  1. Call IA and talk to Tricia. Tell her I told you to call and ask about any B stock available. It normally cones with full warranty.

  3. Same exact everything else. Thermal would increase due to no heat soak. But that hasn't been an issue. Considering savings on shipping cost I think I'll still be able to get it as cheap or cheaper than the competition's ferrite counterparts in the same class. I'll still offer the ferrite version. It's just a pain in the ass to load 120 pounds of subs with a 75 pound box in the trunk of my car.
  4. And there is a waiting list of about 40 people right now for when the layaway starts on the next run.
  5. I might give it a try. The next order coming will be Ethos and Enchore(1,000 watt Ethos). So this would be a possibility for next summer.
  6. Would there be any interest for a 30 pound Ethos that was around $450 as an option in addition to the regular 65 pound Ethos?

  8. I'm not releasing any other product until I can keep up with demand on current product.
  9. Not quite yet. Hoping in a week or so. I'll open sales on facebook. I only have 35 available so keep a look out.
  10. Which comes down the main advantage. It take more and more power to hit Xmax when your box gets smaller and smaller. So since you only need 70 percent power you can use a box roughly 70 percent smaller
  11. The "type of sound" from the Trident will be similar to the Ethos. The FS, vas, and Qts are similar. However it will handle power differently. Most sub's Xmax is rated at 70% bl. Which means that for example if a sub has 10 mm of windings in the magnetic gap once it move enough so that 7 mm of windings are in the gap this is the the rated Xmax or the point of which distortion is audible by the motor. (Off topic but important. The general rule is that at 70% BL distortion is audible. But there is what's called masking effect. This means that the louder your system is the less we can perceive distortion ) The trident was purposely designed with a higher Xmax per BL than the sups pension and frame can handle. This wasn't to keep the SQ better but to keep sensitivity up in return taking less power to play the sub. For example if the Ethos and Trident were in the same series or level with all other parameters being the same it would take nearly 30 percent less power to reach 32mm Xmax on the trident versus the Ethos.
  12. Yea. Well as you know it's the best driver on the market in its price range for daily listening.
  13. Nope I'm completely sold out as of about 2 months ago.
  14. You have my permission to post this for sale link on the DSS Facebook page if you like. I'm getting 4 or 5 people a day already wanting to pay for the next order arriving in March. I'm sure someone will scoop them up.
  15. unfortunately, I am completely out of ethos motors until March unless someone cancels a layaway. I do however have the Tridents coming along with this run of Ethos. The 15's are $533.95 and are about 2,800 watts rms.
  16. I had a customer dial back his order due to buying a different car. I have 4 available for sale. if interested go to the dss website and contact me for details.
  17. Just spoke with Nick. Looks like the motors will arrive close to thanksgiving. Better time frame as we get closer.
  18. Nope. I stay in the states. They do need to tighten up though. I have 100 speakers than need to ship to anxious customers. One good note though. I nearly have all soft parts ready to drop in once the motors arrive.
  19. Nope. I'm still getting teased by China.
  20. Regardless of the name it is the first transducer ever developed with three magnetic air gaps.
  21. I see something about trident amp tech and triton subwoofer? Yah i thought it was triton as well. My googlelyness isn't that great so I couldn't know.
