http://www.crutchfield.com/S-1JDp4oL...0&I=500SWR1242


hey should i buy this sub with a ported box for 150 bucks, its used

any suggestions what to check on the sub before buying it

only way i can test is to hook it up to a 350 rms watt amp, which is certianly underpowered..will that be okay???

get a multimeter and make sure the subs voice coils each meter out at 4 or 2 ohms. run your finger around the surround of the sub to make sure it isnt torn and look at the back of the surround(rubber) to make sure theres no electrical tape or silicone holding it together. yes underpowering it is a bad idea however getting it for 150 is worth the gamble.
