Devon Unregistered guest | yep this is for my new benchmark 12" sub(benchmark is a local car audio shop that has own line of subs)...700 watt rms. 1500 watts max. 8 ohms.i dunno the price yet...http://www.benchmarkaudio.com/ilnatguardinstall.asp...only pics i could find of them... |
russell p Unregistered guest | how about refurbished subs? do they require the same break in time? |
Bronze Member Username: Djeter108IN USA Post Number: 85 Registered: Nov-04 | Well ask them them if they're local and they make the subs. I would assume that one should take the same precautions for a refurb. Same answer as before: wouldn't you rather play it soft for a week so you don't have to go spend another 300 bucks? |

Silver Member Username: Addicted2bassMiami, FLORIDA USA Post Number: 116 Registered: Nov-04 | my guess is no more than half....... DO anybody in here deal with CVR subs. I konw they sound good. BUT would 850-900w rms be enough for 3 12's? Is it possible to hit 130's in a sealed box? |
