Subwoofers / Speakers

I'm wanting to go active with front stage. I've been shopping around Seas, Peerless, Aura, etc, and was wondering if anyonce has used the mli-65 midbasses-midrange in a IB door install. If so, looking for opinions on their performance compared to the other offerings mentioned above. Note: tweeters have been decided on either.

This is for SQ/LSQ install in a 2005 Mazda 3. Sub would compliment Alpine Type-X comps in the front getting 100 watts/side. This is directed more towards people with experience with both woofers. Looking at RL-P 12 or 15 or Brahma of same sizes. I have a Tsunami 1100DB for substage. Previously owned eD e12a and wanted something new. Is the 12a based on the same motor as the RL-P? Any comments/info would be greatly appreciated.

look what i got last night ( NIB ) never used

OK I know they are out there Im just having trouble finding them. Its driving me nuts everywhere I look there is nothing but 4 ohm. Help me out guys so I can get some sleep.

Speakers: A speaker converts electrical energy to mechanical/acoustical energy. It uses a coil of wire, which acts as an electromagnet, set inside of a magnetic gap of a permanent magnet.It is pretty simple if you think about it Voice coil motivation: When a current is passed through the coil of wire, called the voice coil, it generates a magnetic field. This electromagnet interacts with the field in the magnetic gap and the voice coil moves. The direction of movement depends on the direction of current flow through the VC. Since audio is an AC waveform, current flows in one direction and then changes polarity, the VC moves either forward or backward from its point of…

I've decided that my days of trying to rattle windows and shake off mirrors are over, plus I get tired of having to take the box out whenever I need the room. Now all I'm wanting is a little bottom end to my music. What I've been looking at is some of the cheaper, smaller subs on Parts Express. I'm trying to figure out if it would be better to try and fit a single sub up front somewhere (under the seat, etc) or do multiple subs in the back in the spare tire well? The only thing that concerns me about subs in the spare tire well is that since they are so small and so far back, there won't be much output all the way up front (maybe this thinking is wrong ). I plan on …

I have 2 mags 15" that is about to be installed in my explorer. Each mag is going to be fed by a hifonics 1500. What kind of box should I build for these two sub? How big and what should it be tuned to. I listen to rap mostly so I was thinking 35 hz but how big should I make it?

Hey at other forums i have been told to get a Rl-p15 powered by a Hifonics Brutus amp. I was wondering how 2 Alpine Type R 12s would compare to one Rl-p15? Any help?

I need a set of 5 1/4 speakers for my back doors. I have an 04 escalade in the front I was thinking kickpanels with Boston acoustic pro 60's and in the back I thought I should do some coaxials, but don't know what would be good, I have a sundown 100.4 powering them and money not more than 350 for the back speakers. give me some ideas.

Looking at a pair of Digtal Designs 2512D sub and pair of RE SE 12 which would be the loudest and cleanest in a ported box with the right power ?

Alright so my cousin just poppped his RE SE 12 the model from 06. So i got a quote from Fi. 180 bone stock He has the hifonics 1608D 1600wrms @1 ohm and the audiocontrol epicenter. But there are alotof options at Fi so wich ones would be good.Like an extra spider? he doesnt want them to pop again

I was wondering how a 15" mag sealed with 1000 watts will sounds in a 2.8 box. I was hoping to achieve a LSQ setup if that is possible. I would like to know if in a sealed setup the mag will be able to put out a fair amount of volume becasue i already know that no matter what i do to it it will sound great i am just wondering about the volume? Thanks in advance for your help.

I compared a Gcon 15 and an SA15 and found something that sparked a couple questions for me: 1. Is there any simple reason why the Gcon requires a 1.5 ft^3 bigger than the SA15 to achieve the same curve and... 2. Why is it that the Gcon's curve is not a smooth curve in the same box? I know they're different drivers and will perform differently in different conditions, but more in depth, or rather, the science behind it. Could I just not know how to use the program? lol

I have already been doing some research, but am still fairly lost. I am going with a passive setup and will be using quite a few component sets and am still unsure who is really good and such. I am looking at about $300 a set roughly. As it stands now I am kinda lookin at the one of the Rockford Fosgate power comp sets to use, but I am still really unsure. Some insight would be great.

