I am they're not woofers but mid bass drivers so they will play higher frequency but still have punch and believe they definitely do. Here's a link to them so you can see some specs

I got a couple pair of the new PRV's to try, and can't wait to hear them. I'm looking forward to this build, a Pitbull front end, Top Shop rear, custom TP w/internal 8's.

After i related the story of what i went through with the mmats PA 10"s with Dave at Mmats, i have another set and a more appropriate amp to wrk with, he said that i should be able to cross them @40hz and let them roll, I'll report after i get it all back together again. Gonna wire up the main speakers on a HiFi 6150. Hope it sounds good.

Faitals - they sound great and produce the closest thing to subwoofer bass. The smaller the bag the more power you need. I've used a 1200.1 and 1600.1 on them. Heck I've used a 2k and 3k also! I'll say that I know a few guys running 1600.1's on them and have blown a few of them pushing the envelope. They're great, but be careful.

GZ 10's (new ones) - Since they're 4ohm you have some more wiring amp options. I've used a small as an 800.4 bridged to them. I think with any of these it really depends how loud the rest of the bike is, and how loud you need your bass to keep up with the mids and highs. You can use a 1600.1 with these with no issues. These aren't as low bass as the faitals but do sound like subs.

GZ 10's (old ons) - Pass, they're not that good. The MMats 10's are almost the same.

PRV - New 10's. These ****'s punch but you need big bags for them to sound right. I like the neo motor and that they are 4ohm. Very punch bass, but don't expect it to roll on the bottom end like a sub.

PRV 10W650's - these are work horses. I've used as little as 200w from a JL 600/6 on them and they will fill out well in the low end but not as punchy as the 1000's and not sub bass like the others. I've never blown a pair either though.

I'm sure there's others out there. Hope this helps.
Why are GZCK old?
