONce you turn it up though the cheapness starts to show. Accuracy disappears and the output of the sub actually is less when you turn it up passed a point. It isn't as bad as I though it would be. My k's are tigher/more accurate. My k's play lower as strange as that sounds. My k's play over a wider range. This 15" sounds good in a small range of notes. music outside of this range loses all the bass notes because the sub simply can't reproduce them. The sub comes with a 30 day warranty. I don't expect the sub to last more than a few weeks. I'm not going to try and blow it up I'm just going to play at normal levels until it breaks. The 15" sub is actually lighter than 1 of my 10" k's. It must be that high quality space age 67oz gigamagnet that is lighter but is just as strong magnetically.

 
Update. Sub is blown Wow didn't last very long at all. Maybe a week and I didn't even abuse it. I know the signal wasn't clipped. I also was sending it 350rms, yet its max is supposed to be 1kwatts. Oh well fun while it lasted. That's probably why the sub has only a 30 warranty. When I push on the cone it sounds like the voicecoil is rubbing on the magnet.
