8ohm loud speaker

[wendigo]

Does anyone know how loud the speaker is on the 300$ converted ultrasabers hasbro sabers, that ultrasabers have taken under their wings compared to a stock hasbro speaker?

Under description it says LOUD 8ohm speaker. I'm not interested in a insane loud speaker. So was wondering if anyone got a stock hasbro, to compare with this "LOUD 8ohm" speaker?

I had my Maul converted by US and Im pretty sure the sound stayed the same. I do not think they modify the speaker or anything like that, I am pretty sure they just do the conversion to make it compatible with US blades and with an LED on the inside of the hilt. Ive got other Master Replica lightsabers and they are all about the same volume.

I'm not talking about the "mail in conversion"
But the hasbro forcefx, that ultrasabers have already converted themself with many other stuff installed, and sell for 300$. Under the description, it says "LOUD 8ohm speaker"

Those are the same thing as a mail in conversion.  The only difference is you buy the saber instead of sending them one.

ok. I Just thought it was a custom made speaker US had putted into their UltraFX. But if its the same one you can find in a hasbro, then its good, and doesnt worry me.
But dont know if master replica speaker is more poor than hasbros. You know it?

EDIT:
But then again I see a difference between a mail in conversion description and the ultraFX?

My bet would go with Hasbro being not the same as the Master Replicas. When I got my hands on a Hasbro Saber, I wasnt really impressed with the quality. Well, at least compared to the MR sabers. It was a few years back though, so not sure if they changed them around. Either way, they may be the same, but if not, I would say the MR sabers are better.

thejedimasternick: Also the sound speaker on MR is better than hasbro?

[thejedimasternick]

MR stopped making the sabers a while back so Hasbro picked up the idea to make them. In usual Hasbro mass production, quality is usually cut down a bit. I have been looking for specific info about each type of saber, but havent found them. I think they are about the same and if there is a difference, you probably cant tell. But, I would except Hasbro to have less quality than MR, though. When I did play around with the Hasbro sabers, there was a slight difference in sound quality from what I remember. It was some time back though. Either way, I would have to tip my favor to the MR ones.
