'Water-Cooled Subwoofers'???

Silver Member Username: JeromebakerPost Number: 127 Registered: Dec-05 | So my buddy is showing me his new 10's today, the dub1000's by audioburn. Tells me he paid $450 for the set (ha!) at audio express or some ripoff chain store, along with some badass 2 channel amp that was stable to 1/2 ohm (also by audioburn, I can't remember the name but it was the best quality amp of theirs I've seen yet.) Then he tells me that the subs are 'water-cooled'. I've never heard of a water-cooled sub before, little cheap sh*ts like duals with neon liquid to look neat, sure, but never outright weater-cooled. Tells me that the sales guy told him that there is some connection for these subs to be literally cooled by water. I told him the guy was full of Sh*t and that he paid way too much for the subs. But I'm always open to the possibility of being wrong. Anyone know of a water-cooled sub? |

Missouri Post Number: 2432 Registered: Dec-06 | I think in some professional applications they actually use fans or blowers on the woofers or in the boxes (it's a large venue, who's going to hear it?) to keep cool air circulating in the box or actually through the woofer. I don't know how effective it really is though. |

Bronze Member Username: ShorterthanrichPost Number: 48 Registered: Apr-06 | I know bazooka makes subs that get hooked up to a "chill kit." I'm not sure if its water or not though. http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Bazooka-BW1224-Pair-12-In-Subs-750W-Subwoofers-NR_W0QQit emZ110126895990QQihZ001QQcategoryZ18803QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

Silver Member Username: LowdoseCahokia, IL. USA Post Number: 163 Registered: Apr-05 | So are 90% of the post on these forums so whats your point other then being a D***head? |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 2700 Registered: Jul-06 | "So are 90% of the post on these forums so whats your point other then being a D***head?" Actually, the purpose/point of my post was to inform the original thread maker that there IS a water cooled sub. |

Silver Member Username: JeromebakerPost Number: 128 Registered: Dec-05 | Holy sh*t, there are water cooled subs. Thanks for the info rob, I actually googled 'water-cooled subs' and got nothing. I was wrong. But I was half right, his audioburns aren't water-cooled. That chill kit is a great idea if it does what it says. I wonder if you could use it for non-bazooka brand stuff... |

Bronze Member Username: ShorterthanrichPost Number: 49 Registered: Apr-06 | I get no credit  Rob did give a lot more info than I did, that's for sure :P Heyo, lets all relax a little. Theres about an equal amount of effort to google search for something and to post on these forums. He chose the forums. Its all good. |
