Sean P I ran some audiobahns about 8 years ago. FLAME Q SERIES 12's on a camaro. Wish I would have known about other brands. Around here all you saw was kicker, JL and audiobahn.
No,i know what you mean. Its seems to be the same everywhere you go,just switch the names a bit. Like around here its still memphis,kicker,memphis,JL,audiobahn an memphis again. I tell people i have an 15'' Fi Q an they look at me like im retarded. lol
Here in my area I'd say the top brands are Alpine, Kicker, Rockford and JL. That's it, in no particular order. I knew a guy Morgan though who loved Audiobahn and thought they were the best thing ever. He had 2 10s in a sealed enclosure, in his Civic and not that they sounded horrible, but they did ok. I just don't like how they're made. I pulled them out a long time ago to help him check how they were wired and they felt so cheaply made. Just really low quality. He ran them on an old Fosgate amp I had sold him though. I think it was an 800.2 or something, ran it bridged at 4 ohm for him.
Mind if I tweak that article to reflect the truth?

AUDIOBAHN IS CRAP!
On October 1, 2010, Audiobahn will continue its tradition of providing disreputable, low performance, and cheap car stereo products.

Like years past, Audiobahn will continue to deliver a shabby line of products that give car audio enthusiasts and installers more options for wasteful power-sucking and hideous style. They have collaborated with industry insiders and have enhanced their products to suit the needs of their stockholders.
Moreover, celebrity endorsees and media partners in the automotive, sports, music, television, radio, movie, and interactive world will continue to represent Audiobahn with pride and passion because celebrity endorsees are always trustworthy.

They must be talking about Georgia, as far as 12 volt dominance goes. A lot of us black folks run that Audiobahn junk down here. But hey, I have said repeatedly that Georgia is one of the heavy flea market holders. To me , the only thing audiobahn leads the 12 volt industry in is voice coil and spider separation. They made ok amps, but even that was a crap shoot. I have seen a few a2300hct amps. Some would run hot, others kinda cool, but why would you even take that chance with your money? That is the reason installation shops go under sometimes. People buy this type of flea market junk, then go to you good installers out there and expect you to perform a miracle with this low grade equipment, clip the chit out of it, then blame the installers as if they did something wrong when that shoddily made equipment fails. Sorry i am just rambling because i have seen it SOOOO many times with Audiobahn.
