March 24, 200421 yr Author Now for the bad news.We received the shipment of 12" Magnum's. All of them but one failed our quality control testing. The one that passed will be shipped out tomorrow or thursday.The Magnum 12's have a mechanical problem. All of the defective speakers "tick" when pushed past a certain point of cone movement (about 1/2 inch). We are currently in contact with the manufacturer trying to figure out what the problem is.Of course, this will delay their release again. We physically have the speakers, but we are not sending them out in this condition.More will be posted. :thud:
March 24, 200421 yr Aww man.. that really, really sucks. Hope you get the problem figured out and fixed soon.. although I have plenty of time to wait, because I don't even have an amp, or the money for one. I'm sure it'll be worth the wait though.-djv

March 25, 200421 yr any word on the problem of the subs nick and what kind of extra delay? Seriously, give him a break, it hasn't even been 48 hours since he posted this! LOL...I'm sure everyone know what's going on with them when Nick finds out.
March 26, 200421 yr It's you. When the Mags forst came out, every picture I saw it was as if they had a pink tint to the surround. The surround has a graphite look to it and the reflection in pictures can give off a sense of colors not part of the surround.

CANT BE! but then it showed up and was pure beauty
March 27, 200421 yr Just got my 15D2 today and I am totaly blown away by the build and looks of this speaker. Even after drooling over the pics I am floored now that is on my table. Also the first time I am going to be running a 15, always ran 12s, and damn this thing is huge.
March 27, 200421 yr just finished final caulking and will add L braces tomorow then drop this bad boy in and get it broke in.

March 27, 200421 yr will post some pics when I get home from work tonight. I got it installed and breaking it in with my PPI PC 2150 before I throw my PG Tantrum 1200.1 on it.And WOW!! This Mag is blowing me away already. Can't wait to see what happens when I put my PG on it. This one 15 puts my 3 12w3s to shame.
March 27, 200421 yr And WOW!! This Mag is blowing me away already. Can't wait to see what happens when I put my PG on it. This one 15 puts my 3 12w3s to shame. Is that as far as SQ or SPL? I will be running mine in an SQ application, I hope it can sound as good as the 12'' like stated on the SI page. Is yours ported or sealed and in how many cubes?
