The paper cones are better for your MMS (rather than a plastic/aluminum/other) and often just as strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 In a marine environment, I would think a composite cone and rubber surround would hold up better over the long haul. (Just my opinion though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawlins87 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 were not in a marine environment lol (but i see what your saying)if your comparing 450 subs check this out. Its a sound splinter sub that was designed by TC sounds (biiig sub build house in the US) I believe this is their 4hp motor design.http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/SoundSplinter-RL%252ds-12%22-Single-4ohm.html# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that dude Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 looks like a paper cone. wouldnt work in my boat. what exactly is a woven cone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 were not in a marine environment lol (but i see what your saying)The OP is looking for something to put in a boat. Not saltwater, but stuff on a boat is considered marine, typically. Aquariums, saltwater is considered marine.I looke at those Soundsplinters, and their Premium line looke decent. The one that you linked to, the supreme looks like more bling than sing to me. I haven't heard either to know, just my impression from their site.
