  • New Temp sub. What is it?

    I bought it the other day for $140 and they told me it was some "custom" since it was that cheap, i figured i'd buy it anyway, but i still have no idea what it is. They didn't even know the impedance of the coils. ANybody have any idea? It's a 10 BTW, people on caraudio thought it was an 8 because i guess i have big hands.

    umm... why would you pay 140 for a sub when you know nothing about it??

    regardless, i dont know what it is either, but it does kinda look like an 8" from the pics

      Use a DMM to find out the impedance of the coils.

          no it is a 10, it fits right into my old 10" box. i just bought it because i had always wanted a DD and this one was too cheap to pass up. I just emailed DD to see if they could tell me.

              Oh and the people on DD's forum and Caraudio are, for the most part, guessing its an older 3510

                  IMO, someone took advantage of you. 140 for a used sub is a little much. but as long as it makes you happy. w/e

                      and it was basically new from what i understand, it was from a shop that may have tested it in the shop but thats it.

                        what they ask and what they sell for are two different things. and ive never heard of this digital designs company. ive been around this stuff for a while.

                        for example. i have one 12 that cost right around 600 dollars. i could sell it for about 1/3- maybe 1/2 of that. even it being in perfect shape.

                        im not trying to be a ****, i just think this guy got taken advantage of.

                          you've been around audio for a while and haven't heard of digital designs? Are you an SQ only guy or what? Digital Designs is one of most recognized companies in SPL. If you want to get loud you buy DD.

                          FYI Their Product Lines are:
                          0500
                          1000
                          2500
                          3500
                          9100
                          9500
                          9900
                          9900z
                          So the sub that I bought "NEW" is a 3500 series. Generally, the 1000 series sells for as much as what I paid. (I said new that way because it is an old model, but wasn't used)

                          What was this 12 that you paid "around" 600 for?

                            DD is extremely well known. Be you SPL or SQ type of guy, if you've had car audio as a real hobby (not interest).... you'd know who DD is.

                            A used sub is worth what the market is willing to pay. As with anything used. Some items hold their worth more then others. Ebay is your friend when trying to ballpark market value. As for this deal....he didn't get ripped or score huge. He just bought a nice sub.:)

                              the products people are familiar with are very much influenced on their location.

                              the question is, what do I have... well, i have a half fiberglass half mdf box that is 3.25 cubic feet ported and tuned at 35hz. one 12' sub. a us amps 2000x as well as a 1000x and also, a cerwin vega 4 channel amp. 2 sets of vega components and currently fiberglassing some kick panels to add another set. then throwing out my vega amp, gettin the us amps tube amp. also thinking baout upgrading components to nakamichi. only thing holding me back is then i will have a bastard system. that is what i currently have. i have had many other things in my car. also, i have lying around, my current sub in the 15 inch version. :) waiting til i feel it neccesary.
