Dang, slowcar, way to go for the gold. That thing should be unreal! We'll definitely have to do our get together once our respective subs arrive -- I'm on the hook for dual mfw-15s. Hopefully, they should be here in about a month!

lets do it

thanks for the input.

i spoke to chad@epik and he said that the conquest will go up to 130Hz. should have one in my home in 2 weeks...cant wait :D:D

My man, thats what Im talking about. Definitely looking forward to pics and ya review. Congrats on that.

Does anyone have any thoughts how dual PB12/Plus 2s would compare against the conquest?

Just a guess, but I think you have and advantage from 25hz up...maybe not by much.

the sub is quite big...placement will be challange for a start

do you know anyone in your area with a conquest? bring your 2 subs over and do a shootout, most accurate way to compare...

Haha, I was about to say the subwoofer shootout created a monster but I think it was created way before that. That sub you're getting should get you more than the output you need really, it's probably overkill in most rooms but better that way than falling short. You're going to enjoy the added low frequencies, as demoed with the PCU. How did the ROTK:Extended play in your room?

Ron, it's Ilkka with double k's not with l's.

Slowcar...be sure to have to help available when you get that baby or you'll just be staring at the crate wondering how the F your going to get it out.

You certainly got that right! Perhaps this is an understatment.:p It takes big to go deep though. And you will be trolling the depths with aplomb.

Deadof_knight

A tip usually helps out as well. Youre talking 300 some odd lbs crated.

Not good, Ferrari is having some serious reliability problems. On the positive side the car seems faster than the McLaren's so if they sort it out he's still the favourite for WDC.

The crate is quite large and weighs 363lbs. Normal delivery is to your door or into your garage (since the crate won't fit in most doors). If you can get the driver to assist (totally up to him) by greasing the wheels, then you're ahead of the game. I recommend most folks have a friend or 2 around. The sub does slide easily on carpet or a throw rug (on hardwood floors). I'm one of their transportation vendors.

That Chad does build a nice crate don't he . You could double, triple or quadruple stack that sucker and you'd have to drop it off a roof to break it.

Slow, I hope you've got some friends coming over later .
