Gold Member Username: Mikechec9Post Number: 2426 Registered: May-05 | Finally replaced my Brahmas. We'll see how these do. I plotted them on WinIsd, and the curve patterns the IDMax to a T. I decided not to talk anything about these until I got them, bc everytime I do I decide on a different sub Well, I went to pick these up today, and they ordered the wrong impedance (D2). So I dropped my loot and should have the 4 ohms manana (running 800w to each sub @ 4ohms-400w/vc, 1 amp per sub). Right off the bat, I noticed these things have great build quality. I'm not going to install them until I get down south and redo my entire install. Right now my box is 1ft^3. Building a 1.5ft^3 for lower end. I'll try and give a review after the install (If nothing else crazy happens tomorrow to prevent me from getting these things. It's always somethin). Anywho, here's the picks. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl122.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl121.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl123.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl124.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl125.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl126.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl127.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/mikechec9/arcfl128.jpg |

Gold Member Username: Mikechec9Post Number: 2428 Registered: May-05 | Thanks. Originality is always an objective (hence my custom Brahmas). If they are all they are cracked up to be, the Arcs will be the first great "flat" subs I'm aware of without inherent design flaws. |

Gold Member Username: Mikechec9Post Number: 2433 Registered: May-05 | I got them for dealer cost. But msrp is just over 400.00/sub. They handle 1000w continuous, but if they are as similar to the ID Max as they seem then 800w will be perfect. The .9cubes suggested on their site was for optimal power handling. So handling will decrease in 1.5 cubes, although they are still supposed to be underrated at 1000w rms even in the bigger box. I'll stick with 800w jic. |

Gold Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 1147 Registered: Jan-06 | man if i could get those at dealer price I'd sell my Mag for a pair of them. I'd love to have them, i've heard one pair and they were lovely and I love the simple look of them. Quite nice you lucky lucky man. |

If the users here only new the volumes to which this speaks of these drivers. Now I'm really excited to hear them. I didn't think anything could convince you to relinquish your mag |
