RE comps vs CDT comps...

You ever actually give them 300rms though ?

is it that he wouldn't be giving them the 300rms per side if he sets the gains on the amp low?? Just trying to clear this up for myself.

Music is dynamic (i.e. changes frequently) so it will never stay at a constant wattage output. Plus the amp won't put out it's "rated" power unless pushed very hard. Under normal listening conditions, with a "300 watt" amp you will never ever actually send that much wattage. Send a 0db sine wave at full volume and you will, and that is about to the only time except for maybe very short transients at a pretty high volume, and even then it would only send the power for a very, very, very short period of time (like, milliseconds).

A true 300w will kill just about any midbass on the market.

not to hijack but the re comp adn cdt cl-61a comps are the same price, which one would you guys think would sound best, by the way i liek soft highs and be able to get the low notes decently on it

But thezeb isn't the only CDT outlet. Supposedly that Tplaya07 has them for a better price than thezeb.

Yeah I got my cl-62's for 165 shipped from djdilliodon There brand new sealed and they are warranted for 3 years they list @ 349 or so on the zeb (which is what the receipt he sends shows for warranty reasons)..... So you can save a bunch of money on the cdt's which would make em a better deal in the long run ....

I got my CL-5X from the Zeb, and then I bought my EF's, HD1020 sub, upstage kit, and some other stuff from lightav in Texas. CDT drop shipped them to me, and the prices were dirt cheap.

how bout this, they got the cl-62's for 150 shipped and the zeb has the cl-61's for 150, which is better? the 61 or 62?

I believe its the basket that makes that different

 

[dthadamaja 10+ year member]

just curious as well. cdt states the cl-62's do 150 rms, is that for each side or for the whole set.

 

[supa_c 5,000+ posts]

150w per component.

300w a set.

Only stupid people list the power for a set= ebay

I have a hook up if you want some CDT gear
