Any info on these newer subs: Cadence XSUB, Acoustech H100, and Dayton 12"?

I know the Dayton will have no trouble hitting 24 Hz and can really deliver a punch. The woofer is pretty efficient as far as inexpensive subs go, hence requires a lot less power to produce output.

Haven't heard the others, but I'd trust the Dayton to be comparable. It is ugly though.

I would skip the Dayton for now since it is being replaced with a new front firing model. Looks much nicer as well. Should go as deep and the price is around 120 or so.

There's a bonus. Don't ever underestimate the importance of looks. I've made that mistake before. Or keep an eye out to see if the old model gets heavily discounted?

Go with a dayton. If you looking to keep it on a budget and buy from a more reputable maker your going to spend a lot just on the name. I can promise you the driver in the dayton is superior to the Cadence and Acoustech.

I'm new to HT more of a car audio nut up to now. But Cadence and Dayton are held pretty high in the car audio world.

Have you checked out www.adireaudio.com yet, if not do so. They have some great HT subs so I have heard. I have 2 of the Brahma 12's in my truck and they are the best cleanest most detalied sounding subs I have ever owned, oh and they will hit 10 htz so says my body and and truck trying to tear itself apart with my test tone cd.

Of your choices I would have to to go with the Cadence just for the rep I know of them.

But again try Adire my my subs in my car have the sound you are looking for. They have the ability to get insanely loud but it is more felt than heard. They are rather transparent AWESOME sounding subs. They don't really get as loud to the ears as some other setups I have had but you know they are there a lot more. Hell they make my door skins shudder at 500 of the possible 1500 watts possible. My alterantor can't take the 1ohm 1500 watts so I have to run them at 4ohm 500 watts for now.

Just unveleivable!
