Faulty speaker, but AMAZING customer service

Review by Levi Dalton on 7/6/2024

I ordered this speaker for my Ghv3 and it was awesome. The bass and sound quality of the speaker is amazing and unlike any other speaker I've purchased! Unfortunately, I got a little unlucky and the speaker died after about 20 minutes of light use! However, I contacted Customer service and they were immediately able to help me check my speaker to make sure everything was intact before sending a new speaker. After walking me through the steps of the diagnostics and deciding that it was a faulty speaker, they quickly sent me a replacement for my lightsaber.

excellent volume, presence and clarity

I have tried many speakers over the course of time, but very few sound great at 2500 or higher volume on a proffie3.9 board - this performs there and beyond, 3200 even. Compared to other speakers the bass is surprisingly good, at high volumes I've had to reduce lockup/clash settings because it can self-trigger from the vibrations. The foam front surround is a pain for tight spaces but can be removed (carefully) if need be. So far no issues with the 3 that I have, even after many hours of usage.

ditto on bad speaker

Review by Tony on 7/6/2023

after two days of moderate use the speaker just cut out. Dead as a doornail! Not sure how to mount it with the support needed while still maintaining space for a resonance chamber. Not without making it permanent part of the fixture and impossible to remove my pommel to get at my chassis. This one is a big fat FAIL.

Excellent sound and volume

I've had this speaker in a special project for several months now, mounted in a wood resonance chamber and it sounds incredible with a CFX. Not sure why everyone else is having issues but I wonder if perhaps they aren't mounting the speakers correctly. You see a lot of glue in designs in chassis for whatever reason where the speaker isn't braced or supported from the front. And with bass type speakers that have a large amount of travel in the diaphragm, suspension, and spider. There isn't much to keep the speaker from vibrating itself apart. You need to support the front of the speaker somehow, a ring or gasket or hot glue of some kind, or do a press in mount instead of a drop in mount. There is nothing wrong with speaker, just how people are using it is wrong. Note: as a rule of thumb a 4ohm (higher draw) is going to pull more juice from your battery than a 8ohm. So you will notice distortion when the battery drops low. With direct draw style 3.7V boards this is common.

Distortion

Review by William on 7/21/2021

I bought this speaker and installed it in a Proffie Board saber. It worked fine at first, but after a few days of casual use (no abuse) it started sounding distorted. I did some more research only to find that this is a common problem with this speaker. I will be replacing it with a different speaker.
