15" is here!

Recommended Posts

Man, I'm impressed by the looks of this thing...I saw pictures and all, but in person is just that much better. Dig the look of the spoked basket b/c you can see a lot of the cone...just gives it a better look, IMO. Chromed motor = :slayer:

I'm surprised by the suspension stiffness, though...seems to me fairly soft compared to the old one? Maybe it'll make the cone move "faster"...help out transient response... :runlaugh:

It's just too bad that all I have is ~300w @ 4ohms right now...waiting on my Tantrum to arrive.

Must...go...install...

300 watts will surprise you. I actually thought it was rather stiff in comparison.

I think you're on to something with the cone moving "faster." :P

And it did surprise me...even in a sedan with 300W it gets quite loud! You may be right, or I may be on crack...either way... :lol2:

1500w is going to be sick...my alternator will hate me. :ph34r:

One word sums up this driver...wow.

Just picked it up today, haven't installed it yet. I don't imagine it will sound much different than it does now, just louder and the bass peaks will probably be more pronounced.

Sorry, I have no means of making a vid... :(

Good god, mo' powah = tons mo' betta

Can't believe how articulate this sub is...the increase in power really woke it up in that sense. Became a fair bit louder too...but it's the accuracy that impresses me.

I'll admit that when I had 300w on it I felt it should have been more "accurate" from what I remembered from the first gens (and these are supposed to be much better than those)...but apparently that problem is easy to solve...more power... :D

I've decided that the 15 is a tad too big for me to do an IB install behind the rear seat...will be moving to two 12s.... :D
