Awesome stuff Jacob, and even better just at the right time, everone is low in $ and you come out with a loud streetbeater for a great price. I hope we see it in production soon.

Wow, very interesting. I've always wanted to try out some sundown products... when I get the money together (which will be a while anyways) for 2 RE SE's I might get 2 of these instead. Seems like the same specs... Subscribed for videos.

Depends on how you are on the volume. That is, what, 1500 watts at 2 ohms ?

It seems very capable of taking that amount of power on music -- on sine waves it still seems to be okay as long as you are within mechanical limits. I wouldn't try to play a 1500-watt sine wave for an hour or anything, though.

I say this because "music power" is far less than actual RMS power... I'll clamp mine on music to see exactly how much power I was seeing when driving home yesterday, it was more than fine during that time. The music I used yesterday for clamping was Bass Mekanik so WAS pretty much constant power.

We are also extending x-mech in the motor to equal basket limitations - so it should be ever more resilient to short term bursts of musical dynamics!

rumblebee2,

We may do a pre-order once we get a good, solid ETA.

kmanian,

Me too! I have a few vehicles I'd love to put these in for friends and family //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Would also be a good candidate for a huge 4th order wall setup.

Since I test with ear plugs in I sometimes forget just how loud over 140 dB is.

Nice and ugly boxes. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 

Nice job on the numbers so far.

hey Jacob, how would this sub compair to the x-12 I used to have. I'm now wishing I never sold it.

Very different T/S specs but the power handling is similar - both are good sounding drivers too. It is really a very different design but the outcome is fairly comparable.

I might have to look into one when they come out. I'm sure that will make the wife happy. She just loves me buying more audio goodies.

so pre-orders in about 90 days? i say i'm on the new "forum boner" bandwagon-lol

Nice looking driver for the price...look foward to seeing how these do. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
