[QUOTE="wickedwitt, post: 7289336, member: 622908"] Tracey Focht? The thing I've noticed about the squares is that they still have the inherent qualities of the similar sized sub. In other words, while approaching the cone area of a 15, a square 12 still acts like a 12. The cones keep up with metal in ways a 15 or 18 never could. I don't care how impressive the sub, a 15 sub starts sounding muddy in large enclosures where the 12 squares are immune to this. The square cone was made exactly for all that stuff you said you disliked. It was made to be more efficient use of the box and cabin area. I've never seen my Xs warp like many many round subs have during vids on here (Skar vids are a prime example, they look like jello) Always knew the ridges were for cone stability, but what added weight they have for the cone, they make up for in a lighter surround material and different mechanics.
