Yeah, I haven't hooked mine up yet. How does it sound??

 

[04_edge 10+ year member]

it actually sounded pretty good, and i was getting some goodddddddd excursion out of it earlier...i only had 15 minutes to get it hooked up, i had a dentist appointment, so i didnt even screw it down...ill know later how it really sounds...

it definately looks well built, and beefy as hell, pics dont do it justice IMO...only complaint so far are the terminals...they were kinda annoying but im sure there is a reason for using them over the push button ones...

Hurry back! And report!

After 15-20 hours, give it a good critical listen.

I thought it only had 17 mm Xmax? You getting more than 3/4 inch? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Also, I'm glad that it didn't get messed up as bad as that box. It sucks when factory packaging can get torn up like that. I guess it did it's job though and got the sub there safely. Sucks that you have to package it on your own if you resell though. And I'm glad it sounds good in the box so you don't have to get out of car audio.

ok well i overexaggerated a little, but i was definately suprised with how much it was moving, especially considering how stiff the spiders were...
