Radio Shack sold a LOT of woofers like that back in the 80s

it's a woofer, not a subwoofer. I have a pair of those with some horns at my cabin up north. Freq response of 45-2200hz. has a 1.5" voice coil with short windings to keep unductance low for extended freq response. Suitable as a car sub?... not really. It will move air and thus produce sound...but totally wrong type of application

Made you sound more like a missinformed hic that is looking to shop based on brand name and pricing with no clue whatsoever as to what he's actually buying....if you wanted to know what you sounded like
