Unfortunately, we are not able to send amplifier with them. Please use a maximum of 1000 watts @ 8ohms to each as recommended.

Email sent! I would love to give them a listen! I do sound for a monthly outreach that has several bands performing and I can set up a pair of SRX718's to compare them with.

Evan would have to work much harder, with bigger amps than the Powersoft K10 we had in NYC... I don't think he can pull that off yet.

We may sign up too. We could compare them to our Labs, Yorkville subs and maybe some SB850s. I'll check tonight...

Let me know if the triple 12's ever go on road test.
I'd love to try them.

They took 2500 watts each in NYC, with a track that had sine waves below the cutoff of the Growler. They did not blow up or smoke out. EM Acoustics 215 box let out magic smoke at the rep's request to drive it til it quit.

If you use the recommended HPF, I think the Growlers would survive such powering on the type of program you typically have.

You will have to work harder.

Have fun, good luck, and don't blow stuff up.

What's the fun in that Laughing

I have blown up literally hundreds of loudspeakers back in my rental days. A lot can be learned from that. Ie: what caused it to fail, what could be done to stop the failure etc.

Of course that was back when loudspeakers were less robust, but then again we didn't have the power we have available today. But we were trying to get just as loud Very Happy

Looks like you'll be first up. Dave Dermont is giving up his dibs however you have to give the growlers to him next.
