    lol, bastard! but that's a little excessive, it makes no sense. I'll leave you's alone now lol. This is more believable to me.

    * Dual Gap Technology uses a short voice coil and two magnetic gaps to create extremely high excursion with lower mass
    * Oversized ellipsoid surround and clamping system creates larger piston area
    * Heat sinking frame for better thermal performance and higher power handling
    * Dual Gap Motor Design
    * Surround Clamping Ring
    * Spider Clamping Ring with Integrated Speaker Terminals
    * Axial Edge Surround System
    * Field Replaceable Re-Cone Kit
    * Power Handling (MAX) : 4000 watts
    * Power Handling (RMS) : 2000 watts
    * Sensitivity: 84 dB 1w/1m
    * Mounting Depth : 8"

    MA is decent...that sub won't handle 2000 watts daily but it'll handle some decent power

    A shop around here used to sell those subs....until they closed because they sucked and no one ever bought anything.

    lol they were called "Stuntin' 101". Super gay. There were all these crappy cars riding around town with their "Stuntin' 101" sticker on their cars but all they had was a crappy deck. ****ed me the F off lol

    ok thanks lol, i've searched a bit and most people say it's good for spl but not so good SQ. Do you think that cerwin vega stroker will handle 1800-2000 watts daily?
