Subwoofers / Speakers

Which one would be the best at 600-700W at 2Ohms in an SUV. Which one would be the overall winner on comparing the lows, distortion, mechanical noise, efficiency, how musical it is, how clean it sounds. Basically for an SQ build I'm gonna look into very soon. Other suggestions in the price range are welcome.

I have been looking at the Loaded SSA Icon, the Fi Bl, SI Mag, and a couple other subs but cannot decide on a size. I want to keep most of my cargo are in my Durango, but want to ensure that my sub will get plenty loud. Will a single 12 with 1,200-1,600 watts be up to the task of getting loud or should I sacrifice a little more room and go with a 15? Also, I would like to be able to run sealed if possible but ported will be fine, retain some SQ, while feeling it in my chest, if possible. Any help would be great.

Figured I would ask before I just ended up throwing this in the trash. Is this sub salvageable to be sold for parts? If so, whats a fair price? 20140624_232038 by riored4v, on Flickr 20140624_232112 by riored4v, on Flickr

I have an 2001 Cadillac Deville. I have a Rockford Fosgate T4001bd and am looking for subs. I have been really looking at the Fi Btl's and the RE MT's but not exactly sure what size i can get do to box size would really like to 18 as im trying to be as loud as possible and have heard good things about the 18" fi subs but not sure if the box would have tto be too big after looking at some oof meades builds but maybe some of you who have installed some setups like this could help. So i figured i would come here for advice.

what is everyones opinions on treo? obviously they have a high and low end but they seem overpriced to me...

Hi guys.. I have been working away feverishly on my car to make it seriously custom.. And its nearly there.. couple of minor touch ups needed from where there were small runs, but you can probably see how far its come from the pics I have painted it with Holographic Micro pearl flake, which shifts from orange to green or not at all depending on the light angle. Here is the car looking neutral and shiny.. http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i174/tim.../DCP_0043-2.jpg Some green... Some orange.. In this pic you can see the shift.. follow up the rear pillar from left to right, the orange is shifting into the green I have removed the Lexarse esque tails and replaced them wi…

$5 difference in price but just can't decide which will work better for me

I know that the size of my speakers is 6.5", but my question is this. I have a 1995 Honda Accord and am worried about mounting depth. I've heard that the window comes down pretty close to the back of the stock speakers and on crutchfield, I'm not sure if the speaker takes into account the mounting depth. anyone had any experience with the honda accord? or if crutchfield takes into account the mounting depth?

ok I have my decision narrowed down to a few choices, I am looking for LSQ more sq though, these will be ported and on a sundown SAZ-1500D amp, I will use my entire trunk if possible(15.7cubes) I dont have any electrical upgrades and think the only ones i'll need with 1500wrms will be a new battery and the big 3, but yeah the choices are either 2 RD sonance 15"s, or 2 RD classic 15"s, or a SI new MAG 15"s, also if you think of any other sugesstions feel free to write them down, thank you

Im trying to find out which sub setup would be the loudest. All these subs have good enough sq for me. Im trying to stupid loud but only have 6cuft to work with and my amp is a sundown 1500. I dont want to use more than that in my trunk. All of the choices below are for the max recommended ported box specs. It will go in the trunk of a tahoe. The box & port will face the back. Tell me if theres anymore info you need. I want explanations also. -1 BTL15 in a 5cuft box -2 BL12 in a 5cuft box -2 SSA Icon 12 in a 5cuft box -2 Alpine Type-Rs 15 in a 6cuft box (cheapest) I also have three other choices but lower than the max ported box specs. Im sure it wont be that big of a…

ok so running a sundown sfb 5000 on two X12's right now i have skyhigh 12 ga ofc to each sub from the amp so maybe 3 feet of wire to each d4 sub. is 12ga ok or should i use larger say 10ga i have not really hammered hard on it yet.

So i think the Icon may have run its course. Driving home a few weeks ago the sub just started making a weird noise. Every time the bass hits the sub kind of cuts out and makes a pretty harsh noise. So I finally had time to attempt to diagnose the problem. Took the sub out and inspected it and everything looked good though. No tinsels snapped, didnt appear to be a coil problem, and the sub moved in and out just fine(no coil rub). The sub looked practically brand new. Reinstalled the wiring and turned it back on and the problem still persists. Unfortunately, I didnt have a DMM to check the impedance on the coils so that will be next on the list. Anyone ever heard of a …

Hey guess i was gonna ask the people who use ssa gcons what their reviews on them are . I was also wondering when you ordered them how long it took for you to get them. Thanks Ford

My friends dad has a 10w7 that either blew up, or just ripped the whole surround. I was wondering if there is any kind of recone kit for it. jl has them but they are 300 dollars. lol

testing???

Hey guys, I'm building a box for a S8L7 sub and had a few questions. I want to make the largest reccomended sealed box which is .75 cubic feet for this sub. now, a 12x12x13.25 box with .75 thickness would give me 0.74967 cubic feet which would be dead nuts for what I want. now is the .75 reccomended volume including the volume that the sub will take up or do I have to make the box volume .75 plus the sub volume? Also when calculating the wedges, Kicker reccomends a 2x2x.75 wedge. correct me if I'm wrong, but I calculated the wedge volume to be .0017 cubic feet. Where should I put the wedges? are they required in every corner? thanx... dan

Here's my 12" again I had to stop after about 20min of this i smell'd some sort of melting plastic I think it was my amp Still waiting to put my 2nd 12 in... LOOK AT MY TRUNK my sun roof did the same as my trunk... And my sunroof was closed http://www.forgottenlegacy.net/sub3.mpg

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Rusty

I am planning on making a box that is about a max of 2.1 cubes after displacement and tuned to 33 hz and made for 3 8" subs. I am caught between 3 dc level 2 8s, sundown sa-8s v1 with copper clad aluminum coils, sound splinter rl-i8s, or maybe something else readily available that would do good on around 1000 at 2.67 ohms, 1100 watts at 2 ohm, 1600 at 1.5, or 2000 at 1. I am going to use them for daily use but may try some spl runs as well. Which would be the best for me to get? And if possible, tell me why you say your choice and possibly the easiest place to get them.

I own a Toyota RAV4 with DVD GPS Navigation system.Is it possible to add a subwoofer with NaviDVD in my car?
