3. Description/Condition:

If you haven't heard of the ava, they have often been compared to XXX and the Brahma sub lines. In fact, the motor design was licensed from Adire to build this sub. It is a top of the line SQ sub that loves the low end. Search your favorite sub forum, read up, and you won't have to take my word for it.

I bought this sub four or five years ago. It is BNIB, and has never seen power. There is adhesive visible at the edge of the dust cap as well as a fleck on the dust cap itself (~10 o'clock in the image). I received it directly from Chad at AA in this condition. It was purchased as new and I paid full price for it ($225 + shipping at the time). The fleck on the cap looks like it would come off easily, but I have not tried to remove it. See images below.

4. Price:

$225 + shipping. Free pickup in Phoenix! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The ONLY trades I would consider would be for a CD7100 or CD7200mkii that is in like new condition.

Some of you may notice that the price has gone up and the quantity has gone down since I posted this sub about a month ago. Since then, I have decided to keep the other sub for myself, and I also moved half way across the country. My goal was to not have to move it and to get enough money to finance my new build. The move is behind me and I have already purchased my next system (graduation FTW). I am more than happy to sit on this puppy until it sells or I decide to build a HT sub with it.

This may be the last virgin avalanche you will ever see for sale!

So then does Chad work for Fi or did he sell the company and split?

Chad split, he has his own business in the home audio sector epik audio. Anyway, these are pretty nice drivers, I used to own one. Low end is great as he mentioned and sq is great, it keeps the same sound from low volume to high, instead of getting boomy like alot of drivers tend to do. I'd do about 4 cubes ported at 32hz in a trunk car that can fit it, if not 2.5 sealed sounds awesome too.

Forgot I was going to need to buy deadening and wiring

LOL, guess you could cash in if you had a four gage kit (similar to this: Car Audio Wire), 50 feet of 16ga wire, and ~50sq feet of RAAMat or damplifier (dynamat Xtreme would work too) plus a little cash.

Yeah, so considering trades for the above and price drop to $200 + shipping
