I am 100% satisfied with the Acme Low B-4. It sounds fat, clear, and hi-fi at any volume level. And I do mean any volume! I am using an 800W amp to power it, and sometimes I clip the amp, and I have yet to hear distortion come from the cabinet itself. In fact, these speakers are so hi-fi that if I crank it up, grab the B-string, and shake it, the woofers pump in and out accordingly. It's rated at 750W RMS, but I've heard of people using 1200W and more and not having a problem. That's my only complaint, they require alot of power to really perform. But these cabs are now also available in 4 and 3 ohm models. Construction is top-notch, You'd really have to abuse this baby to do any real damage. The coolest thing about this cabinet, is that I can shape my tone however I want, and I don't have to worry about the annoying "WOOOOO" when i hit a resonant frequency, (the b-4 doesn't seem to have one). On stage is where I like my new cab the best, it really projects the low frequencies. It's cool to be able to cripple small children with my B, and not need an additional big-ass, loosey-goosey 18" sub to do it.
