Name Change for the Apocalypse Sub.

Kevin P · « **on:** 20 Feb 2003, 07:59 pm »

We are officially changing the name for our new sub that we released as "The Apocalypse". Adire Audio has a new car audio product arriving soon and they had already requistioned the name for their product.

I don't know how we both picked the same name for a new product but it happened. So to avoid confusion we are going to have a different name for our new subwoofer.

In addition we will be offering a 12" version of the sub using a modified Brahma 12" driver in the same enclosure.

The names for these two products will be:

PMD 15" (Pressure Modulation Device 15" Tumult)

Formerly known as "The Apocalypse" and using the 15" Tumult driver.

PMD 12" (Pressure Modulation Device 12" Brahma)

Same as above but using a modified Brahma 12" in place of the Tumult.

ETA for both products is going to be around April. It is going to take us longer to get the amplifiers than originally planned and we are doing some modifications to give users the option of EQing the bottom end or not via a simple switch.

How about "Armageddon"? Just as scary, I guess

Val,

How about the "Armageddon PMD 15"?

That sounds like a department of defense classification for a nuclear weapon.

FWIW, I like the name "PMD 15 Armageddon", kinda like saying the F14 Tomcat.

I don't know guys...PMD 15 sounds like a sexually transmitted disease to me...

I do like Armagedon 12, or Armagedon 15 though.

Someone needs to come out with the "Nostradamus" subwoofer.

"This subwoofer is so fast, it knows the note is coming before it actually arrives!"

Drats!!! Kicker has a car audio sub named the Armagedon.

These car audio guys have the market cornered on names.

Keep them coming guys. Let's make this fun.

How about a $50 gift certificate for the person who comes up with the new name?

Only family appropriate names should apply.

Kevin,

Sorry, that was a joke not meant to be taken as a serious consideration.

Josh K:

No need to be sorry. I think John paid the ultimate price for his profession anyway.

WMD 15
WMD 12

Weapon of mass destruction

Somehow it seems appropriate

"THE BEHEMOTH"
"E.S.P." (earth shuddering power)

Bwanagreg · « **Reply #17 on:** 22 Feb 2003, 03:40 pm »

How about (as a follow-up to the WMD thread):

"Daisy Cutter"

Or if you want to get into a more astronomical vein:

"Pulsar"
"Big Bang"
(too bad Supernova is already taken...)

Someone at AVS started a "Flatulance Speaker" thread, but I won't go there...
