Default Ulric subwoofer
Anyone see or demo this beast or at CES?

January 2012 - - Christopher Mayer's Ulric subwoofer [$14.999] under the Lycan Audio brand has all the makings to answer the above with a yes. Check out the specs. 24 x 38 x 34.5" sealed enclosure weighing 712lb/322kg. 18-inch 90lb woofer with anodized aluminum diaphragm, pure stainless steel voice coil, Titanium former, 11" spider, 3.2" peak-to-peak excursion and 7.400w of peak current handling. Anechoic response +/-1dB 17Hz - 150Hz, -3dB @ 14Hz, -10dB @ 9Hz. Max anechoic SPL 121.3dB. 90.1dB sensitivity at 60Hz. The enclosure starts out as an 850lb slab of 36-sheet Baltic Birch whose internals get routed out into a broken-wall oval to end up with side walls ranging from 4.5 to 10.5 inches thick. The front baffle is massive aluminum. Amplification is via modified ICEpower™.

I actually own a pair of these subs to use with my magico v3's, i replaced my gothams with these and it was a night and day improvement. Lets just say -2db at 10hz, unlimited output, no cabinet behavior and i can actually use my subs with my speakers with music and not lose any resolution.

Welcome Thomas

Yep they sure look massive, i was looking for reviews comparing to the gothams which are very very nice as well.

Did you sell the gothams ?


Do you have any pics of your system would be great to see the subs in a better pic than the one on the web.

Not surprised tht the woofer is awesome - lots of mass, a large driver, and no eq in a proper sized enclosure. Whenever you get a woofer that will willingly go deep in its enclosure, it always has a huge advantage over a system that needs eq.

I think the maker of the driver is TC. I have a 15" in a custom sub I built that weighs only 350 lbs.

The other sub has JL drivers.
