not a good price or no specs?

no specs. Cost on the sub is much less, but it is a good price shipped.

hmmm now i need to decide..., the kar for $125 shipped, or the Foose for $145 shipped...

Well what kind of amp do you have? Bc the KAR comes in either single or dual 4 ohm (according to their site) and the Foose comes in only a dual VC. So if you already have an amp...base your decision on that.

If you dont have an amp...then it doesnt really matter. The foose only handles 50 more watts. Probably wont hear much of a difference between the 2.

i have a jbl gto 75.4II, 284X2 @ 4 ohm when bridged

Well in that case i would have to recommend the KAR series with a single 4 ohm v.c. This way you get the most out of your amp. Otherwise, you will be running a dual v.c. sub at either 2 ohms and overpowering, or at 8 ohms and not being efficient at all.

wouldnt 1 2 ohm dual vc sub be a 4 ohm load wired in a series?

Yes it would.

Sorry didnt see the foose one came in dual 2.

Well, then i guess its up to you. Do you want to spend the extra 20 bux to get an extra 50 watts of power handling?

Personally i'd save the 20 bux and get the KAR...but im not you

yes, the FD subs come in dual 2 and 4.

The Foose subs are nice looking. I have them :

Dunno how they sound, haven't powered them yet because honestly, my Rainbows are enough lol.
