Hey
some guy is selling me 2 type R 12" subs, with a box for $250. Really cheap, and tempting to buy, but is there anything that could be wrong?

He said everything is good, and only used for 4 months.

Should i go for the deal, or passs?

Is there anything i can check before i buy it, to see if it is proper?

 

yeea thats the thing, i dont have anything to test it.

but he told me to do the same thing before i buy it, until i told him i dont have anyting, and he said he doesnt too..but its working so dont worry

 

for a guy that is selling and doesnt have an amp is prob ripping you off i would pass unless you can borrow an amp or a frds car that is setup for it

 

any amp could test

 

he said hes selling his system cuz he needs the money. So he already sold his amp. He only has the subs and the box.

 

Thats a tough situation. You could pull each sub and check for broken or burned tinsel leads, look for damage to the suspension and check for any abnormal noise when you move the cones. These are just visual inspections though. Unfortunately if a deal is too good to be true, it usually is.

Have you checked the classifieds on this site?? There are tons of bargains to be had.

 

might also try a multimeter and check if the coils stand up to the ohm's that theyre supposed to be either the dual 2 or dual 4
