    Advice for a new sub and amp setup

    Thanks for all the input everyone. I think I may just go with the alpine type r 12's. has anyone heard of the Nakamichi nsx 12 subwoofers? there is a used set for sale locally at the same price as a pair of new alpine type r's.

    Advice for a new sub and amp setup

    I can only find the more mainstream brands - Alpine, Pioneer, Kicker, Jl, RF, etc. I have nothing against buying from them but it just seems like you get better subs for good prices from brands like SSA. Fore some reason places dont like to ship these smaller brands to Aus. sonic electronix would ship an alpine type r (although theres no point as I can get them in Aus anyway) but wont ship DC audio subs and shipping is $130 minimum but I have seen shipping prices of over $500 for a single sub. It seems my best option is to buy something available locally I just wanted to see i you guys had any recommendations for any of the more mainstream gear

    Advice for a new sub and amp setup

    Thanks for your input, the american bass XFL's look interesting. i can get a pair shipped to australia for $575. how reliable are these subs? because if they failed it would not be worth the cost in shipping to have them repaired. Im guessing they are worth spending $140 extra over the alpine type r's?
  4. Im looking for some recommendations of sub woofers and amplifiers. im planning to do a 2 x 12'' setup for the boot of my 63 Ford Galaxie. My aim is for it to get loud but still sound good (im pretty sure sure this is referred to as ""SQL""?) I would like to be able to run 2 incrminator audio lethal injection subs (DVC 2 ohm) ewith an alpine pdx m12 amp for each sub at 4 ohms so that it is easier on my electrical system as I only have a 100 amp alternator (however the car has no other electrics aside from powering the spark plugs and possibly headlights at night and I have a second battery in the boot). the only problem is I am in Australia and so I cant get any incriminator audio gear or any of the other small brand gear (soundqubed, ssa, etc) and so I am limited to the major brands. I am able to get the the incriminator audio death penalty but at $550 per sub after post it costs a bit more than i would like to spend. the best option i am able to find is 2 alpine type r 12s in a ported box with an alpine pdx m12 for each sub. I am not locked in to the 2 x 12'' idea or the alpine pdx m12 amps so if anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. I dont have the dimensions of my boot at the moment but i will measure it tomorrow morning. Cheers, Bass_Reflex
