Betcha these play lower than your tiny 8" mini, *cough*wussy sized woofer. By the way they are Car Audio Subs


pssst - it plays linear down to 9hz

I go away for a few weeks and all hell breaks loose here, dammit dave clean house!

And whats this about expensive rca's and speaker cable I hear This puppy is wired with lamp cord.

Back to the subject (which one, I dont know) Why do people think that Car Audio Product are just for your car? Oh no, I put my home cables in my car, I am going to hell...

Contour Driver SE- You say you have never heard a good car system. Let me ask you of the ones you have heard, did they ever compete and win a real trophy at a real show? I have sat in hundreds of cars, every owner says they have the BEST system. Most sound average, some down right terrible. But a good system is acheivable in a car. You mention low bass, acoustically cars enhance bass. Some enviroments do not have the same properties resulting in undesired boostings of other frequencies. That is what makes car audio a challenge.

Any one can go buy top dollar components, put'em in their home and *poof* beautiful music. A talened audio nut can do this same thing with their car. It just takes more time and skill.

The guy that dislikes bridging- Please explain, double the power, distortion is still way under 0.1 (unless running the Kmart special) so there's no harm. Personally if you ever had the chance to run one amp per speaker or door (this requires bridging ) You will hear much better stereo seperation and better imaging. Amps that are self bridging (meaning they have no push botton for bridge circuit) often have poor seperation and crosstalk.

So then do you have your gain up all the way to max (250mV) on your non bridged amp with like a 4V preamp output? (I wont start on the proper gain settings, its a pet peeve of mine)
