I have a set you might like, and I'd really like to sell the whole set. PM me if you are interested.

can a sound card produce an unamplified signal? allowing the speakers to do the amplification?

[xr4man]

that's the way sound cards work. they produce a low level signal and the speakers have the amps in them. you have to get a pretty high end sound card to have one that produces an amplified signal.

...and even then, it's not a very big amp onboard.

Look into T-amps for some low buck amps that hit way above their price point.

lol... those speakers are LOUD.... i have windows volume at 5%, and itunes at ~50% and they are still pretty noisey...

i have an asus xonar, d2x and its mind blowing, sound card wise. i know you will think im crazy, but a good set of headphones were discontinued 15+ years ago. my friends dad, was bass guitar in the surfari's and i really love the sound. i never thought headphones could sound soo good. sterling tl400's. they were mind blowing. it was funny i came home talking about amazing beats, and also talking about a taco shop i just tried, and that they were the best, and you could tell they thought i was high. far from it though.

Any issues with "auto shutdown" running on the pc psu? what is your amperage rating on that?

I did that for a bit, but at peak (split second) the subs would pull 25+ amp. Under-powering them would cause the amp to shutdown for a couple seconds then kick back in and resume the beats. I ended up buying a dedicated variable voltage psu with peak amp of 30 and it seems to correct it.

2 12" L7 solobarics w/2KW amp at 2ohm. It was quite impressive though. It put most high end subwoofers to shame for the price.
