Default Here's a stoopid question...

...wouldn't this really spiffy looking sub be totally hidden (except the cone) once it was mounted in a box????

I don't know how good it is, but it sure looks cool!! :cool: :conehead

People often reverse mount subs... so the basket is visible and the cone fires into the box. Audiobahns are definately... hte peacock subs...

No such thing as a stoopid question, only stoopid answers........

Yo man, that thing is phat yo. You buy that and you be slammin' some mad **** bumps. :D:D:D

Now, in all honesty, I don't know a damn thing about that sub so I can't help you out quality/performance wise. Sorry. :cheers:

There is an old addage in the audio bizz... you get what you pay for.

For a little more, you get a nice JL or Kicker.

1200 watt power handling with a signal to noise ratio of 87 decibels at 1 watt/meter. My ears would bleed me to death before it would satisfy my accoustic green thumb! But it is a cool looking basket and magnet structure :D

I've heard Audiobahn is just for the look ... almost got the aluminum series but after reading many reviews, I went with other subs.

For best bang for the buck, looking for Diamond Audio (Mc Daddy or M5/M6) on Ebay ... it is about the same price as Audiobahn but sounds much better (for SQ and SPL) even JL stuff cannot compare IMO.
