Soundstream Rubicon

[T9X 10+ year member]

I've been browsing around eBay and various car audio sale sites and for some reason, the Soundstream Rubicon subs sparked some interest. I did a couple searches but didn't really come up with too much. I understand that they're a more SQ oriented sub but still has some respectable output. Has anyone had any experience with these (or the Soundstream Exacts)? Did you like them? Are they worth $155 for a 12"? Should I consider 2 of these to replace my 16Kv.2? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

excellent subs, great output- CF cone and a respectable 22mm xmax for a cross breed performance you get from it- great SQL sub with admirable SQ properties- you'd need at least 300-400rms a piece to get'm going(rated 600rms/1200pk)

The Exacts are an SQ only sub- tight, fast and flat-cannot dig down low as the Rubi

I blew one last summer ran off a 1kw amp, in a box too big to accomodate that power with a bass boost accident- even so I feel the sub is very well built and you should have no issues with them

I used to own the 10's and boy did they take more power then I thought. Check ebay because theres a guy that has been trying to sell two 10's for $75 plus shipping each unless you really have to have 12's.
