GNX108
10 Inch, 8-Ohm Car Subwoofer
Push It To The Limit
Is a subwoofer frivolous? I don't think so. Imagine your car without carpeting. Imagine your word processor without a spell-checker (did I spell "frivolous" right?). Imagine The Beatles without Paul. You get my point. What good is pounding beats, if you're not pounding, dawg? Plaster bass all over the place, with this 10" diameter, 8-Ohm Car Subwoofer.
Like all the GNX Subs, it's totally optimized to work great in virtually any type of enclosure from Sealed to Vented to Band-Pass (if you can build it, GNX will rock it!)... Without emptying your wallet.
- GNX Subs are available in two sizes, 10 inch and 12 inch, and three flavors of impedance, including Dual Voice Coil models (which can be paralleled for 4-Ohm or 2-Ohm loads).
- Optimized for high performance in virtually any enclosure type: sealed, vented and bandpass.
- Super strong and durable Poly-Mica Cones for gut-pounding bass.
- Huge, injection molded ABS dust cap further stiffens the cone to supress unwanted resonance. You get incredible low distortion, high impact bass response.
- Extra beefy (beefy!) magnet structure and motor assembly for high output bass with tight control.
- Four-layer vented voice coil runs cool while your music stays hot.
- Vented pole piece for higher efficiency and ultra high power handling.
- Gold-plated three-way wire terminals for secure wire termination (fast-on, solder or screw terminal choices)
- Durable rubber surround for extended life performance.

The tight bass produced although with more airspace to work with they would definitely mellow out and quake!
Weaknesses:
I can't park my car in my living room!!
Review:
I've finally finished installing all my new equipment and I have to say I'm definitely impressed. These 108's are SLAMM'IN!! I had two 104's in a bandpass and was totally happy but I upgraded my system and incorporated the 108's in a bandpass and I'm breathless everytime I hear them boom and punch me in the back of the head with their bass! The box I have is a little small on airspace but even so they kick major &**! Their definitely worth the money!

0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.Strengths:
very high efficiency, flexible enclosure options
Weaknesses:
break-in time is bit long, and they only sound so-so until they are fully broken in - then they sound good. The cone is very fragile and will break easily if your screwdriver or drill bit slips out of the screw.
Review:
I have two of these in a Q-Logic bandpass running off a Rockford 201S (certified 260w RMS), so each sub is getting 130W RMS. Holy crap - I have the gain set to about 1/3 and these things are LOUD. The 93db efficiency rating is no lie. You need very little power to make these go very loud, especially in a bandpass box. If you can still find these, get them because you will spend so much more on an amp otherwise.
