Guess I'll have to ask a judge.
I remembered reading somewhere about the " consumer grade " subs, so I did a lil search onsite...Check it out, what do you think?

http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/online/western-canada/231416-rules-questions-you-get-ready-regionals-2.html

How the heck do you post a clickable link...teach meeeeee

JD- I checked those out, sick numbers!!! the Sundown specs seems to say that they can have up to 2.25cubes, but they mention handling the big box size at lower power levels.
Not sure if 600 wrms is considered "low" to Sundown , as they're rated at 600wrms. But I do know Sundown should handle MUCH more but....??

So far the kicker L5's have my interest the most , less than $500 for 3 , should work well in my current box, gives me lotsa cone area.

The one thing I don't like is it is not reconeable , I kinda liked reconing. However the price of the whole L5 is the price of my last recone....lol
Throw-away subs I guess...

DS- Is the TFX one of Yuli creations?

Still interested in other possible options... I'll check out American Bass JB.

People used xfls during the whole season in street stock. The are a solid subs but the American xd series is louder on low power because the suspension isn't as stiff and the soft parts are lighter.

They changed it from competition grade to 2.5" coils.

The TFXs are Yuli's evil doing. If you can get the TFX's go with them, I ran 2, they're wicked.

The JL W6V1 15s are a nice sub with an 8-layer 2.5" voice coil.. they will easilly hang with many subs that use a 3 inch coil...

Not sure where you could find any though...

600 would be low then...lol
I was surprised when I found the Sundowns at woofersetc. for only 190.00 each.. I was excepting them to far outprice the kickers. Only about $40 difference per sub!!
guess they make the short list ..
Wonder if they have recones?

Fresh - Thanks for the confirmation. I may ask Yuli about them, though I'm not sure that with the work he puts in them, that he could make them in my price range....

Haunz- thanks for the input bro, I'm not a fan of JL..(probably cause I can't afford it...lol)

JWB- I did find an AB sub with a 2.5" VC.. the XD12 ... 450wrms... Wonder if they would take alot more like the sundowns apparently do??

So I have Kicker L5s, Sundown SA-12s and perhaps AB xd12s on the short list. Reads like a good list thanks guys!!

Need to check on the XD12 price, any approx. cost JWB?
