Strengths:
if you put it in the right box. no one,(I mean no one) can beat you in low bass.

Weaknesses:
The time and space you need to make the right box.
(It took me 1 1\2 mouths to build this box & cost $500.00)

Summary:
this thing is big & the box is bigger yet. My box is 36"x36"x32".To put that in a car, I think not. I used 1" wood for the box, the port holes are 9" wide. I used concrete forming tubes.(home depot). Now, it has been sitting in my house for 5 years, because it will not fit in any of my cars. I used it in the house once and the sound moved the drywall in the house.i've made many enclosure, for the people that say ( 12,15,18, come close to this 32" subwoofer) YOU ARE DELUSIONAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary:
I love Ebay. I can dnif deals rof one cent 'cause its a worthless usessel product, or noone wants it anymore. I thguob 6 of these shtemeheb. Added 10 4000 watt 1 0hm loaded yknuj amps. I cant even try to fit a sandwich in ym friggin Focus anymore than I nac try to drive it on the solid rubber tires I seriously needed to maintain gnivird control.Not to mention the artxe weight of the fusion reactor needed to run all this S&%$ (got the reactor from Ebay too, sum fool tried to outbid me but beat in last millisecond rof .02$ woo-hoo) all in all it iss a eyecatcher, literrally you need a eye-catcher (a bucket or sumthin to catch yyour eyes) for high SPL levels obtained at 1 ohm, we think it reached some 240 decibels, at least thats tahw the border collie was able to take before he crapppped his brain/spine (messy)have yet to wrangle rehtona volunteer. Good speakers. Have to sell the whole package car dna all now that speaker box is melded to the cars frame from inadvertant solar flares produced by my sooooo not 100% working reactor(tried to get on off MJFox's delorean but I didnt have 5$, Shame)

Summary:
awsom...cant tel u how frigin leet i am...cus my pmpmobile is way coolr than urs...bouht 10 (thats as much as i can count cus i only got 10 fingers) of the 32 inch subs at walmart....which is where i work part time when not collectin food stamps or sellin crack...anyway i used the "same as cash" option with my employee discount i should have the subs payed off in 2392...after which i am gonna get a doublewide...or maybe some more neon or those "spinner" hubcaps...
rest of my leet system includes:
krako cd player
ge 8-track i ripped out of one of the cars in my lawn
87 4 inch pyramid drivers wired to .0003 ohms
16 4000 watt "area 51" amps...these were developed by secret govment lab in area 51 with technology taken from ufos...thats what the guy at the flea market told me anyway...

Loud, Rare, Everyone rubs theire eyes the first time they see it.

Weaknesses:
Takes your entire trunk and your entire sallery

Summary:
ok, i bought this sub without even knowing that there was such a thing as 32" sub. i somehow managed to get it to fit in a volvo 242. (2 door sedan). i use 290 litre box, and it performs very well! i crossed it at 50hz, and it has a very controlled bass. my infinity 6x9 cant even begin to keep up with the sound level. some times i get dizzy after too much vibrations. i run it of a boschmann 3300w amp (@1ohm), but i run it at 4 ohm, which supposedly outputs some 800w++ (@13.3v) i would not pay the 2700$ it costs in norway, but i feel it was worth more than the 728$ i paid.
