Got my dream sub. (pics)

[Beat_Dominator 2]

Well I had a chance to get a sub I have long dreamed of buying at a price I couldn't refuse. It still made my bank account cry for mercy but as some of you know I'll do almost anything for audio

Without further ado, her is my brand-shiny-new Aura NS15

Here it is with the IdMax.... kinda makes it look dainty

Top view.... note different approaches to the same 24-25mm of xmax.

Side showing cooling solution.

This thing has a 4" voicecoil... and I guess that means it needs a 3.5" pole vent?

Last we have the model sticker and one of the binding posts.... interesting design.

Now I need to choose; car or HT?!

choices, choices, choices.

That thing is a beast!

[Beat_Dominator 2]

Yeah, way heavier than I thought. 50lb shipping weight.

Aura is not concerned about sheer output. You also have to think, this driver was designed many years ago. How many pro-sound drivers do you see with huge motor structures and little linear displacement?? In fact, the motor structure is not large at all, rather they incorporate the design into the entire basket.

and your back to your days of being an ASS.

linear displacement isnt everything, whoopty flip. I know 0 to nothing about this driver. Just looked at a few short specs and made a simple statement.

Other than the dust cap its sweet

neo mags in that thing ?

[bigger_george 2]

I just found that sub the other night at madisound. What a beast! But so is the price

Ive only seen the white versions

[JimJ 11]

Why everything gotta be about color?

I'd never seen it in white, only the black versions...and yes, it's an awesome driver. The 18" version looks like a UFO.

And nG...I agree...derka durrrr

Well keep the ignorant assumptions to yourself. Especially when you just admitted that you know nothing about it.

So, next time... just

I just can't help but love the industrial design of that sub. Beautiful.

Of all the replies I've had yours is by FAR the most offensive!

The dustcap looks more uniform in person than it does in photos