Hello, I'm looking into purchasing a Blown SPL12, and was curious if the motor is the standard 6 bolt. I know the MJ's are different so I figured I would ask. Next question is, are the 15" 4 spoke baskets Mach5 sell's standard 6 bolt as well? Will the SPL15 recone work with the 15" 4 spoke basket? Thanks guys!

In a slightl;y better enclosure than the last. Last enclosure was the fibergalss one I built which was 1.9 cu ft tuned to around 33hz using a 4" aeroport. This is a 2.1@31hz enclosure I had fisher customs makle up for me. More port area since space wasn't as critical as the GTO, plus I will have the seat down from time to time, so minimal port noise was wanted. Thje area is 31 sq inches. This setup sounds so much better than the GTO did. A lot louder as well. Most of that has to do with the 2 different vehicles though. The GTO just isn't advantageous to a sub in the trunk. The cavalier is a bit more accommodating, just a chittier car lol. Here is a few short clips. I got…

I've been looking between an XCON 15 or two Sa-12's. XCON being in a 3.5 tuned to 33hz and the Sa-12's in a 3.5 tuned to 35 hz. Either choice has the same power Saz-1500dv.2. I'm just having a tough time deciding. Both choices are around the same price. I just want an average daily system that gets very loud and sounds good doing it. It will be going in a trunk car though. Any input/personal experiences with either of the subs are greatly appreciated.

I have a ED Nine.1 and I need help deciding on what subs to get. The amp supposed to do 1200w RMS @1ohm 12.5v. I have a MB Quart 4125 powering a pair of ID CTX65cs comps and a pair of ID CTX65 coaxials. This is all going into a '09 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I listen to all types of music. I want something to get low and loud. Would 2 Icon 12's be a better choice than 1 Xcon 12 with that amp?

Hi from Bulgaria, everyone. At first I was going to buy one of the new Nightshades, but realized there will be some months till I get the money and I won't have any other sub to bang in my trunk. So I am looking for something cheap till I get the money for the NSv2. I am very tempted at the ongoing pre-order of Sundown Audio SA-8. I can get it here to BG for around the same price as Alpine Type-R for instance. My goal is a cheap sub that will bang loud and good for it's money. Sound Pressure ... around 35 Hz. What are your thoughts?

From my post on the meca official team smoke xtreme thread Guys i would officially like to welcome Stereo Integrity on board with Team Smoke Xtreme for the 2006 season. Nick is gracious enough to give us great drivers, unlimited tech support, as many recones as needed, and all and all a nice friend in the industry. All team members shoudl consider switching to these drivers since Nick is going to try and support our ENTIRE team. Members of the team are not required to use these subs, but are ENCOURAGED to. Mr. Lemmons is a great guy to deal with and is decently close to the core of the team. He is located in Mooresville, NC. I personally drove to his houe to pick up my 12…

Best 10" that'll work in .8 with 7.5 mounting depth? $600 is for both amp & sub. This is gonna be for an sq system in a g35 coupe so gobs of output isn't a requirement.

Hey fellas! So I got a new ride and designing a SQ(L) setup as I need to make room for a baby and I have limited space. Here are the details: 2011 Chevy Malibu LTZ Source - Alpine IVE-W535HD Fronts - Kicker QS65.2 components Rears - Kicker KS693 Amp - Kicker IX1000.5 (5 channel. 65x4 & 500.1) Sub(s) - TBD! I need help choosing a sub! I have 500-600 watts rms to work with and going to be doing a sealed enclosure no larger than 1.5cf. Here is what I've narrowed to down to, any and all advice appreciated! I can have them all for between $240-350 each: JL 12W7v3 ID IDQ12v3 ARC Black 12 JBL GTI MkII Boston G512.4 SSA GCON I am looking for the most output I can ac…

My enclosure engineer keeps on insisting to make it 1.25 cubes. Couldn't break every1's advise here to go 1.5 after displacement. WTF is he recommending 1.25? This fukker is also not concerned about the thickness of the MDF, I cant remember how many times I reminded him to make it 3/4" inch. How thick are they usually? If it requires trimming to make it 3/4" of an inch, that f00ker probably wont even bother. =\ I think Ill get another one from Gnome. What is his site's URL?
