Ok folks, this one is for fun.

Nothing other than a little scavenger hunt for those that have a few extra minutes of keyboard time on their hands.

The Rules:

1.) The price should be in US dollars for a single driver(speaker). If the list price is for a matched pair, half it.

2.) The price should be the the established selling price. (street value) MSRP does not count.

3.)Proof of price should be an accompanying link. If there isn't a link available directly for the product, information on how to view the price should be included.

4.) Canadian Distributers can't nominate their own product.


Let the games begin!!! Happy surfing. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I believe the most spendy sub I have ever seen was in Earl Zausmer's BMW. He used B&W 15" subs in his kick panel...ya kick panel! They where in the $15,000 range. That's like half a year pay for most people, hope they sounded nice!

They were 13" B&W drivers [img]smile.gif[/img] He used the speaker set from an 801 I believe. I have B&W 7" midbass from the 600-series line I will be using in my next install. B&W's are sweet drivers. I would love to have the 801 Nautilus as my home speakers. They have the coolest snail-looking enclosure.

I love their enclosures, they are unique and acoustically sound. That should sound great with your new ALC20! Just the thought of a 13" in the kick is mind boggling.
