but i just wanted to know about their tarantula series 12inches and what the dual voice coil rating for each voice coil is and any clue wat decibel ratings anyone has acheived with this sub

As for scores, Streetsoundz will eventually find this thread and be able to give you bit more of an idea.

do yous know wat the minimum rms power u can pump into the 12s i know they are ported so power can be short then recommended but also so they can be wired either a .5 ohm load in parallel or 2 ohm in series is this correct dont forget im only 16 lol and yeah want to get into the car audio retail ay

you can run them either way or if you have 2 you can wire them to 1ohm the least amount of power i have run mine is 1000 rms a piece and still get 144dB @ 2ohm

are your boxes built to recommended or custom to a certain frequency for max spl?
and also my mono block can only go to a 2 ohm load so i would be best wiring the 12inch voice coils in series for 2 ohm load max power from my amp

Please dont mention my name i no longer have affiliation with any brand therefore i choose not to comment.

why would you not comment? you've done tests with them, so why not tell him the results?.............

Because no matter how much i test a product i am sick and tired of revealing results and then being blasted by people on here because the results turned out what they didnt expect.

if people cant face the simple truths of life, then i pity them streetsoundz, but i think u would be doing a big service to this young man and all the rest of us who dont know about the tarantula subs, and thier potential...

the results would be good to c mate...

Oh grow up George, the guy is after opinions from people who have actually used the stuff.

You are probably the most qualified to give this guy info due to your history with SS and the fact that you actually used the stuff with success.

With an attitude like that I wonder how you could possibly work in the industry or even retail for that matter.

So what if people don't like/agree with your test results, thats life.

Get over it.

Right now i get attacked because i dont want to be seen as biased.

Whateva!!!!!!!

Do a search i have covered this topic before.

just did a search... nothing comes up for soundstream t4 or even just t4...

i think its the comparison between the t4 and a sub from the dd stables....

anyone with a link and with enough balls not to care wot others are gonna think will u please post up a link if u find it...

on another note, i think there is too many grown men acting like little kids on these forums lately, and it may be time for some maturity....

Here....

heh i was gunna search out that link too. That should answer some questions.
Davinchy has had great success with the T4 15"s in his wagon.
The Doran Pro Audio SS demo car does low 150's and looks hot .
Going back a number of years, Tim Rubens enjoyed great success with a pair of SS SPL160 15"s in his Celica and was one of the first privateers to crack 150dB.

Ultimately if you can afford them and like them, get them. They're good woofers from a good brand.
