Subwoofers / Speakers

anyone know where I could get jl audio stuff for cheap, besides ebay

Hello everyone I am new to the forum and trying to do some research before I purchase a new sub. I am looking at getting a single 12 most likely. I am currently looking at the Fi ssd, DD 2500, Sundown sa-12, and the ssa gcon. Also what amp would you guys recommend for running one of these? Thanks in advance

I understand that a given sub in a given enclosure does not remain a "*" ohm speaker. The actual impedance is dependant on the frequencies being played. After watching the resistance dance around on my multimeter, I was wondering if there is a method to stabilize the impedance closer to what the woofer actually is and salvage some of that lost power from my amp.

I've been researching and learning about bandpass design for the past few months and have gotten to where I feel pretty confident in my designs. I have access to many speakers and a lot of wood for testing but would like to get more designs in the streets to get feedback on. If any of you have been thinking about trying out a new box for your vehicle and would like to give bandpass a try please let me know what woofers, how much power (amp model specifically), and your desired goal. Also measurements for your cargo area with details such as does the depth given allow for a rear firing port etc. Hope to get a few of you to bite, I don't think I'll let you down .

OK, well wondering what your opinion is on dedicated midbass drivers like the JL 6W0, TB 6.5, EU-700 and things of that sort? If one say had a higher frequency range say 10hz-4khz, would you use it? in a 2way or 3way setup? vented or sealed or in door. What price would you go for?

Hey guys, I am looking to get some more tweeters, I want a brighter sound than what I am getting now, I would also like to get some that are very smooth. I wanna test both sides of the spectrum. Could someone give me some decend ?brands?? to look into... I also want to replace the 5x7 that are in the rear door and put some 6x9's on the rear deck, Or perhaps 6x9's in the door and some 8" in the rear deck... Anyway could you guys give me some of your thoughts on pretty decent sounding speakers that can handle some power and crank out the volume... Thx

I decided to take pictures of my sub with the original claws. I am hoping to get this thing inverted here soon. Either way here they are for you all to enjoy.

Hello, I'm in Alberta. Been looking at a few manufacturers in the USA. I was planning on two AudioQue HDC3 18s.. but its gunna cost over $800 dollars to get the two to me, including the cost of the woofers. Mach5 is alot closer. I heard about Mach5 from a guy on CanadianCarAudio, who suggest one of the MLI-65 for a computer subwoofer. I've been looking at the MJM-18. I really do wish I had a larger budget. Original plan was 6. But the cost of the woofers themselves, wiring, alternator, batteries, and the rest of the audio gear I need for my truck... its gunna go over my budget.. I have a budget of at least 1200 for my whole stereo, but probably not more than 1500, but may…

So ive got the Fi 15 right now, and adding a sundown 1500D and an extra battery in the trunk this weekend.... But i was looking around on the for sale/wanted... and saw someone has a fi 18....and made me want to go louder before i even got my new amp in! So do you guys think i should stick with the 15 or go with the 18.... Its the 04 Lexus IS300 which are pretty small cars, and i dont want to rattle the thing apart since i just got it ... just so confused! what do yall think?

We cant decide on what to run on these bad boys (2 of them). So, I wanted to get your guys input. Electrical will be there no matter what we dicide. Mark recommands 1500 watts for daily usage. We were going towards burps w/ a sundown 3000d but now I don't know. dont really want to kill the subs and knowing my bro, he'll drive around with it cranked up. What you guys think?? All amps will be concidered except lanzar and the other suckages. thanks homies

OK. I have narrowed it down to two different ways to design my amp rack. I want your opinions. Tell me which you think looks the best or which of the 2 you would do. If you have any other ideas let me know. I am open. These are my favorite so far. The sub is a 12" SI Magnum and the amps are a PG t1200.1 and a PG t500.2. There will be crossovers for a set of SI 302 components. So here ya go. Whataya think? A:

Looking for pricing on a single DC Sound Level 4 10" would like to review it next to my XXX, and a few other 10s so i figured i'd see what kinda pricing this sub goes for and whats the best way to go about getting one. I tryed to speak with WCA Rusty at one time about the DC brand but talks were kinda inconclusive so i thoguht i would post a thread in hopes for a response.

