Anyone ever used these? If yes, what do you think about them? Qualitywise.
I ordered one but am wondering how they will really sound. Caranddomain's reviews says that this is for a ported box but the specs sheet says it is both for ported or sealed. I can;t find any english written site with more details on it. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thats pretty funny that you mention that because I just heard one this morning. They are pretty damn sick. One of the best sounding subs I have ever heard. It was running in a sealed box that look to be about 1.25 cubic feet. It was running off a Micro Dimmensions Mono block that was pushing about 700 watts rms in a MX3. Like I said, it sounded great, im sure you will be happy.

The specs says its a 250Watt / 500watt peak. If my amp is higher (like 700watts for example), won't that be harmful to the sub? just concerned to not burn down my hard earned investment. However I feel better already about their quality by reading your response. Thanks!

Depends if you are responsible with you gear or not. Like I said this car is running far more power than that to this sub and has been doing so for a good 6 months now. If its set properly you should be OK. I over power everthing I have, subs, speakers whatever. Just make sure you set stuff properly.
