I bought four of the Harbinger hx118s subs from Musician's Friend,to go with the two I had previously bought from their sister company(G.C.) I'm running these with a Crown XLS5000 power amp...3 per side...with two Two-way 15's sitting on top for my mids/highs. I think with the load distributed like I'm running my system...you probably can't do any better as far as dollar value-for-db goes. there may be tighter sounding combo's...but not anywhere near this price point...I know...I listened to Peavey,QSC,Mackie,JBL,Yamaha,Kustom,Bose,and a few others. But I kept coming back to the $$$ value of the Harbinger's. Just make sure you are giving these little-thumpers adequate power...and they will impress.I'm running about 1800-2000 watts per side(3 cabs per)

I have yet to be disappointed by these speakers. I'm pushing them with an old crown 600 watt amp and they sound phenominal! Can't wait to push them with a bigger amp. I use them for live sound for my metal band and they have gone far beyond my expectations. Worth twice their price. Great sound and price, solidly built, definitly worth checking out before buying something twice their price........

Bought these for our bar band and we have been very pleased. Good thump, crisp sound, nice looking. At 8 ohms you need a strong amp, but for the price you can't beat these guys! We play dance and hip-hop in between our sets and these babies HIT! Still new so not sure about reliability, but so far no problems.

I sound checked the Harbinger HX118 sub against subs from other major manufacturers at twice the cost. These subs kick out great low end, but are also very musical. This sets them apart from the others and they are a great value. Harbinger makes their own drivers which is only done by a few speaker manufacturers today. They are also 8 ohm speakers which will allow you to daisy-chain them without taxing the amplifier too hard. Don't delay, buy these. You won't be sorry.
