Torrent Audio

Hello,

After a few days on the internet looking at different car audio subwoofers to use in my next installl, I came accros a new company that offered a 12" subwoofer that looked pretty good, atleast for me and my requirements. After looking at it the basket of the sub looks exactly like a TC sounds DB-500. This company along with ProTech have the exact same subwoofer, but with differnt names and logos on their dustcaps. I have also heard that they, Torrent, used TC Sounds in house manufacturing to produce this sub, the Mistral 12. I can't remember what the TC Sounds had for T/S specs, but maybe some of you have them and can compare them to these new subs. Also, Torrent isn't going to produce anymore of these because of costs, and TC moving things around in their company, so when they are gone they are gone. They are currently looking for production in the US somewhere. Here is the link to both websites http://www.torrentaudio.com/mistral12dvc-p-73.html and http://www.protechloudspeakers.com/xo-12srt.htm. These look subs look like a contender for my car, but has anyone had experience with the old TC Sounds db-500? Anyway just thought I would post this interesting information and see what the experts had to say on this issue. Thanks for your time!
