Purchased this recently on the info that it was a demo sub in a dealer showroom, but cannot verify that. It is in great shape, and functions flawlessly. One of my favorite subwoofers to date. Blends so easily with the front stage, and still reproduces sub bass with a very natural sound. Asking $65 shipped for this. No rips or tears in the surround, cone is in good shape, but there are noticable dimples in the dust cap. This is the DVC 6-ohm version.
