look kinda nice, and u can usually get them at a few places with a buy1 get 1 free deal.
Weaknesses:
don't hit very deep, and, hit too high, but not sure if that's the way i have them set up or somethin.
Review:
i have a couple of em, and i dunno if it's just the way i have them set up, or just the way they are meant to be, but they don't hit very deep, and when i turn it up they tend to hit a little 2 high and hard. I have them in separate ported boxes (i did cut the ports 2 the specs suggested), hooked to a 200w punch 2-channel. I even tried them in a sealed box, and they actually seem to hit a little deaper, but that didn't seem to stopem from hittin to high, and once again, when u turn it up they fall apart.

great look and price
Weaknesses:
need more power handling
Review:
I have 3 hooked up into 1.33 ohms with each sub getting 1 cubic foot space and I have a Audiobahn a275hct wired to them and they sound great , I wouldnt suggest turning up the bass to loud but these subs slam

they hit really hard.
Weaknesses:
But like i said once u get the power going to the the teminals just fall apart.
Review:
This subs are good for awhile but once u finally start to put some power to theme they seem to just fall apart which isnt godd cause then u have to go and nuy more if your looking for a good pair of subs these are not theme. I would get MTX or JL audio there alot better quality and when you put the power to theme they can actually withstand it unlike these.

sounds really decent for the money
Weaknesses:
it doesn't seem to hit the beat as much....more like reverb than a hit
Review:
like i said it sounds more like a reverb than a hit but that makes they sound beefier than my friends sony 10....i have 2 hooked up to an mtx-4122 small amp and doesn't give these subs the credit that they deserve....but it sounds really decent....good for a start in the stereo world. I only have a few problems...1- my amp is too small....it sounds good on the old jensen 340 watt amp 2- it sounds more like it just reverbs not solid hitting but that is probably becasue of my small amp but my car's back seat just soaks up that reverb so it isn't as loud in the cab as it is when i hook it all up in my friends truck altogether though they were much worth the value and i can't complain much

they look pretty good. they are a good starting sub.
Weaknesses:
not enough power handling. not made well enough.
Review:
these were my first 2 subs. i bought em at circuit city not knowing what i was buying. i put em i a q logic box and eventually put em on a bigger amp. a JBL 600.1 mono amp. Badass amp. if you get any amp get one of those. might set you back500 dollars but it's well worth it. but they didn't really slam at first. i was pretty dissapointed when i found other people with less out slamming me. so i bought the amp and blew the voice coils out of em in like 2 min. they slammed for that 2 min but you know.

they hit verry hard and are a strong starter speaker
Weaknesses:
they tend to have trouble hitting lowere tones and tend to distort under them but that could be my box. (small bandpass,single)
Review:
i think there an all around good sub. i have them in a 88 dakota single cab with two generic 8's and it hits pretty hard in there its accualy kind of painfull! i think its because the cab is so small. if you have a truck i reccomend these cause i used to have a pair of mtx tens in there and they didnt touch these.

All around good performers. Don't need a lot of power to produce strong bass.
Weaknesses:
Not strongest performers for rap. Needs more power handling for more potential.
Review:
Very good subs for the money. All around good performer. Not very crankable and don't hit REALLY hard. VERY good start-up subs. Like them very much.
