I just got the new Bazooka tube. Its the RS104DV

10" Woofer
500 watt RMS
Dual Voice Coil (each handles 250 rms)
Efficiency 104db
Dual 4ohm impedence

It retails for $279, but I got it brand new, in its sealed box for $150.00

Im shopping for an amp now that will pump out around 200-250x2 rms to power it (the tube is unamplified).

I will soon be in the world of BASS!!!

I have a few questions though...it comes with a bridge plate that you can use to allow it to accept a single 500watt input, instead of (2) 250 watt inputs...any advantage/disadvantage to this? Would I be better off giving it 2x250 or 1x500 lets say? Or is this only included as a convience to make it more flexible with your amp?

Also, who out here has bazooka tubes, what do you think of them?

TIA

I was thinking of this sub also, any feedback is appreciated.

I know someone on here is using a Visionik Amp, how do you like it. I think this would be a good match for my sub since it puts out 2x225 RMS, or I could bridge it and feed the sub 600w, which I know the amp wont be really putting out, so figure a slight degradation from their claim...probably just under 500 watts maybe?

I have a visonik but mine is 1200W X 1. It hits hard!!!!

Thanks, I think I'm gonna go with that amp. I have the bazooka tube wired into my stereo in my room, and thats only givin it 180 watts, and that thing hits hard!!! I can hear all my windows and doors rattling. Cant wait till I save up another 40$ so i can buy the amp and wire this up in my car!!
