Power Acoustik

Recommended Posts

A gotta call from a friend of mine this morning. He just bought this...

http://www.poweracoustik.com/pa2006/produc...IO_wof_mofo.htm

He was asking all kinds of questions about it and I told him that I didn't know much about power acoustik's stuff. So here I am again. Does anyone have any experience with this sub? Loud? sound quality? will it run at rated power? I know this is kind of general without box specs but I haven't measured his truck yet so I do not have them. Just in general has anyone ever heard these things because I have pretty much stayed away from power acoustik.

I've had the misfortune of hearing one once...

Loud? Not really.

SQ? Definitely not.

Rated power? Perhaps.

He is very amatuer in all of this. Not saying that I am an expert but he still believes that a big cone + high watts= loud.

So these things really sound that bad, huh? If he can return it what would be a good 15 for around $200. All he cares about is loud, loud, and more loud. Also he has about 1500 watts at 1 ohm to push to it.

He is pretty set on his budget. Also the box is gonna be about 3.4 to 3.5 cubes before port displacement.
