I just got a AudioBahn system, rockford amp, and the box with labor and tax for 525$ US do you guys think i was ripped?

 

Does it sound good? If it sounds good, I'd say it was a decent deal. That's all that matters really. $525 is pretty cheap for a complete system.

 

yeah it slaps hard, and came with a 1 year warranty, so if i blow a sub, i get a free one

Bump, with pix

 

those boxes put too much stress on the subs and you most likely will blow one sooner or later if you play hard hitting songs loud.. trust me ive done it..

 

i had a box very similar to that and it was the biggest pain in the ass to remove the subs. its looks really good tho.

 

well 4th order bandpass boxes are hard to tune but since it is a loaded box audiobahn might have got it right on the money... then again its audiobahn so i should assume its crappy like the rest of their equiptment

depending on the amp it might have been worth it... bandpass will usually be quite loud and boomy so im assuming your happy.... just run them hard and try to blow the subs before audiobahn goes bankrupt

 

lol not a fan of audiobahn, huh?

 

Well I will back up Emperorjj1 because I had an audiobahn awc12t 12" sub and it blew within a month of me having it in my custom box... so i mean they dont have goo dquality.. I would go with Diamond ALWAYS

 

good to know, i got a 1 year warranty and in writing, if the sub blows, i get a new one

 

i know dude but im just tellin you what has happened with my sub...

 

My audiobahn eternals haven't given me much grief, except they weigh 35lbs a piece, but my kenwood amp sucks *****. i can't wait to get a new one so i can take this amp out back and shoot it.

 

I have the rockford punch 600 watt amp, im pretty sure, i had the audio dealer install it for me, but it sounds great,

 

wow your pushing the minimum amoount of power for those subs my friend

okay just to give you an idea of what your power should be ill give you an example of my set up... its alittle different but still..


Rockford Frosgate T80002 Competiton Amp- Not sure on the power specs but this thing is a tank.. its 900 retail and i got it for 300
(2) Diamond D3 Subs-
Power Handling NOM/MAX:400/800 Watts
Sensitivity (2.83V/1m):86 dB SPL
Freq. Response: 25-250 Hz

Monster Cap

 

I like Audiobahn, but not a fan of prefab bandpass boxes. even from the manufacturer. they need to be very precise. even if it sounds good, it could be damaging your speakers without you knowing it. I've been torn between self-made bandpass, ported/vented and sealed. i change my mind about 3 times a year. FOR NOW, i'm running four Infinity 12" subs in their own sealed boxes. good luck, though. hope everything goes well for ya. keep us updated.
