Brett DiMichele · 07-29-2003, 11:34 PM

I was surfing through Strykes web forum checking out the
latest info on the Line Array project when I came across
John's post on this!

Models like a Shiva... Looks like a Shiva.. And priced RIGHT!

Dang if I didn't have an AV-12 and another soon on the way
I would go for these little beasts!

Here's the post with all the Graphs and TS Specs

Not sure if John was ready to announce these or not.. So
John if I posted the info and you have a problem with it
just let me know and I will delete the post!

Pretty nice. Extremely similar to the 12" Dayton DVC from PE, which is on sale periodically for $85.

Jack Gilvey ? you're still here ?. Man, after two years of absence I thought things might change here... I guess not. Same old Shiva, same old Jack.

Jack has progressed since then.. He now has DPL12's, AV-12's
and Shivas

All made in china I might add

Not that i have anything against Chinese products. My tempest is made in china. All i'm saying, we are comparing apples to oranges, IMO.

How are we comparing Apples to Oranges?

A Sub is a Sub they are meant to do one thing.. Make Bass.

The Shiva, Dayton and the new Stryke SA12 all compare very
favorably and all are Budget Priced for those who may not
have $180-$350.00 to shell out for one driver.

How so? Stick to comparing the actual drivers.

Made in China? That's interesting since there's an American flag and "Made in USA" on the side of the box. IIRC, the Shiva, Tempest, DVC 12 and 15, are made by Eminence, which is a US company. The AV12 is made by TC Sounds, also in the US. Sure some of the parts are made in China but so what? This is akin to people that will only buy "American Made" cars. Last time I checked Toyota and Mercedes have plants in the US. So what does "American Made" mean these days?

Kyle Richardson · 07-31-2003, 08:19 AM

Just as Brian points out, they are made in the USA at Eminence just like the Tempest.
