Sorry things did not work out for you. I would be willing to buy 2 of them from you if somebody else would be interested in the other 2.

It's unfortunate you were unable to provide any frequency response plots.
This makes you the first person in the 6+yr history of the forum not pleased with the performance of their IB

I'm sensing frustration and a bit of impatience on phunt's part. I can understand that but I really think you should take the time to calibrate it before you give up on it.
I think a house curve would really change your mind.

Since we are beating up the for sale post have you considered keeping them and building a ported box? This Post I mentioned earlier would be sick with 2 of them. Could likely more then get by with just one box with 2 rlp15's in it. Beat's throwing away $300 just to invest in something else. Jeff

Aw, we aren't beating up on him We just think he may have got frustrated and gave up too soon. I don't think he used a BFD or applied a house curve.

I paid more more than this for 4 x B stock AE IB15s + around $200 in freight charges here in Europe and was glad to get them even at that price.
I'd take these drivers off your hands in a flash at that price if you could arrange cheap air freight to Europe.
I really don't think you can have pushed their perfomance envelope at all unless you have applied a BFD house curve.
My IB also sounded rather pale and uninteresting until Thomas insisted I bought a BFD. He knows what he's talking about.

Sorry I have been bussy. I tryed the SMS-1 as an eq played with it for a few days, tryed my own curve but the main downfall to the IB is ( HOUSE NOISE )! I hear so many rattles,creeks,and pops comming from my whole house! I had expected a bit of noise but not as much as I was getting it was such a distraction I could not take it! I think some of the noise issues could have been solved by a manifold instead of a line array but I do not have space for one. I am in the proces building a deticated 10x18 theater room and will be using a Velodyne DD-18 for a sub I have heared the DD-15 and loved it!
I may have a local buyer for all 4 and will keep those interisted posted

I don't remember where he posted, but long ago he said he found a local buyer.
