    i looked up some of them and they dont look all that good and they are a bit heavy on the price side 250 bucks for a 18'' sub that only holds 1000watts rms it aint bad but i rather keep my tens to be truthfull heres the stats on the 18 inch sub Power Handling: 1000 Watts R.M.S.
    Frequency Response: 20-160 Hz
    Voice Coil Diameter: 4" (100mm)
    Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohms
    Magnet Structure: 200 oz
    Weight: 25 lbs.
    Multi-layer, precision-wound polyamide voice coils create superior electro-mechanical energy conversion
    Rigid, heat dissipating cast-aluminum or steel frames provide ultimate motor structure support
    Deep, bumped back plates allow the voice coil to reach maximum excursion without bottoming-out, resulting in deep bass
    Advanced cone materials with superior internal damping mean ultra-fast transient response and super-low distortion
    Tough, flexible surround with long-throw, positive-roll design, control extreme cone excursion and is highly tear-resistant
    Vented pole piece pumps air through the magnetic gap and directly over and around the voice-coil

    8 ohm impedence sounds like a home theater sub. Most subs you se in mobile audio are going to 4 ohm or less.

    I have seen their products and heard them, sounds real good for the price that you are paying. speakers are nice and actually stitched, which very few lines these days have stitched surrounds. The element series amp look really good as well. The only thing is the ELW series subs , you have to get a custom box because it will not fit in any kind of prefabbed box because of the weird shape of the basket. Other than that the subs are good for the price and CF cone. They are well known outside of the USA. I think it is the first year they have sold their products in the US ... after CES.
