    That's a bucking magnet on the top. How long is the vent?

    Not sure on the vent, I did this at around 1am last night and put it back together right after I took the pictures. I was bored. :)

    I thought that the 505's magnet would be larger than that.

    It's not that bad, looks par for the course for most subs in its class. Looks to be a 30-40 oz mag, thats decent. What do you think the drivers in your 1200 looked like? Not everyone can afford / or wants a bottom-feeder, ya know?

    PT, hit it with a multimeter, see what it reads. Get your tape measure, feed it in the port and 'grab' the end, so Doc can get his measurements. You could change the fill a little, doesn't appear to be much, and looks like your standard Dacron job.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    I would like to pull them and see. I heard they were the current MOMO drivers at the time. Since the new owner has'nt wanted me to send the unit to him yet - I may pull one just for fun....
    Anyway Russ not mine anymore - have the PB2+ and those SVS Plus drivers look amazing. I guess I just see those cheap
    speaker connecters and am use to seeing hi end car drivers.
