I was going to keep this since I've had it for awhile, but I haven't used it in 6 months now, and it's just taking up space. You will not find a better sub for under $800. I bought this sub in '94 for $750, and they are still going used for $500 on Ebay!
Anyway, I'm giving the club first dibs at $350, then on craislist for $400. If I don't get any interest it will go on ebay in a few days. With just my small quintets, this thing never gets turned up past 3, and it still shakes the room. It's truly a badass sub, and I tried all sorts of other subs before I bought it. It is in very good condition with just minor skuffing on the cabinet and grille. It has a forward firing 10" speaker, and a downward firing 12". As you can see from the pics, there is no phase switch or low-pass adjustment. It doesn't need it it, I tried subs with all of that, but none matched how seamlessly this sub blends in. I've matched this sub with many high and low-end speakers, and the only ones that didn't match perfect were NHT Zeros.
