I'd trust the Soundqubeds before that other stuff.

Well the great things about the Tantric subs will be, I can try before I buy and they will come with a fresh recone. One of them was being tried out as a burp sub.

Hey, guys. First post here. Thought I'd chime in on these since they were built specifically for me.
The glue mess is because Tantric doesn't make the LD in a 15" normally. He had to use a sleeve to adapt a 2" coil/former to a 2.5" coil cone. That- and he always uses extra glue on my sub joints because I beat the ever lovin' snot out of my subs. As in... I burped these subs on a 10,000w amp.
The LD line is a 2" copper coil, "500w" sub. I know none of you care about "burp" numbers, but they're also capable of impressive output as seen in this video testing the 12" version in my CRX on ~ 1,200w.

These, as mentioned, are a special order item. The ones pictured are the only two in existence. But they look really good for IB use so Murph has agreed to make them if Fricasee likes them.
They're limited on stroke by the motor. The larger lines allow for more stroke and the next step up, the "MD" line steps it up another 10mm on the xmax, has a Qts of .6 but gives up some in the Le to ~ 2.3mH. And just as an aside, all Tantric subs are hand built by one person (the guy who designed all of them) right here in Louisiana using as many American parts as possible.
Anyway, not tryin to sell anything. Just offering a little insight.

Thanks Taylor.
What would make a great video would be to show the sub playing free air. I'd like to see how much excursion it's capable of without any noise coming from the motor.

I can do that.
Thermally capable of 1KW for how long?
That's an excellent question. I'll have to get back to you on that.
I'm sure there are many factors that come into play. I was just going by the ampacity rating of the windings.
I'm sorry, Chad. I misspoke. It's the MD's 2.5" coil that's capable of 1kw thermally. Although, the LD can take dynamic swings in that range.
My apologies. I shall edit that presently so as not to mislead.
TaylorFade,
Don't worry about it !
Fric will only be putting about 400 watts to em !
I think he's just trying to get correct the facts out there.
