Billy Bronze Member Username: Golden_ear Post Number: 33 Registered: Mar-07	Posted on Saturday, March 31, 2007 - 13:09 GMT I am sure they can. They don't have six 9" bass drivers just for cosmetics u know.

Andre Money (---None of it) Gold Member Username: Arande2 Extreme SQ FTW Post Number: 2165 Registered: Dec-06	Posted on Saturday, March 31, 2007 - 13:18 GMT That's the surface area of a 22-inch woofer in case you didn't calculate that.
Billy Bronze Member Username: Golden_ear Post Number: 34 Registered: Mar-07	Posted on Saturday, March 31, 2007 - 13:28 GMT It's easier to control smaller drivers. There are 2000 Watt mono amplifiers in each subwoofer cabinets...

I guess I'm not humorous 333 1/3 watt a driver should mean (at the average sensitivity of a 9-inch woofer) a max output of: 120dB give or take

Andre Money (---None of it) Gold Member Username: Arande2 Extreme SQ FTW Post Number: 2182 Registered: Dec-06	Posted on Saturday, March 31, 2007 - 19:24 GMT Yeah that's true...^^^ For $2,000 could get you 6 10" drivers of that quality... and then $800 for the stereo amp that could power it with 2500w each channel...that's around $2500-3000 for each sub... and then similar quality in the mains may make a system cost (including crossovers etc.) of around $10k...but $250k? Outrageous, but fun.
