I'm amazed.

I'm old school: 1996 old school... I had 10s and a Punch 45, 15s and a Denon 1000-watt amp; I built boxes and spent a lot of time and money damaging my ears as a Gen X youth. When I saw these 6.5, I remembered the name brand from back in the day and decided to give it a shot. I built a chambered 6th order box and stuck these in there. I was startled by the amount of air they could move and the amount of Bass they could produce. I have them with a 500 watt cheap amp running them at 2 Ohm and they Hit Hard. These work as well as some old school 10's. They are Cheap and they are small. If you need the space and a good deal I highly recommend getting a set and light them

6.5 and 15" review!
By Frank Graetz on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2013
The 15: So i ordered 4 of these on Parts Express. And before i go any further, I'm not like half the people on here. I know its a LANZAR woofer, So you need to be extra careful with them. Lanzar doesnt state the RMS of the woofer, only the peak. And the people with EXPERIENCE would know, lanzar's words arent good for anything. 2000 watts is the peak, So for those people who say "i only put 8000 clipping pyle watts and it only lasted for 1 seconds hur dur this is crap", is wrong. This isnt a bad woofer, but i would only expect it good for 300 clean watts. No more. The foam surround colour fades in the sunlight fast and it has a tiny spider, Now, most of the time, the fading surround dosnt count against performance, The small spider doesn't allow a lot of Xmax. Now, Lanzar is famous for sending woofers that aren't good. Just like my 6.5 lanzar sub, my friends 6.5 lanzar sub, and one or two of my 15" subs, the voice coil isnt 100% glued... AGAIN. And it makes clicking sounds just like the 6.5. When you take off the magnet boot, the double stacked magnets are odd. One is short and wide while the other is tall and skinny, Almost like they forgot they needed to make a new magnet but got lazy so they used a megnet for a existing sub. (it dosnt bother me, but if you where to invert it and have the boot off, it would look gross and dosnt affect the performance at all.) However, its not that bad of a sub. Its cheap, Magnet size is alright, and if you take off the magnet boot, you get better cooling for the coil.UPDATE FOR THE 15" i got a 2000 watt rms amp and i can smell burning coils when i turn it up. i have 4 of these, so 2000/4=500 watts per sub. It cant handle 500 watts rms clean without clipping. Fail on lanzar. I really thought lanzar would maintain the awesome-ness they had in the 90's, but i guess not. They fell to the crap quality like a lot of old audio company's did. R.I.P old lanzar.I ordered this on the 8th of June and it came at the 17th. shipping was 35 dollars not including the woofer. When i got it, half the voice coil was separated from the spider. so i took my heat gun and blasted it and attempted to repair it. when i realized the voice coil was only half glued. i'll hit it with some 2 part epoxy and hopfully it will stick then. you can hear the woofer here:[...]
