soundstream xxx 15 questions

[hondakilla98 29]

I'm working on trading for a soundstream xxx 15. It still has the tarantula on the dust cap, so I'm assuming it hasn't been reconed. Were there any different versions? Are they all made by TC. Anything I need to look at besides measuring the coils, checking the color of the coil, and checking for any mechanical noise?

Are you picking it up locally? It would be nice if you could hear before you buy it

It's a bare driver, no box. I'm trading some sa10's and ported box for it. I'll hook it up and at least try it free air.

We have this sub in my country. It is veeery expensive here !

I listened to it in several boxes, some designed by Ram-Designs too. I've never liked it. It can move a lot of air, it can do big numbers, but I never found it musical.

 

A friend of mine had 2 of them, each in a 5 or 6 ft3 box, at 35 Hz.. When he switched  to 4 Fi BTL N2, his first reaction was : "wow, I can play music, now!!!".

 

I guess you know how to run them.

Good luck.
