i had one it hit solid till there was an issue with ym amp which took the sub with it

but other than that it hit nice, ojly issues ive heard

aluminum can warp under heat and im sure you can figure what goes down with aluminum and warpage and sq

In the next few weeks I will be having 2 Eclipse 8710.4 10in Subs powered by a Zapco Z400C4-SL amplifier
Focal 130KS for mids and high - plus some other goodies

I am hoping the eclipse's will be enough

Yeah I've rocked an Eclipse DVC 88120 aluminum cone for a few years now and I love it. I recently put a few dents in the cone so it looks shitty, but still sounds great. For Sale, btw.

And remember aluminum cone subs do need more power to move like other subs do with lighter cone materials.
