    Thanks for joining the forum just to sell some goods. That's what we are here for :rolleyes: . If you have such a good rating on e-bay I'd suggest you sell it there.

    Same here. You probably won't get any bites here.

    1) You're a new member, appearantly just selling your item.
    2) It's an Infinity sub.
    3) It's 15". How good can that sound?
    4) Not familiar with the item, but a built-in sub? Can't be good.

    I, too, would recommend trying E-bay instead.

    What you never heard of using a sub with a built in amp? Last I checked that would be pretty much standard fare for a high power sub setup. You may not agree with me trying to seel my obsolete items here and thats fine but to say a fifteen inch sub with dual radiators and a 1000 watt amp cant sound good is ridiculous. Look it up on google and read the reviews it had and you might change your tune. :)

    Hmm. For some reason I was assuming this was a car audio sub. Seeing that it has passive radiators, I'm assuming that it's actually for home use. That means it probably sounds better than I originally thought it did. However, I can't imagine anyone here would pay $750 for it.

    Then again, I'll hafta google it.

    Looks like it's worth it to me!

    http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-598C-489FEA6-39B14F0F-prod1

    Although that reviewer said they paid $509, it certainly is a beast of a sub!!!

    Single 15" active driver, dual 15" passive radiators, 1000 watts of plate power!
    Ludicrous gibs!

    Hey maybe nobody will want them and thats fine I can always sell them locally. THe price is a best possible scenario and certainly not fixed in stone. It may be the chane for someone to pick up some equipment they normally couldnt afford. Over the years I bought plenty of equipment myself this way. Fortunately for me I can afford to pick up what I want when I want it. I will say that the sub moves some serious air I just needed to get something smaller to fit into the built in I am making for the system.

    a buddy I work with owns one of these monsters. Louder than all hell but it's as responsive as a 15" should be. Not to mention, he got his mint off ebay over a year and a half ago for $650 shipped. I was impressed with the output, the sound quality is far from what I'd expect for a $1000 (retail) sub...

    Like I listed in my other post I'll drop the price of the sub to $600 shipped to Continental US if anyone from the forum wants the speaker. If not thats fine too I'll sell it locally through the Want Ad Press. If you cant give back sometimes what good is living.

    I'm sorry... I stand corrected. My buddy bought his over 5 years ago for $650 shipped. Good luck though.
