those were the very first gen of the XTR subs, after Orion went from the SX series to the XTR series.. yeah new designs.. not surprised they had a few issues right at first. Those things came out around 1992.

I had a couple XTR 8's reds, not bad subs. I had some problems with the surrounds coming apart. But they were 8's and I abused them a lot.

I think those were 'suppose' to have a lifetime warranty too.

great sub.. nothing impressive for excursion, but it'll get loud, and sound good.. and it's not overly deep for mounting so it'll fit easily.
good sub for that cheap.
should last you for years.

Is it sad that I'm using a Lightnight audio amp on it? :unwell028

But I wanted to get a sub in my wife's car and she wouldn't let me spend very much. I got both for around $50 on ebay. I really need to build a better box.

Joe, you don't have any specs on this thing do you?

You're forgiven.

P.s, I thank kiki knows about these, think he had some 15's or something?

Here is an auction for the exact same sub that I installed in my wife's car last year. I bought it a few years ago on eBay for like $30 new and it was sitting around for awhile.

Do you guys know if this sub is any good? I have been unable to find any T/S specs on it so I had to build the box by guessing, and it kind of sounds like crap to be honest.
