You can only get the T/S if you email maxxsonics. It is overall a very good sub. both sound and bass reproduction.

No thats not what i meant, you can only get the paremeters for the speaker right now if you email maxxsonics. (mikes@maxxsonics.com) im sure you can get it in stores if someone sells maxxsonics (hifonics,crunch,autotek,mbquart) in ontario but that is another question to ask them. And dont buy it from ebay, they are not authorized dealers and will not honour a warranty, the only authorized dealer online is onlinecarstereo.com
