This is a follow-up to my first review. The Alumapro is the last subwoofer I'll ever buy. As it's become fully broken-in, it has gotten deeper and faster. It easily absorbs a full 350 wrms amp output and still sounds sweet at low levels.

Strength:

Deep, tactile bass- very low frequency response. Nice natural sound on real instruments.

Weakness:

None

This woofer is a great value for $135 at my local retailer. It puts out very low bass with seemingly uniform response and can produce very high levels. Dynamics are not at all compressed--nothing is lost. The presention is natural sounding and instruments like string bass are reproduced with an incredible natural quality. Some very high-end audiophile home speakers (Hale's)use Alumapro woofers.

I am installing a single Alusonic woofer in a 1.33 cu ft sealed box with one Dynaudio 'Variovent' flow-resistance port in my Volvo wagon, driven by a bridged 300-W Phoenix XS2300 through Tara Labs Quantum II cables and Neutrik Speakon connectors. No stuffing, but I may put a a "Black Hole" pad in the back of the box to soak up any low-level midrange garbage.

I'll add a review soon with the measured response after it breaks in a bit and and I have a chance to equalize it.

Strength:

Very good all round sound. It can hit the highs and i love the low bass. They can hold more watts than they say.

Weakness:

The only weakness i have is that they drane the crap out of my battery. When i drive at night time and crank my subs. up my lights flash with the bass, its actually pretty sweet.

I have 2 12" Alumapro Alusonics in the back of my Z-71 regular cab. I am pushing them with a MARK ANTHONY 600 CL amp. (as very bada$$ amp i my add) and it thumbs real good. I use a Pioneer Cd player. My back glass on my truck flexes littery about 1/4 back and forth. I had to reseal my window because it started leaking when it rained LOL. Well anyways there top of the line subs. and are a very good price.
