Problem is the BC is $2500aud each almost. The Beyma is much cheaper. The eminence is also around 3000 each. Wow that's hardcore, I bought my last 21ds115's for 380€ (600AUD), but they're up to 640€/1000AUD now, which is a price I'm sure you'd be very happy about still. It's crazy how bad it is when you don't have an official distributor on your continent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sushi Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Just in theese days i'm struggling with accepting the fact 21ds115 costs now more than 700€ .. in Italy where B&C produces it! This will be by far the most expensive build i've done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klipsch Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Inflation does that... I had a few extra drivers still in the box from 3 years back - sold them for more than I paid which was still significantly cheaper than current new price for the buyer.

chrapladm Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 They are asking for 700aud shipping from France from one dealer. The local dealer here is asking 2200 for the SW152 and 3600 for the IPAL. I was looking at getting IPAL's a few years ago but couldnt at the time. They were going for 1250 each then. Probably going to go with Eminence if QC is stable. Hate to ship something from Germany to find out there is an issue. Will see what happens towards the end of the year. If nothing else changes, then when I take a trip back home(Indiana) I will just buy a pair then and fly back with them. Even ply is almost double the cost now. 103aud for 17mm for Eco structural grade ply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahoejmfc Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 OOPS I DID IT AGAIN, and built 2 more SKRAMS making this 4 SKRAM's in my collection. I decided to do this because I upgraded my tops to Meyer Sound UPQ's and needed more BASS. Now I just need to find a amp and more money to afford it. B&C 21SW152's cost 950$ each, 200$ more than pre-covid. My QSC PL380 amp is 700$ more now and backordered. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peniku8 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 I'm gonna switch from clone amps to Powersoft soon. It means I can safely extract a few dB more out of my subs, thanks to the vast limiter selection Powersoft offers. Or consequently: bring less gear and ride closer to the edge of what the system can handle, without worrying that it's going to destroy itself. With non dsp amps (or amps with bad dsp) you always have to worry or overprovision your system, which gets annoying over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawbadman Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 Hello, I need a little assistance from you experts. I have Hog scoops loaded with 18LW2400. Would the SKRAM be suitable upgrade? As in, any advantage (SPL and low extension) using the same 18LW2400? thanks 👍🏾 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay michael Posted Sunday at 09:56 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:56 PM Final form post! I’m declaring this the finished Ionic Sound System (I hope, haha). Countless hours, more money than I’d like to admit and I couldn’t be happier. My garage is full, the trailer is maxed out, my truck is at its limit of towing capacity. Josh, you have created something really special with the Skram design. The bass heads drool over them, live music kick drums sound insane, and techno beats sound clean, punchy and dynamic…. What else could you want? The perfect all rounder sub design, bravo! Headphones in! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
