Well when it comes to heavey, these must be in the top 2... Weighing in at 360kg per cab...


But I don't think you mean that kind of heavy lol...

Its a tuff call, why because every one of us has are own views on what heavy is...

Ive stood next to forum members, who have said god that scoop is heavy, Where its led me to question what do people class as heavy, because I'm hearing a 1 note heavy sound. Some people use the term heavy to cabs that play a solid low note, again I think its playing loud low but that's it.

For me I love a musical tone, one where I can hear every note and what instrument is playing that note, a very detailed clean sounding scoop. Heavy for me is that said scoop hitting every note and able to do it loud but clean.

Ive heard too many people use heavy, when I hear drivers crying for there life....

I mean how loud is too loud when all you can hear is that 60hz rumble only, when there is so many more frequency's in the tune you cant hear.

So to sum up a heavy scoop is one that's hits all the notes cleanly but at high spl, with out the driver crying....

Heavy means that 'DOOPH' low note, that pushes air in your face and chest, and at times, passes gravity to your rectum. Like the elephant stomping in the lion king

At the time, Aba asked me to modify the shortman full scoop. I said no. Just didn't feel right making another builders scoop sound good. If he's asked me now, I would say ...YEAH, NO PROB

4ft x 2ft x 3ft scoop will not sound much different from another full scoop. There is only so much you can do internally.That's why I did the DubSub to put something different out there
