Bronze Member Username: Themax96seUSA Post Number: 20 Registered: Jan-05 | Also I was wondering why it would come shipped wired to 8ohms? When could 8omhs be used in car audio? I was thinkin about buying 2 of these, and receive free shipping. |

Anonymous | Cheap sub, small box. They look ok, but nothing spectacular. You could buy one, rewire, test it. You'd probably get your money back on Ebay. |

Bronze Member Username: DrumjunkyBoulder, Colorado Post Number: 45 Registered: Nov-04 | in general, I've found crutchfield to be a great place to research things becauses it is so user-friendly, but their prices usually are way high...more around MSRP than other merchants. I would suggest lookin' around at other sellers to see if you could get it cheaper there; or for something that is in that price range that you are more familiar with. I wouldn't worry about if an enclosure is apart of the deal when deciding on a sub...the materials usually only cost $20-30(assuming you have all the tools to make it). In doing so, you know that the box is made specifically for your sub and to your tastes...and you have the satisfaciton of making it yourself...to me putting more time into it makes the end result that much better. from the message board, the tweeters and woofers made by MB seem to be highly regarded. I haven't seen much said about their subs, though... and I don't have any experience with them, so I can't say much about 'em. ...as for the 8ohms, I also find it weird that it is wired that way. For home audio applications, the resistance is usually higher because power is not as much of an issue. In car audio applications, power is maximized because of the limited supply from the alternator |

Bronze Member Username: Themax96seUSA Post Number: 29 Registered: Jan-05 | I didnt think it was the greatest sub made, but it seems pretty good for the price. I've looked around even on eBay and couldnt really find it for cheaper, even used. So if it was any good, I'd thought I would take advantage of a chance to purchase something from crutchfield. |
