Strength:

Lots of power handling ability, easy to set up, hits hard, in a bandpass box.

Weakness:

Cannot go super-low as my friend's 12" Boston but sounds just as good the rest of the time.

I paid $116 for this baby shipped from eBay. It was truly a steal and is worth much more than that. I have it hooked up to a Jensen 150 RMS amp (Jensen amps are stable). It runs well and I haven't had any problems with it. Would I reccommend this to someone? YES! It sounds really good even though it cannot go as low as a 12" (but music barely gets that low anyway). If you have the opportunity to buy this at a low price (<$200) I would definately go for it.

Those who should buy it: Those who seek loud pounding bass in an easy to use setup. They may be 8's but nobody will know until you show them.

Those who shouldn't buy it: Those who seek the VERY bottom bass frequencies that are barely reached buy most music. You should not buy this if you do not want bass taking over your car.

Strength:

Great Value, low cost, BAND-PASS BOXES RULE!!!!

Weakness:

almost too much bass at times, can get annoying

Although band-pass boxes take up more room, you get the best of both worlds, but it takes a lot of power. To remedy such, I have bridged two channels of my Phoenix Gold QX300.4 and have the gain and bass boost set all the way down, it's just right ;-) If you've got the space to spare in your trunk, go for it! If I want to, I can turn up the bass so that my side-view mirrors shake, and my rear-view loses it's position (I have to reset it). You've been warned.
