Are they for real with this thing? Is this gonna be another Jackhammer? I never hear much about Cadence,although I remember a few years back people said their component set sold on their outlet store was pretty decent for the money and that their Daytona amps were pretty good. Other than that I never hear about anyone running any of their equipment. |

Why don't they show us the basket or the motor? Aggravating. Has anyone ever heard or seen a jackhammer?? Ever had any experience with them or heard from someone who did?? |

Check out the magnet weight, as well as a few other specs: 34" Cadence -- 5,000 rms ---- 500oz magnet --- total weight 3,630oz 18" DC Lvl 5 -- 2,000 rms --- 1,170oz magnet -- total weight 1,280oz 18" T3 TSNS -- 5,000 rms --- 1,200oz magnet -- total weight 1,440oz I'm sure it's a show piece, and great advertising at shows. I'd love to see someone do something with one for the wow factor, but for actual competition I'd be willing to bet you'd have better luck with 1 or 2 decent 18s. From the few people who have used this sub they say it seems to do better with 2500w actual power otherwise it starts heating up. |

Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2727 Registered: Apr-07 | It would be interesting to see one of these in a good enclosure. That wall is IB, flexing like hell, and not even sealed off. I'd like to actually see one in a 20-30ft ported enclosure that's well built. All you hear is mechanical noise from the thing, like the guys are talking over it. Nothing's really flexing other than the wall. |

That thing probably moves all of 1mm anyways. It needs that motorforce to move that much too. It's obviously a statement, and way over-priced. Useless, really. |
