I'm thinking about picking one of these up this Spring. What have you guys heard about it...

I was reading that they were recommending 1 cube sealed, or if it had to be ported, 1.5 cubes max. Also nothing over 1000 being thrown to it.

Sounds like a perfect driver for me, just want to make sure that for 275 (which is a great price) that its gonna be just as good as the old one.

i am sure it will sound just as good if not better than the older ones. so go for it man. if they made the mag in 15, i'd be all over it like flies on sh!t.

The MAG is a very nice sub, I am not thrilled about the XBL^2. I couldn't stand the Adire products. Hopefully she specs right and the MAG continues being a great sub :-)

IDK maybe cause I'm biased but wasn't the 15" Mag their best seller?


If not it certainly is one of the best of the group. Why discontinue such a great sub?



Lol. Kevin. When I bought the Mag I kept saying to myself that I wished SI made an 18". How much more power does the Alpha need?

I think IMO, the 15 was the best seller by far out of the MAG.

As for Alpha, 1500 rms is awesome for an 18, but can take massive thermal power.

I would do about 30hz for the Mag. Again, should ask Nick what he suggests for the sub.

Just the fact no one on here has ever heard the sub, let alone know the t/s parameters. Nick would be your best bet, Nick.

Mags doing great so far. Haven't got around to adjusting everything just yet but will soon. Gonna leave it sealed but might port it this summer. We'll see what happens.

Pics and vids in a few days.
