2000 Flat piston
Strength:
These subs can stay linear for a lot longer of a time that any thing else I've heard. I wrote a review on the alum10's earlier, I've since blew 2 of them(my fault). I listen to cd's with "speaker damage" warning lables on them as loud as I can. Where the alum subs fail, the pro flats prevail.
Weakness:
Not as clean as the alum10's-12's. But they do play louder and lower for a longer time. Voice coil heats up real fast. You have to massage these subs to play loud the first time. DON'T CRANK IT AS SOON AS YOU TURN ON YOU CAR. Paid 250 ea, I think it was worth it but Im not positive, at least until I can compare the alum's and the pro's side by side. But i think they're somewhat better than Precision flat piston's. Similar Products Used: None used, but heard Precision flat pistons in a shop. Audiobahns are very comperable, if not better. |

Driver? I drive my car.... oh you wanted me to review the SPEAKER! oh! ok, well I don't use a speaker. i drive around beating on a 4x8 foot piece of plywood for bass.
Weakness:
it get's a little tiring, but people seem to enjoy my system, they are always laughing and smiling as I drive by. I have blown out every window in my car thee hundred times with my kickass system, i set of 5,582 car alarms to date and I have won the world SPL competition for the past 200 years. My system kick ROCKS it hits HARD it PUNCHES. It is the best system in the world. It beats the pants off of RF, Pioneer, JL, JBL, CV, Ground Zero, pyramid and every other system or audio product ever made. The sound quality is soo reallistic that i played some elvis and people were running toward my car because they thought the king was back..... Similar Products Used: I used a sheet of tin once but it was too "boomy", I have tried evry other speker known to man and I am a professional installer of audio systems, this is the BEST I have evr heard. |

Strength:
1st price, the company is just starting out and the product is sure to go up in price. 2nd, the look of the product, it turns head at all the car show's. 3rd, they sound as good or better than most of the high dollar products out there.
Weakness:
The company is sell so many that retailers are on back order for all their products. I highly recommend all their product since I compete with them and win. Audio Bahn is the only company that I know of that has a 1-800 line to get in touch with them,(1-800-488-8595). They even have a tech that can assit you with install info and spec's to get the perfect sound. Audio Bahn also has TEAM AUDIO BAHN, if you a member you get Audio Bahn T-Shirts, Caps, and a lot of assitance with shipping and product info. This company will bend over backwards for team members who are competing. And their line of high current amp are the BOMB! Similar Products Used: JL, Pioneer Premier, MTX. The Audio Bahn products perform as good or better. |

Alum10's
Strength:
These subs hit harder than anything else I've heard!!!!!
Weakness:
Aluminum cones will dent easily, so be careful. I have 4 alum10's powered by 2 18001D amps in the back of my hatch. I have entered the car in 5 local spl competitions and won every single one. These subs hit 158.7db with a little over 750w rms to ea. That's absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!! Ive delt with other to brand companys before and never got that close to the envelope. I would recommend these subs to anyone wanting to win a spl competition, and willing to go deaf in the process. Similar Products Used: non that I know of. |

2000/aw1200s
Strength:
Im using 4 aw1200s in my hatchback now and i designed the box to the exact specifications. they are all powered by 2 2150hc. These subs are really impressive, much better than JL audio, the awc which is almost audiobahns bottom line is equilevent to the jl w3. I really suggest to get audiobahns 2000 line, i also sell it (e-mail for prices). if you want that spl/sq sound aw1200 is to go but does have a lil more spl but if you want more sq do the alum12 or just all out spl do the aw1205s.
Weakness:
Only Weakness i can think of is the writing on the 99 models Cant say what i paid online, pretty cheap though Similar Products Used: Never used anythign similar, only used all out spl subs |
