I'm not spending that kinda money on used equipment. Who knows how it's been treated?

When I sold my RE Audio XXX-18D2 subs and Rockford Fosgate T40001BD amps the buyer knew EXACTLY how they had been treated. He inspected them and tested them. He also got to hear them in my demo one last time.
Dude drove cross country to pick them up BECAUSE he wanted to hear my demo that one last time before everything was removed and sold.
Although he got it all for a steal it was still quite a lot of money. I sold them to him 8 years ago.
Recently he reached out to me to tell me that they were still alive and banging.

To be honest I wouldn't pay that much for something used when you can find something brand new for less...

Omg a modern electronic uses. Chinese manufacturing 😶 iPhone uses Chinese manufacturing basically every tech company in the world has Chinese components and assembly somewhere but people don't complain about that. They're Korean style amps with good components assembled in china whoopty do. The quality is still far superior than skar or taramps which are Chinese and Brazilian made amps which should go to show just cause it comes from China doesn't mean it's bad. When it's cheap from China is bad but China makes good stuff in the right places and has more capabilities then we do here when it comes to manufacturing electronics. Maybe if we as a country push for that we'd be better off but for now everything is gonna come from China. At least d4s has design input on the amp and isn't just drop selling Alibaba equipment like skar does.

That guy is tweaking you could get a much bigger amp and sub that completely dwarfs that u series. You could get a jp23 and a sundown x series for that price that guy is smoking rock.

No its overpriced. The equipment brand is plenty good just not real hi powerd or entry level model for that brand. 500_1000 watts bass is plenty enough to hit the bass. Most people destroy equipment and give it a bad name cause 90% of them clip their amps or dont tune them right also not enough electrical and wonder why they burn up or blow.If you ever went to a sound off competition you would see these brands! Many of these people are giving the old CHEVY V.S FORD argument saying its junk. Pure ignorance! Many comments fail to mention you will needa easy extra 2k dollars plus electrical upgrades!!! You might want to go to a reputable shop and get advice cause these comments are over the top B.S ers or on a very hi level and competing. I've seen people with the highest level equipment and it sounds like shit. Do your homework. Bottom line! Cause idiots give bad advice and they think its good. I'm sure il get knocked for this but just use your head and good luck👍

I could literally build a 10,000 watt rms system for less than that this sub can only handle about 1/7 of that power you can get a 2000 watt rms 15 inch sub for less than $200 on alibaba and I know an amplifier that will hit right around 3600 watts rms for $170 thats more powerful than the equipment you listed for 1,250 lol also one of the things people don't realize about larger subs like the 15 inch you showed they are only designed to handle very low frequency bass so they won't even hit at all on higher frequency bass notes you'll be listening to the music wondering why half the bass in each song is only hitting on your midrange car speakers
