My 12" H2 hits harder than that sub...thats like the Audiobahn 34" woofer, total waste of money and you're a douche if you actually buy one htinking you have the best sub just cos the size of it are the size of common rims today.

well that proves it....the jackhammer is an sq sub

theres always been big arguements over this, especially at ROE.. now come on guys.. MTV's Pimp My Ride didnt do the sub justice.. plus it was a crappy in car mic.. none the less.. it was sealed, with who knows how much Real power.. anyway.. i used to think the same thing.. the sub is crap..etc.. but who has really ever heard one in a REAL setup? with correct power..etc..? give it a thought..

Amen...
With $7K I could buy enough woofers/amps/batts to toast that thing @ full output...
Also Jared, the box wasnt sealed. They did an infinity baffle. Power, well I dont remember what power they had but Im positive it wasnt enough.

oh, well i didnt pay that much attention, but none the less yeah its expensive, but what happend to the "we havent heard it, or tested it, so we cant comment" attitude that was here?, also yeah with that much money, alot of people could blow it away, but im just getting at, it may actually be decent, if only someone could afford it and afford the power to throw to it and all that.

I'll third this since its been seconded already (is seconded a word? lol) I'd rather hook up 3 or 4 of the new RE XXX's, get a few IA, Audision, Mmats, Us Amps or whatnot amps, fatmat the entire car, get a couple kinetik batteries with an alumapro 50 farad cap (jsut for the hell of it) get an ohio alt, get a couple pairs of components using some scan speak tweeters, and then take myself, my girl, and a couple buddies out for dinner and still have some spare change. maybe i'd throw in an extra grand and get some ID CG2 horns...now thats a better use in car audio terms for that kinda money. :happy055:

heh. after you spend 4 grand on the XXX's, nearly 1 grand on eletrical upgrades and deadener, maybe more... batteries and amps, you're now in the hole.
I'm with justin. i'd put 8 grand down on a new truck.
