[QUOTE="recon440, post: 8734127, member: 636364"] Thanks for the advice. Good to know that the durability is not too much of a concern. From the looks of it most value-add resellers are generally just piecing together catalog parts and it seemed that the Resilient Platinums looked attractive as an overall blend of parts (assuming the coil is American-made and they are build state-site, but who knows). I live in Canada, so it was just a brand that piqued my interest as there was some stock here at a reasonable price where I wouldn't get fleeced by shipping. Interesting to hear that there may be better options out there which I'll closely research. To be honest, it's not exactly desirable to me to lug around of pair of ~65lbs woofers in a trunk so if there are some better options that at are a little lighter in the (3-5kW total power range, SQL oriented) I'd be interested in looking into that. Some other readily available options for me in terms of 12s that I was strongly considering would be: - Sundown U12s (I like the look of this one but it more cheaply built when I compare it to a pair of original Zv3 15s which I use in another vehicle) - Skar VXF-12 (this one just looks questionable from a build quality perspective) I'm in no rush to pick something at the moment but it would be nice to swap in some high-power 12s in my existing setup (6th order blow-through where you can see at the top of this thread): [URL]https://www.caraudio.com/threads/twin-18-pa-sub-6th-order-blowthrough-in-trunk-sanity-check.606693/#post-8724608[/URL] [/QUOTE]
