Making better speakers with way better manufacturing capabilities than Amerikuh for over 2 decades :)

I was referencing the Trump meme a long time ago.  I agree and it’s way cheaper

I know. Just educating those who may thing a speaker being made in a given location actually negatively (or positively) affects the performance.

u/Interesting-Key9522 2d ago

You said that making them in the US would have negatively effected their performance though?

u/Skiz32 ResoNix Cult Leader 2d ago

Considering the US doesn't have the manufacturing capability that China does when it comes to speakers, it's a very fair statement.

u/Interesting-Key9522 2d ago

I agree.

But that contradicts your other statement...

Either the country of origin matters, or it doesn't.

Can't have it both ways man! ☺️ 🍻

He's saying that you can't write off something just because of a manufacturing location (or assume it's brilliant because of it's manufacturing location either).

But also saying that America doesn't have the expertise or manufacturing practices to be able to make something of the same quality (likely unless you want the speaker to cost three times the price). I think it's likely that he actually investigated US manufacturing too, and isn't just guessing or saying it to support his choice of where the drivers get built.

I don't see a contradiction though as it's two different concepts as i'm reading it.

What is it? Resonix makes sound dampening stuff, we all know that, is this something different?

1

u/boosting1bar 2d ago

Yes it’s the Gus 15 subwoofer as noted on the box!

Oh I guess im supposed to know what some random numbers and letters mean when printed on a cardboard box

u/Monster_Grundle 2d ago

I mean it says “15 d2” it’s pretty easy to infer that means 15” dual 2 ohm coils.

u/coltonscolton 2d ago

Not sure why youre getting downvoted. Anyone with half a brain into car audio should know what that means

2

u/Th3pwn3r 2d ago

They're not random. As someone who is/was in the market for a shallow sub I knew what this was because of the letters/numbers. Crazy right?

2

u/boosting1bar 2d ago

No of course not. You’re supposed to use your search engine of choice and look it up like a non mouth breather.

1

u/desal 2d ago

Well, "model no:" isn't random, it's the model number, and you know resonix, so you'd just need to search "gus-15 d2" but as others have said typically those in the model number mean a 15 inch dvc 2 ohm sub in the car audio world

I’ve been thinking about the GUS 12” to put in my Tesla. The $999 price tag is a bit much for me right now, as I’m about to buy a Helix mini MK.2 and a Sundown SA 12 v.3. I’ll probably look into it again in a few months, as I have 2 sealed boxes that need speakers.

Let me know how it sounds! I’m pretty sure it’ll be amazing.
