This thing has been out for a while, I just haven't had a chance to snap any pics of it...There are two in the pics, one is boxed up under the other..

10,000 watts
100 lbs
$1200 each
I think retail is around 1600 each

why would you want or need that much power and weight in a car? Im sorry, but thats just asinine.

woobiee · 12-28-2003, 03:03 PM

haha thats huge! personally, i dont think that should be under mobile audio but should be home audio hahah

How do you like that Diamond sub? I have a CM3 10 in my 325i and I love it! I have it in a "hooker" vented box...I have been trying to push alot of Diamond around here, I think it is starting to catch on...

BMWL2 · 12-28-2003, 10:38 PM

I love it!! I have it in a small sealed box and it still throws out some serious lows. I have been meaning to build a Diamond spec box for it but havent had the time.

I am powering it with a Power Acoustik 1100w digital class d amp and it takes that power like it was nothing.

Yeah the hooker box I am using is built off the diamond specs, it surprises alot of people! I have a measly 300 watts on it and I know it can handle double that, I just havent upped my amp yet..

BMWL2, how well does that PA amp work? Ive heard they arent very good from some people and they are from others. Whats yours been like?

lwebb12 · 12-29-2003, 10:38 PM

haha 2 solo x's must be insane

sp0rky · 12-31-2003, 07:22 PM

those speakers are 100lbs each, and with dbl 3/4" mdf, thats easily almost the weight of two of those speakers, thats crazy. you might have to do some engine mods to keep the car running well. lol

what kind of amp are you using for those? if i remember right those are made for sound off competition, so they'll be loud but probably not have too much SQ. I've been curious as to how they sound though, keep me updated.

Did you build that box yourself? how much internal volume per sub is there and how much port area? shits gonna be loud...
