monsters!
 

so im sitting here all bored looking and different stuff and ive came across the audiobahn 34" and clarion 32" subs... anyone heard these? are they pretty crazy or just a joke?

Pretty much a joke... fun to look at but don't perform very well.

(all from what I've heard.. never used one myself) ;)

If you haven't found it already, look for the MTX 5' sub.

hmm cant seem to find it...

I think there was a monster sub at autoworx in Buffalo... a nice demo piece...

We had the Audiobaun sub at our shop in 2001 or 02 it was garbage you could cook noodles in it it looked like a wok. The thing was all show no go.

actually it was 6 feet..it was jokes.. but here is a pic for those of you who really care

audiobhan bashing......
 

i donno...i bought a '98 neon rt that had 2 awes12p subs in it,they looked flashy,so i wasent expecting tooooo much(also because ALL the bashing peeps seem to do) anyway,i wanted to see how much they could take before cooking....and was utterly supprised.really supprised.they took the load of a ultimate t3 1000d.....and only after 5-10 min. of playing(gains to min.)could u smell the coils gettin' hot n' bothered!!!!thats 1 amp PER SUB!!

they also sounded decent in a sealed box....yes i was sober at the time...lol...:) just my 2 cents on audiobhan's (best) offerings immortal/eternal line....

here is also another photo of the sub in another vehicle.
I wont even try to get into the whole story about it.
Safe to say various companies and people had their nose mixed up in this and tried branding it their own and so forth.

looks like a photo from the popular mechanics archive..........lol......

car audio haven in brampton has the bigass audiobahn one in the showroom

pic of the audiobahn sub, this was at Audio Magic in London
Attachment 23998

wanna sell them?

yeah Don... the sub ur talking about is the same one in the pic above... its Tims baby from New Wave... he was the Canadian Audiobahn distributor before Automobility came along and got the line.... its the same exact sub that Nick is talking about...they used to bring it to shows and the models would sit in it for pictures... now its all dried up and the glue has released from the basket... the cone and surround still looks pretty good... the spiders have a bit of sag from the weight of the cone ... I keep askin if I can glue it together again and build a hugebox for it...but still a no go right now :(

what is the biggest you can get now for a car
i have seen a 22-24 apx do not know if it is a 22 or 24
it would be fun to get one

mtx has the jack hammer i believe its 24"
if I recall American bass has or had a 24" too

jackhammers is 22", but thanx for commin out peter....lol....

and why a neon dude? @codtripwire

If you want a pick of the JackhHammeer i will got to my boys shop dreamsport they have it . The thing came with a engine hoist and ways 269 or 289 pounds look Badass.

Nick is set in his WAYS...
a sub WEIGHS 289pounds


thought u might want to know :)

I'd rather have an 18" XXX then a jag hammer.....

edit: IIRC the 6' sub posted earlier crumpled the truck it was in, and was banned from db drag before the vehicle could be repaired and entered.......

why do they need an engine hoist fr it?...its not that big

lol

but seriously

Ah I remember sitting in Richard Clarks bread van with that 61". lol was nice at 10 hz

I got an old vhs recording of it playing too.

nice u gonna bring the vid tomorrow don?

No, the wife has it on DVD now I think I will ask her.

nice sounds good

yeah, I remember the clarion, really nice big heavy paperweight. Had a vas of like 120 cubic feet, and an ultra low qes. basically a 15 with a 3 foot wide cone.

Anyone selling any I can buy and modify?

the apxx24 is nice

It's not an apxx is it though? I thought it was another line like "extinction event" or something...

no i didnt go out of my way for the autodestructaudiobhans....they came with the car/so i tortured them ....just to see what they where made of....and was actually suprised

Don i have the 24inch ELE sub if you are interested in playing with it , i may put them in a vehicle soon just for kicks. If you want i can send you a new one as you will be pretty impressed with it as it has a 4inch coil already =] pm me

Hm I get to review a 24"? I am up for it for sure. I will PM you the address. You do realize it will come back to you having been to the edge and back?

or possibly past the edge and blown lol

Don did you get the email

Ya I got the email, will get it to the right person now. I don't think I will be testing the 24" because its a bit much to invest right now with all my other projects.
