Does anyone have these running in their cars? How long have they been in for? I read a lot of people blow them within a month. Is this true?

Built the SWS'ers in one year ago and they are still playing.
If you use them as intended (as in upgrading the OEM-woofers for better sound, they will never replace a fat Sub in the trunk) there will be no problem.
