Very poor brand.

The design of the subwoofer basket is poor, and usually found in cheaper subwoofers.

The speakers do not look very impressive either.

I would say try before you buy, but this line of audio looks like it should be avoided.

nothin wrong with a stamped basket.

www.ascendantaudio.com
www.tcsounds.com

but agreed... if you are looking for performance, go with something a little more definite. Numbers from companies like these mean poo... edit, didnt mean the linked companies, btw :). Ascendant, on that note, is very solid and I'd run em, heck I MIGHT run em... tcsounds I dont have the same confiedence in after a line of failures due to bad manufacturing.

actually, maybe you can help with my plan...

Alright you know that locking little plastic divider for your spare tire...

Well i plan on replicating that only with Clear Plexi-glass...

Having the Sub mount to that, then building a Plexi-glass box into the spare tire area...

Next to the box on either side, but under that Divider I want to mount my AMPs then of course LEDs that turn on and off to the sound of the BASS lighting up the whole area...

Think you can help?

I wouldnt do the entire thing in plexi, but a plexi panel over the woofer and amps is definitely achievable, and shippable... and practical.

Check out the site in my sig and contact me through there, or shoot me an email through the boards.
