Keep it up dumb fuck. You can grow up and quit being a bitch or we can remove the wart. And since you're not intelligent enough to figure it out, YOU are the wart.

Pioneer makes good radio's 4) Every thread should start with a detailed background including what vehicle, equipment, and goals you have. The more details the better.

Thanks for responding, I appreciate your professionalism.

I love the look of the SSA subwoofers but I wonder.... Why are they priced the way they are? I don't doubt the pricing but I want to know what it is about them that makes them worth it? Please try to be specific/technical in your answer. Thanks!

A 39-year-old man is recovering in China after intensive surgery to remove a live eel that chewed its way through his digestive tract after he inserted the creature into his anus. The man checked into to a hospital in China's southeastern Guangdong province after reportedly getting the 20-inch eel stuck inside him following his attempts to recreate something he watched in a porno film. The man rushed himself to the hospital after the stunt went wrong, allegedly telling medics, "Please, please help me. The eel is moving through my body." The eel chewed its way through the man's colon, perforated his large intestine and became stuck in the body cavity. The medical team that treated the man reportedly said the eel, which weighed about one pound, was "simply trying to find its way out." The medical team said the eel was "still alive when we got it out but it died soon afterwards, which was probably a mercy," according to The Sun. "This was a particularly idiotic stunt and could have caused him a serious injury. Eels have small but very sharp teeth," they added. The man had to endure all-night surgery to get the eel out of him and close the wounds. Police reportedly will interview him over alleged animal cruelty. Oddly, this is not the first time a stunt like this had made the news. In 2012 a New Zealand man had to have an eel removed from his bottom, though how or why it was there was never disclosed. In 2010 a man in China died from internal bleeding after his friends put an eel in his rectum as a joke after a night of heavy drinking.

why the testing in a hemi-anechoic room? For testing to make sure it is completely silent, no button clicks or movement noise

Woohoo!

Obama is for everyone. He is doing stuff to help the middle class more , but if you really think about it its an advantage on the upper class as well because the middle class will spend more, making more profit for the upper..Yes , we our economy has been bad but it takes more than 8 years to better the United States after Bush ruined it. He does say what he's going to do & has been sticking to it this whole presidential election. I do also think Obama can atleast relate to the common man and understand the hardships the average American must overcome rather than living the cushioned life. This year is almost a lose/lose in many areas, but Obama is the righteous choice for this government.

Many of the SSA subwoofer look totally bad ass, is the basket some kind of special design that is optimal for the cooling needed to produce SQ bass for hours on end? It looks like the cone is out farther than most subs, does this result in a tighter response? I like the evil too but if someone wanted direct leads, would this be possible in the factory? So many of the con series look to be efficient but I suppose it all depends on your size limits. What is the cone made of anyway? I like aluminum cones but I have never heard carbon fiber. Oh and sorry Alton, I just appreciate your posts as they are always helpful.

That's an awesome way to blow a new subwoofer. Sundown even says do not play your new sub at rated power until the break in.

Dude, stop being a moron.Using military boards and being .5ohm stable was a marketing decision. Unrelated to final price. Neo magnets add NO VALUE to a subwoofer. Sure some cost, but it doesn't make anything worth anything. If you want education on why it is a great woofer, fine, but relating it to what they set as their selling price is pucking moronic. annnnddddd here is a noob picking on my examples after i said they were just examples and try not to argue them, you sir are an offtopic mess. go back to spamming ihop. frickin rich guys put your mobile devices down, not everyone on this forum is like you.

I'll quote your entire OP, pointing out the issues that gave rise to the responses in this thread: See where the problem is now? You asked about pricing, then followed that up by talking about pricing and asking what makes them worth it. Apparently you don't even understand your own questions, or aren't articulate enough to actually ask what you want to ask. We were answering exactly what you asked. You asked about why they are priced were they are, we told you why. Produced in small quantities in the USA is a big factor in their cost. Next time ask the question you actually want answered. I understand, Thank you.

I guess I will repeat my OP question since it has obviously been lost in you guys saying I am asking about business and production costs...... I want to know what it is about them (the SSA woofer) that makes them worth it? For example: Crescendo is worth it because they use military boards and are .5ohm stable daily Fi BTL is worth it because they used neo magnets and try not to argue my examples, as they are just examples you drama queens You guys would rather post pointless shit then wait for someone who knows the real answer to post I refuse to accept the answers of business and production costs in the USA as answers, as I am looking for why the SPEAKER is considered higher end So excuse me for never heard SSA before and wanting more education on what I am potentially going to buy.

From the 15" Xcon..... monstrously bumped back plate - is this unique to SSA woofers only? What exactly is this? 3" round, 2.6" long, 4 layer Aluminum voice coil - Is the 4layer of coil what makes the SQ apsect? Is an aluminum voice coil better than copper for SQ? What is a shorting ring? Are NOMEX spiders something the other guys don't have? Is the SSA woofer something designed from the ground up without using/paying royalties for patented designs? These are thing that could be said that could give a more technical answer on why SSA is the top dog in its class.

The only one being dramatic is you. Your questions were answered, however, not to your liking. If you want specifics, then state that. Most people want a simple answer which was provided. I won't even bother with your nonsense comment. Are you blind? The OP says PLEASE TRY TO BE SPECIFIC/TECHNICAL IN YOUR ANSWER If I wanted a simple answer I would not have typed, PLEASE TRY TO BE SPECIFIC/TECHNICAL IN YOUR ANSWER And the dramatic people are those defending SSA when noone is attacking SSA, and why are you guys so defensive anyways, is there something not being said? 90% of the answers I got were from people who do not know what they are talking about like yourself tire, saying because it is made in USA. Real good input and helpful to boot..... So don't get butthurt and go banning me or something. There is what, 1 new thread here a week, and I now see why.

Screw yourself you started it man, i dont understand why but you started marking shit neg what?? lol

Screw yourself

Thanks Alton, that helps me understand somewhat. There are many other brands I could ask this same question. I understand the DDZ is expensive as hell because of the neo magnets. It is good to know what you are buying, so with any product, research should be done on why it is worth the amount it is, no matter the cost. My intentions are purely educational. You guys are so dramatic. I was hoping for a machinist point of view to say the materials are this and we do this which takes an extra week. Instead theres two pages of nonsense, yet I made this thread this morning so the big wigs haven't had a chance to put in yet.

So your answer is USA labor and quality. Yea that is exactly what the OP asks for.... How about what specifically with the quality? Is the basket machined a certain way with special coatings? Is the surround made of some high quality super rubber that most subs do not use? Is it because of the way the voice coil is put together? does that take more time? Those would be better questions to answer instead of "because things cost more in the USA". And if you guys think Mark and AAron should answer this, then why are you posting? Nobody is asking about the business, I am asking about the materials in the SSA woofer that makes it worth the price.

WOW.
