The newer or previous generation ceramic sub. 116610 vs 126610 for example.

The “11” generation is easily distinguishable by the (contentious) fat lugged “super case”.

A few years back, guys on here made fun of the “fat” lugs. I bought one 2 years ago and the big “juicy” lugs are the best part!! Awesome 11s!!

Ya, I was around then as well, and frankly, was floored by the hate it received. I always thought the super case gave the Sub an identity back with so many homages out there.

I think it actually receives a lot more love than hate. It’s just a small number of folks, but a very noisy small number of folks and that’s all it takes.

Well at least it has a cool nickname now, maybe it will follow in the steps of the red sub!
