yep I'm guessing thats it. But luckily only minor scratches. The blue foam on box no.2 was perfect but box no.1 was badly messed up. I'm imagining how rough it was handled. Btw the sub was shipped to a different country so I was expecting Scott to pack it extra tough though. I'll post more pics when I start doing the enclosure.

The built quality as expected. Good indeed. The sub only have some minor scrathes on the back plate but not visible unless you look very close. The sub weight is heavy. I was fooled with the look and actually when I tried to carry its heavy. Try imagine carry 2 of those. Both are Dual 2 sub. Have compared it with my bro brahma mk1 15" and the surround was much softer than the brahma. Even the spider was softer. Cosmetics looks perfect except for the excess glue on the spider and dustcap but thats normal. I havent tested it with a multimeter, probably tonight will do. But I am excited tyo built a house for it to live on. Will post pics later when I start doing my enclosure. Again thanks to Scott for the subs.

Pics as promised.

Went to lunch today and when I got back to the office there are 2 big boxes on the doorstep. I didnt realise anything until I saw the USPS logo on the boxes and I know that is may package. As I carried it onto my desk I realised that the sub nearly fell off. After opening it I saw the packaging was terrible. I'm not sure whether it was originally packed that way or the someone else opened it to have a look as there were signs that the box was already opened. Well I am just grateful that the sub make it without any cosmetics defect though. Anyway thanks Scott for the subs and I cant wait to built a home for it. I'll post pics tommorow. This sub will go into a 3.5 cu. ft. at 30 hz with 900w - 1000w on them. Anyone has any idea how much port area should it be?? thanks wynold
