I've owned 2 of these subs for probably going on 6 years now, still same ones, and other than a little rust on the metal face ring, and some scuffs on the surrounds, they hit better than a lot of other woofer's I've heard. Don't know why people think they don't have a good frequency range, I dropped them into a prefab ported box, and they hit EVERY note I want in a 2011 Sentra, they hit perfect in a 93 MX6 too. I'm pushing maybe 600rms to both (300rms a piece) and they hit LOW and HARD! Songs like "Put On" and "Where Is This Going?" hit every note. If you put them in a spec built box they will hit better than most mainstream brands like Alpine, Pioneer, etc. Like I said, 6 years owning them and they handle whatever I throw at them, lows and mids both. For the money, you won't be disappointed. Unless you put them in a crap box to start with.

Had these subs and they are not good but i sold them for more then i paid for them so that was good. I have 6.5 front speakers with a bigger magnet and voice coil. Honestly there is nothing good about these subs at all they will not hit any thing not even mid bass no matter what you amp them with and they can really mess up your amp once the voice coil blows. I tried using them in a port box to spec tuned to 35hzs and no bump at all.

I got a couple of these along with a 1200w Rockford amp for $40 from a friend. Along with most Audiobahns, they hit pretty good for what they are but can't alot of frequencies.

Not bad in a nice sealed or slot ported box for a cheap daily driver setup.

I had these speakers in a small sealed box in the back of my Camaro till I flipped it multiple times. Then put them in a 97 Jimmy with huge ported box, my friend will spend 90$ on some p1's or $120 on some Pioneers. I have him beat by a good amount with $60 Audiobahns that are 5 years old. Right now there hooked up to a 1000 only pushing 185 RMS to each speaker at 4 ohms. I would have them bridged but theres no way since my amp is 2 or 4 ohm operation. I love them, going by these I would hate to see how many windows i would shatter if i got the immortal serious.