I havent really been keeping up with the status of these drivers, so forgive my ignorance if its known already but i was wondering if you all still had some of these in stock. And if you are close to selling out. Reason being, as stated before, im going to get rid of my Magnum 12s and get a pair of the 15s. I just dont know how long it woud take me to sell my 12s. And i didnt want to end up selling my 12s, just to be too late for the 15 d2s. Also, would 900W Rms be efficient enough for a magnum 15? Im planning on keeping my Tsunami 1800, but i didnt know if the magnum 15 would be starved for more power. Plus in the future, i might sell my current amp and get two 1200W am…

can anyone get me a box design for a DC audio level 4 12"? i want high bass so around 40hz, thanks in advance. pm me or email me if you dont want to post it here

It's been awhile since I've been here working 60+ hours aweek. First off, I love my clarIon SSW1200 and have been very pleased with it. I'm looking at lowering the overall wattage in my stereo. I'm looking at the SSA subs. My retirements: SQ Want some good output, SPL. And HAS to fit in a 1.45 cf ported box that is tuned to 37Hz. I simply don't have the room for a bigger box. Let me know please, what's good for 400 wrms AND 1000 wrms both at 4 ohms.

So right now I have a Cadence ZRS-8 (site says 1500 rms @ 1 ohm, but really puts out around 18-1900 rms @ 1 ohm), and a RD Alpha V2. I want to upgrade so I can get more output, I was thinking either going a single 15" or two 12", it can't be anything that will only fit in a SUV because this will be going into a trunk of a '98 Honda Accord Coupe, my budget is $500 (i would prefer used so I can buy the sub(s) cheaper). I was thinking about a 15" Xcon, 15" BTL, two 12" Icons, or two 12" BL, I am also open to other suggestions.

The specs and design for the DC Sound Lab LFB-2k are exactly the same as the Batcap 2000 and the price is too. So my questions is, are these the same? I've been looking at The Batcap 2000 for a while, so perhaps someone may persuade me towards a DC Sound Lab.

Im going to replace the stockers in the womans jeep commander. shes got 6x9's front doors and 3.5 in dash and 6.5 rears. going to do minimum of 6x9's So im pretty set on Morels. im liking the pricing on the Maximos Maximo Any experience or reviews of these or this line up from Morel? or Morel co ax in general All speakers to be run off stock head unit, No amp for the time being maybe one later

I have a 2003 Saab 9-3 and it come with the factory 7 Speakers. These speakers are 3 3.5in on the Dash (left, center, and right). I have 6.75 in the front doors and 4in in the rear deck. I am looking at a few different brands and was wondering if you could help me out. Even more so i am looking at possibly using 2 different brands. I am looking at a Focal Access 3 way component system and i would like to place all these components into the front door. Next i am looking at either MB Quart or Boston Accoustics to place in the front dash (the 3 3.5in speakers) and i will redo the rear deck with fiberglass work and i will replace the 4in speakers with probably some sort …

I want to order a 15" D2 that come out in the middle of june but I emailed nick@SI 3 times and no responce on how I can pay besides money order. Can I pay via paypal? Also when do you guys estimate I can have a 15" in my hands by? Hopefully someone from SI will come on the boards and see this, please PM me or email me at [email protected] with answers Thanks

does anyone know if they will fit in the front doors using the 6x8 adapters? Depth is going to be the issue. I want good comps bc im not going to be able to have great subs in there. im pretty much decided on those or RF T1's

As the topic states; anyone heard both systems or have any opinions or educated guesses on these? No doubt th 327's are awesome, but I for one miss the specks, T/S params and such on them. Probably gonna go with the 327*s anyway though, pure SI all over Any advice on where to aim the mids in kickpanels, min. volume of the kicks and such?

Hello, new member here. Im a member at several other forums like others Im sure are. Anyway. When are the SI D2's gonna be available, or is SI coming out with a new line? I'm ready to buy and to be honest my choice is coming down to the 12" si d2 and an adire audio 12" brahma. Both subs will fit my application perfectly. I've heard great things about both and well I just dont know which one to get. I'm looking for awsome SQ with the ability to hit hard in a small sealed enclosure feeding it 900 watts and both the si and the brahma fit that perfectly.

The site says 1cuft per sub ...so should I go 2cuft net for both...or a lil more? lets say 2.2 cuft for both And also...I am thinking of getting a Lanzar Opti2000d. Is that a good choice for these subs? the opti will give them 350wrms (which they are rated at) @ 4ohm Thanks my first post here

Ive got 2 15'' d2's and about 7 cubes to work with if that. Should I port it or just go ahead and seal it off? Im running a jbl 1200.1 to them and its in a hatchback. I want all the spl I can get.
