TC Sounds is OEM Manufacturer
Pros: N/A
Cons: N/A
Response the "the baron groog" review.
TC sounds is an OEM Manufacturer. That means they make speakers for other companies. The other companies buy the speakers from TC sounds and put thier name on it. Ground Zero has been using TC sounds to make their subs since 97.
Read the Ground Zero website, it says it right on the homepage.
In 1997
The search for a new factory lead MaGmA to a German emigrant, Thilo Stompler, who had formed an American company, TC Sound. MaGmA and TC Sound cooperated closely and created a new edition of the beloved Ground Zero woofers. Aluminum cones, tireless spiders and woven-in leads helped to create a level of stability which was - up until then - unheard for subwoofers. It is still unbeaten!

Claims the chasis is "Patented custom cast"?! Looks exactly like the chasis Ground Zero have been using it in their plutonium subs for years: http://www.ground-zero-audio.com/english/05_pw15xq.htm
