Guys, this speaker will not work well in a car inviroment, don't waste your money. This is a home speaker, built for that enviroment...totally different than a car.
Look at it, does it even have a magnet. If the cone is 18" and the voice coil is only 4"...hmmm it's gonna sound crappy at high levels. The purpose of the magnet is to pull the voice coil, which pulls the cone back down to get ready for the next response or impluse. I realize the quality of magnet is more important than the size, but in this case. take a look at a JL audio 12" speaker, yes I have JL 12's and I do like them but I would prefer HART speakers...but they don't make them anymore. This thing would have to have some kind of new technology magnet and voice coil to make this work and I'm pretty sure it isn't. The basket, cone and surround do look pretty good. I'm not trying to knock you guys down, just trying to save my fellow SVTers some cash.
