Subwoofers / Speakers

I am thinking about finishing up my system with a new sub setup. I have moved from the overpowering bass to appreciating all the ranges of music. Right now i have a 12" SSD copper coil sealed. It sounds great but am wondering what other choices I could get for greater SQ and that could get lower. Would stepping up to a 15" sealed Q or Icon dig lower and sound better? Playing with a 1000rms. I want the sub to compliment and add that lower depth. Mids are Sea Excel's with Sea tweeters.

Need amazing midbass bass and mid perfromance in an SQ set up. I have an 98 EB expedition. I have a 4 channel alpine 65 watt/ channel. I have an saz 1500. I have an 880 pio. I have 4 rolls of RAAM and 10-12 yards of ensolite on the way. I will be getting some 1/0 and the big 3 done. I listen to all music. Techno ie bass mechanics, BT, bjork, vnv nation. Hip hop ie, Atmosphere, Jurassic 5, dj shadow. Classical ie vivaldi, orff carmina, lovely ludwig van. Rock ie tool, slipknot, dragonforce. Classic rock ie clapton, zepplin, hendrix. Rat pack music. I just went from Arlo guthrie to frou frou to the dobie bro's. I gets gown with everything. I listen to everything.…

I still thinking over my new system... using for Competitions and Daily Driver, ill make a box for each spending a lot of money so i have to chose wisely So far I'm looking at: (2) TC Sounds OEM 10 + Kicker 2500zx Kicker Solo X 12 + Kicker 2500zx or RD Audio 3250.1d RD Audio Super Heavyweight 10 or 12 + RD Audio 3250.1d or Memphis 4kw (2) Lightning Audio Storm X1.10.VC2 10" + RD Audio 3250.1d or Memphis 4kw any opinions? its going into a 2007 honda civic coupe

I am looking for a 12" or a 15" sub. I want it to be daily. I dont want it to require to much power beacuse i dont want to upgrade alt and run another battery. I listen to rap. I can make a box up to 6 cubic feet. I want it to get loud and boomy.

Hi, I am looking to get 2 new LSQ subs for my boat. I was planning on using the Fi Q 12's, since I have used them in my last boat and loved them, but since they are not available was wondering what you would recommend. I have read good things about the ssa icon, but was wondering how it would compare in terms of output and sound quality. I am using two individual .80 cubic foot boxes with some polyfill and already cut the holes for a 12. The amp I have wired in is a Cadence zrs 8000d which is able to put out 2000 watts rms at 1 ohm. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm looking at getting a new 18" sub right now I'm debating a hdc318 and a fi q 18. I have a zx1500 amp so looking to throw 1500 watts at it. I want a sub that will play low as well as get loud I use to run a pair if 12" re se's that did a 144 legal on tl so I want new set up to beat that any ideas I. What to get? I also have concidered a bl but they aren't in the website yet and I need to order sub by monday.

Right now i have one 12 inch w6 off an alpine mrd 1005 with the settings set very low. I am thinking about either getting another w6 and running it off that amp or getting a single 12 or 15 inch Q or BL and pushing everything to them with that amp... orrrrr getting 2 12 inch Q's with another Amp. I really cannot decide. Would the 2 w6's have better SQ but less SP then the 2 12 Q's. Any opinions and experiences with these woofers would be great. Thanks

ok, im new here, so hi i have a small car that i have an old used rockford phosgate 12" sub set up to a really old amp, and im in need of an upgrade. im kind of on a budget. i have a 2000 watt power acoustik amp picked out (with a bass knob), and now im looking for subs. im not sure if i should go with a rockford punch (stage 3?) 15", 2 rockford punch (stage 2?) 12's, or get a fi ssd 15" (probably with the bp power and copper coil)...or if you have any other sugestions in the same price range, please leave them (gotta consider my options eh?) sorry if like my terminology is off im pretty new in the whole car audio thing, but im addicted to bass and cant stop haha thanks g…

Im going to upgrade my amps with a Soundstream Reference 500sx for the sub and a Zapco Ag 360 for the components. Considering to upgrade to a single 10 or 12 for now in a sealed enclosure(i can make myself), looking for sound quality, something that makes your chest rumble at the same time. $300 shipped is my budget Rli-10, Rlp-12, 10w3v3, 12w3v3, IDQ 10 & 12, Re sex 10 &12, Fiq 10 & 12, Icon 10 & 12 these some subs had in mind. And do you think a sealed enclosure would match the type of car i have, any suggestions and opinions will help very much. Thanks alot!!!!

Hey all, Im trying to decide what I want to do for my summer sub setup. It will be going in a 1998 Acura 3.5RL, trunk system with about 4ft.^3 after displacement. I will be using around 3500 watts for either setup and dont plan on more power (not looking for number really but that would be nice). Im looking for more of a daily ground pounder with a great low end response that can be brutal when I turn it up. For tuning im planning on 31hz, I listen to mostly chopped and screwed music/r&b/old school and rap. Here are the options, any more questions just ask. Sub Options: 3-10" Fi Q's 2-12" SSA Xcons or DD 3512s 15" AA Mayhem *Electrical will be a DC Power H/O Alternato…

I have a 2 door Honda civic. Bass would be in trunk. I currently have 1 sa10 in a ported box tuned 30-31 hz powered by kicker zx 400.1 I love this setup but I want more bass My thoughts are 2 sa10s ported tuned 32-34hz powered by kicker 1000.1 Or 1 sa15 ported tuned 32-34hz powered by kicker 750.1 Which would be louder in my trunk? I guess this is kind of a cone area vs power thing .. Either way would work for me .. I've been researching stuff but haven't really found an answer so I'm hoping you guys can help me out lol. And sorry if I left out any information. Thanks for reading!

