well, i've had a bad day, sitting in my room, listening to some music from my comp, ive got my comp hooked up to my stereo so i got surround sound and subs and whatnot...amamzing with video games...and then all of a sudden, POP! my speakers blew, i will say they did take there share of abuse as well as give a long time of listening, I order some 6x9s and a pair of 6.5s to put on the floor, the surrounds are great, the new woofers i'm installing tomorrow, i bought two 8" DVC subs at walmart for 40 bucks, i was pleased...not something i'd put in my car but for my room they'll work perfectly...
Yea i had one for a while, desided to get a 2nd one, for 20 bucks it can put a desent amount of thump into your room, with a bigger box it might sound a little louder, i've got them in a dual 8" box with about 1 ft per sub, not to shabby
yea I bought one to play around with. I put it in a ported box tuned to like 37 hz I think. It actually sounded fairly good. I got bored one day and decided to see how much power it could take before it blew. It took quite a bit before it litteraly just blew up. lol! the cone ripped away from the surround and then the voice coil just melted. for 420 that lil sub could take one hell of a beating.
you know what... i've never thought about it... but what happens when you hook car audio stuff up in your house... er, does it sound ok? i would imagine you'd have to mount speakers/subs, instead of just sitting them on the ground... but seriously, can you play car audio equipment not in a car?
if you have the power to run them they sound pretty desent, its actually a little cheaper then buying speakers for "home" audio, not to mention building boxes is pretty fun...just one more project i can busy myself with between jobs and skateboarding
