THE Thread

so for now, definitely SQ
A single '12O, with a very large or IB install, will make your ears bleed from the sheer SQ //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

They don't like ported enclosures, but will shine in all sorts of sealed alignments.

 
The O retailed for around $180, IIRC...so you're getting a hell of a deal. I own the next step up from that, so I sort of know what I'm talking about...maybe. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

There are other perfectly good drivers in that price range - Shivas, Type R's, Comp VR's, others come to mind, and I've heard most of 'em. The O will kick those drivers in the dust for SQ, but since those other ones can be ported, they have the output advantage. But as you said output wasn't a big concern...

 
meh, if he doesnt want it, he doesnt want it.

but do come share our joy someday //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

this could be a very cool sub to own i suppose.... i could probably construct a decent sealed box myself too, maybe even do some custom shyt and have it pointing straight up in my car from the spare well... mm. fiberglass maybe. mmm dont know how to glass ... yet...

there's an MK IV shiva for sale in the CA Classifieds for $90 shipped. That might be neat too.

 
I might be selling my Shiva soon...if I can find a good replacement driver for the van //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Thinking of a medium-to-high-power 18"...or going ballz-to-the-wallz and putting a 15" in a folded horn.

 
204.

12o definetly has SQ.

But its no shiva Jim //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

As for output, in 1.5 sealed versus 3ft^3 ported for the Shiva its definetly a win.
