Default Tang Band 6.5" subs for the sail openings for sale

I bought these the same time I picked up a set of M-6's that I just installed in the Civic. I was going to use these in the TA but purchased the Bazookas from Kee and installed them. It would be nice to see someone from here get the chance to use these before I E-Bay them. They are BNIB never used SVC 4 Ohm. The spec's from Parts Express says 13mm X-max which is pretty darn high. They also get very good reviews so I would really like to see someone get them up and running! This is them... W6's:

Cost you about $112.00 for the pair shipped. I will ship them FedEx Ground for $95.00.

Well if nobody buys them I may play someday and switch the Bazookas out for these and see how I like it. They for sure have some X-max. I don't know how much X-max the Bazookas have because I couldn't find it.

I guarantee you not even half as much. More likely a third tops. I'm not sure if there's enough room in the sail panels for the spacer needed due to the depth AND the large Xmax though.

I would be interested but cant exactly do right now. I see the bazookas that Kee has are 100watts rms/200peak power, while the TB is 50watts rms/100. They also have a higher freq response. How are they better than them?
(Just curious, not too keen on stereo tech)

I dare you to put 100W on the Bazookas. Bazooka is on the lowest tier of speaker companies, along with Pyramid, Pyle, etc. They will also run out of Xmax long before you even get to their thermal limit (unless they are BSing it, which I can almost guarantee they are). Simply put, TB is a trusted company and one of the largest speaker manufacturers in the world. Bazooka is entry-level... well, I'll leave it at that.
