I can’t seem to figure out which GZ red baskets? The ground zero web site is a bit hard to navigate. Any chance you could send a link?

Jeez, only 150Hz on the bottom? Even the 8"s are rated for 130Hz?

I think it's been reported that they will play a little lower than published spec. If I remember right that 150hz is if you're sending them 300w or better. I know some are sending them that much or more.

Thanks bud. Sure would be nice if they gave the spec for a more real world 150-200w max for a bike. The difference between 80 or even 90hz and 130Hz is enormous on these sleds.

Had mine crossed at 120hz sounded fine, but I have plenty of low end so I opted to put them back at 150hz. But, I am also sending them 400 watts each.
