[QUOTE="Jeff Hancock, post: 8675603, member: 677103"] We probably invented the idea of using 12 inch sub woofers , because we used to throw a couple of house stereo speakers in the back seat when we was teenagers and wired them up to a 350 watt power booster equalizer that we could buy at just about any audio store , or we even used a set of Band PA Stage Speakers 12 " usually in the back seat of our cars with about 150 feet of speaker wire so we could lay them up on the roof of the car late on a Saturday Night at a field party way out in the sticks some where . Yes their 8 ohmn woofers and their cones are made out of paper with about a 40 oz magnet on the back and they worked out fine behind the power booster equalizer and back then in the late 70's and early 80's we had the baddest sound systems around and it rocked and yes it was okay for rock and roll and blues and soul and old school R&B but not really would be the best idea for bumping gangster rap from the 90's and 2000's ? Nope for that an updated system with a mono block amp and modern day 12" sub woofers for more bass drive is needed , but an old school set up like i mentioned would still be great for rocking out . Unfortunately a person doesn't have to home fabricate something like we used to do like that any more , but it makes me really wonder if we wasn't the ones who invented the idea of putting 10 inch , 12 inch , and 15 inch sub woofers mounted in big boxes in cars and vans , because most of our friends never thought about coming up with this . They just mounted 6 x 9 inch car speakers up in the back shelf with a power booster equelizer . We may have been the inventors of the idea to use big 12 inch sub woofers mounted in boxes though .
