If I had a sub and a cone that could hold up to 10 inches of travel without destroying itself, maybe.

I want to custom order one. Hell, their test driver hit reference levels at 20 hz FREE AIR! :eek:

Yeah, and at $4500 assembled cost, that should wind up being a pretty reasonably priced system... :p:

Lessee... Probably need at least 1 6kW JBL Crown amp each sub... several feet of 4/0 cable from the multiple alternators and batteries to the power distribution block, custom made of course since there's no distro block that accepts 4/0, lots of 1/0 to each of the amps, don't forget grounds... 4 or 8 gauge speaker wire... Enough yellow tops to keep Optima in business this month, probably 1 alternator per amp at least, 250 amp should do.

Then you have to figure out where YOU are going to sit, hood, winshield, or roof? :D

Wulf,
Have you seen and heard one of these?
This monster has me so curious. I have two Crown K2s in my home set-up for sub power. By wiring one amp to two coils in series, that woud give me 4800 watts going to one sub :confused: :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil :reddevil

With that much power you should be able to drive pretty much anything...you will be able to special order the new Adire sub pretty soon.
