I know I've heard they sound bad before but having owned a pair I thought they were good for what they are. I will say that I experienced bad sound from these right out of the gate but after a few amplifier changes I was able to get good "woof" sound out of them. They really need A LOT of power or else they sound loose and flappy. About 600 watts RMS (or more) each and they tighten up and add a good amount of low end fill for the KP-250's giving them that throaty bass in the lower midrange that they lack without these subs. They are not home theater subs as mentioned above.

I bought a pair to use at coffeehouses (and whatever) at my church.  I did not find them bad at all, powered by a good sized Crown amp at moderate volumes.  I use HIPs on top crossed at 100 Hz with an electronic crossover. 

 

Anybody got a spec sheet on them?
