sub choosing

Recommended Posts

Hey guys I am currently debating on which sub to go with for my girlfriends car. here is what i have narrowed it down to

the SA12

http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/Sundown-Audio-SA%252d12.html

or

the VVX 12

http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/VVX%252d12%22-Sub-Woofer.html

the pricing for both are similar which is good but i have yet to deal with either of those above listed subs. So i would like some input and Yes i know ppl tend to like the SA12's but has anyone used the VVX subs yet?

a little more about the build is the car is an 07 hyd elantra we are keeping it stock and just using a LOC (line out converter) for the sub stage. We will be using an orion 1200d (just in-case she wants to upgrade to 2-12inch subs down the road lol) and we want to run the sub at 2ohm so i am leaning towards a d4 sub that way if IF (that is a big if lol) we upgrade to duel 12's we will be all set lol.

so any thoughts on these two subs would be awesome and thanks in advances for any and all suggestions and comments!

They are simular subs, the VVX is the new kid on the block, but Jacob designed it, so it's can't be bad :). Either one would be a good choice. I do know the VVX are in stock and ready to ship.

Therefore it's better? Bad assumption.

From what I've seen and read, only a handful of people have the VVXs. Your best bet is to pm some of those people and ask them their opinion. Check out the Skar area for build logs and such.

Couldn't hurt.

o no i wasn't assuming anything i was just stating what it looked like and yes i know the size of the motor doesn't mean to much

and good idea on checking the build logs of these subs!

I am fairly confident that Jacob Fuller of Sundown Audio designed the subs for SKAR audio, or so i have read while doing my research. I vote for the VVX, but my opinion is a bit biased since i just received mine in the mail.

Fi 15" btl.

Jk. Of the two I'm sure either one is a great choice. Go with the one that's in stock. Get it faster.
