Had some of the 1st gen ones way back when. Good subs. Don't expect too much out of them but they were decent for the money

the sales specs are interesting - specifically the 4" vc and the price, but I looked up the t/s data and winisd pro couldn't come up with an enclosure that produced a decent graph. Not sure what that means in a car, but it looks like it might be pretty loud 30-40 and not much else.

FWIW - in the same price range -- I recently installed an opti1232d, 2.7 @ 28 and for $150 I doubt I'll find anything much better.

i have a buddy that has used the 15" version of the SPLW. if you can get them for $100 new... they might be worth it IMO. we tried them in 6cf tuned to 30hz, then built a 8cf tuned to 36hz enclosure... both of them were not as loud as 2 12" type R's in the same 6cf tuned to 30hz enclosure (with an additional baffle to hold 2 12"s instead of 2 15"s). on the same amp. If anything, get type R's instead of the SPLW's.

If your not just huge into car audio and are looking for some sound go for it. I used to own the 15 and it was descent for me back then. If you look around a little harded tho you should be able to find something a little better

Thanks guys, I was just bored and looking into these since they handle around 1000 rms and it is in the same price range as the Pioneer W3001 d4(1000 rms ).

What I am really looking for are subs that can take 1000 rms on a daily basis and cost around 120-150 each.
