Post Number: 10462 Registered: Jul-05 | http://www.criticalmassaudio.com/subwoofers/UL12.html been looking @ these & finding hard to believe how small the magnet size is & how lightweight overall they are - but i guess if its the latest technology & those new small neodynium powerfull magnets anything is possible - right !? ....... |

Bronze Member Username: Nickb4247Post Number: 59 Registered: Dec-06 | Its a rather efficient driver at 96.7db with the coils in parallel. |
Gold Member Username: Mikechec9Post Number: 2521 Registered: May-05 | I personally doubt that sub. CM has been advertising HUGE in CA&E for quite some time. NO raw transducer should cost more than 400.00 imo...much less 2gs. And with that neodymium magnet, I find it incredibly difficult to believe the reported/suggested rms. As for their electrostats, they already make them. Not certain if they were promos or not, but i've seen a CA install with them. |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86FTW Post Number: 9870 Registered: Aug-05 | i am also skeptical about this sub. i am just not seeing it being a superwoofer. and all of the celebrity endorsements can justify the cost to them apparently. |

Gold Member Username: B101DD, RE, FI, TREO, KICKERUSA Post Number: 4130 Registered: Sep-05 | the neo magnets, are prob the main reason for the cost of the sub... it uses the newest neodymium motor materials! it also seems to have a good cooling system also. I really wouldn't doubt this sub, but just give me a regular dd, apxx, or treo... Ive messed with some neo motor components, with a mag that was prob the size of a quarter, and those components got just as loud as regular sets... but was doubled the price... and this was a old neodymium technology... (2k3) so they are prob alot stronger in 2k7 now.. |
