For subwoofers generally a manufacturer will say 40hrs for breakin and then gains/volume can go up. I had one sub I went full tilt on and in the first 10 minutes the spider tore from the basket, kinda a shame cause at the time I didn't know how to fix it and it was a spendy sub for me then too. You will be able to hear the tone change as they break in so for the first week or so just take it easy with volume and you should be ok to rock after that.

Have you heard that song on a good system?! I heard it at a club and I have had irregular heart beat ever since :roflsquared:

Yes I have and if you thought it sounded good in your truck before just wait till everything is coming at you 100x more detailed. Seriously though its like going from standard definition to HD 3D, kinda nuts.

^^^ I can't wait for that!!!

Bad news, I got shipping confirmations and it looks like everything won't be here in time to install on Monday and Tuesday. It will have to be the following Monday and Tuesday (15th and 16th).

Sweet let me know what you think. For the size I think you will be surprised at the heft of them.

Lmao! In that case, I won't let my wife see the amps... I never show her anything that will give her a sense of scale.

Actually, I had all the furniture in our bedroom built to 3/4 scale to make my shaft look bigger!
