SE vs. Tempest

[RangerMan Premium Member]

Dude what kind of opinion do you want? WTF? you said you have used both so why the hell are you even asking? How many people do you really think have heard both and SE 15 and temptest? WTF? You think more than 1 MAYBE 2 people in here have heard either one? Dude make your own mind up if you've heard both. I haven't heard the Temptest so how can I go off anything else but the looks? I guarantee there are a VERY limited amount of people that have ever seen or heard both. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif

I've heard both...John has...Steve has...Loyd has...probably more.

sorry "in here" I meant in the thread

then when i said the amount of people that had heard both would be very limited, i mean the forum //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Should have made that clearer.

I want an honest opinion. Involving build quality, performance, etc.

Yes, I've heard both. They're both very nice drivers. But I'm stuck, and like every other person on the forum, is asking which one they would choose in X situation with X variables.

[stangme01 10+ year member]

I think david summed it up very nicely, for me their would be no more decision making //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I am also very curious about this subject. I have a 600 watts (underrated) @ 2 ohms amp and I want to build an spl box and get a 15" sub for comps. I am in an SUV and am curious which would be louder. I have had great experiences with my fiance's Re 8's and would love to try another one of RE's products. Keep going.

Keep in mind Tempests are dual 8 ... so you'd need to power a single one @ 4ohm. Two of them would work @ 2ohm.