Hey guys, Recently I asked you guys about building a ported box for my MAW12. Unfortunatly the box is still in the production stages but as a temporary solution I put it in a ~35L box I already have and wow! It sounds so nice and hits every note with a lot of definition. I was previously running a Phoenix Gold Xenon sub but I actually prefer the sound of the MAW so much more. The only real complaint is SPL wise I would like a little more out of the sub. I'm running it with a Zapco 500.1 which is conservativly rated at 500W into 2 Ohms (although the birthsheet indicates much more) so I don't think power is an issue and I can push the sub to its limits. I've always been a f…

Hey, I just got a 15" BL in a a 3.6 cube box tuned to 33hz. It pounds and rumbles hardcore, but doesn't move enough air to make me happy. So I'm looking for some new setup ideas... My car is a 1996 Cutlass Supreme, so I don't have tons of trunk space. But I'm looking for something ridiculous that I can fit in here. Maybe 2 12"'s or something like that. I can proboly fit 2 15" in a sealed but I want ported So what are some ideas? I've looked at Orions and DD 9512 or maybe 2 13w7 even though there crazy overpriced. What are your opinions?

Ok heres whats on the table. Its either going to be a new FI sp4v2 18 or the beloved SSA evil 18. Sub would be dual 1 for coils. Ran on a synergy 35.1 at half ohm in a box thats 7.5 cubes tuned to 32hz. It is ran daily. Its played daily. Rarely sees full tilt unless its for demos. But im also going to start entering all the competitions i can locally and possibly slamology this year. Opinions what would net me a higher spl score between the two? If any difference at all. Sub one way or another will get ordered wednsday night so help a brother out!

I'm looking for a sub to go with my amp its a da7232 old school. Last time I used it was on a nightshade 12 v2. The setup wasn't optimal so I'm not sure on its performance. The amp is dual mono 2 ohm. Suppose to put out around 1k per channel not bridgable obviously. It will be going in the back of a suburban behind the 3rd row. So I have a decent amount of space but not unlimited. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi,I'm having a really hard time choosing a new sub. I think I've narrowed it down to these two, the new orion hcca 15.2, or the fully loaded 15" Fi BTL. It will be a daily setup in a 95' nissan hardbody. I will be running it on an orion 2500D in a 4 cubic foot ported enclosure. I would also occasionaly like to see some fairly good mic numbers. Please be honest as to which is the better sub for my application, thanks.

alright so right now i have a 15" bl and its jus not cutting it anymore. i want something more. my buddy has a 18 xcon and i like how it sounds but i dont wana get the same sub. pretty much i want something that slams like the xcon. i want it to get loooow and sound good. i need some opinions

i currently am running a 15" fi bl on a saz-1000d in a ported box facing up in a trunk. i was looking into getting either a single 10 or 12 or maybe 2 10's to replace the 15 and still run the saz-1000d so i can face the subs toward the rear and free up some trunk space since my current box pretty much uses up the whole trunk in my grand prix. all sugestions are welcome i dont really have a set budget just want something matched with my amp and was wondering what you all feel might be the best fit.

Hey guys been off the market for a while but looking into buying a new car so of course had to come back and guys your guys' opinions on systems. I should be finding myself in a B8 A4 within the next month or two and already know I'm going to want some kicking bass in the trunk. I have previously had the Fi BL 18 in a big ported box... boy did I love that thing but had to sell a few things. First off I would like to ask if anyone has ran into any issues with installing systems in the B8 A4 models. I wanted to just add a sub and an amp but wasn't sure if I was going to run into allot of issues without replacing the head unit. Second, for those of you who have gone from por…

Hello all, I'm looking to upgrade on some equipment on my 04' Jeep Grand. I've been out of the scene for a few years and need some advice on equipment. Here is my set up so far: -Alpine head unit -Front stage: Dynaudio 7" seperates, powered by PPI pc275 @ 4ohm (100w) -Rear fill: Infinity Kappa 6.5" coaxils, powered by head unit -Subwoofer: 10" Audimobile EVO vented ~40 hertz, powered by PPI pc275 @ 4ohm mono (300w) -much sound dampening Goals: Keeping the Dyn's are a must as well as the head unit. I would like to use 2-10" subs or possibly a single 12 in a smaller vented enclosure-2-2.25 cubes (space is an issue). I listen to metal and would like opinions on tuning feq…

Well I made an impulse trade today and decided to trade my Fi BL. I picked up 2 JL Audio W6's for the BL. So far they sound very good and the difference in SQ between the BL and the W6 is not even close. Overall I'm pretty happy with these subs, and I will have more to say about them when I get a box built for them. I will probably send these bad boys to PSI to get them upgraded too

I have two 15" L7s and im not very satisfied with them and im getting rid of them. I listen to all rap so i want a spl setup but i think i either want two 15" or one 18" sub. Price doesnt really matter. but i dont want to redo all my electrical because i dont plan on keeping the car i have. I was thinking maybe an icon or fi or re or mayb alpine type rs. and i would need suggestions on an amp as well. thanx

The box will be between 4.6-5 ft^3 @ 30-33 hz, it will include 2-12" subwoofers (subs up, port in front) powered by a Sundown Saz-2000d. Big Three already done, battery upgrades coming soon and it will be going in the trunk of a Saturn Ion-2003. Which subs should I choose, price is not an option but listed in least expensive on up(if you suggest a sub thats not on the list thats fine, all input is greatly appreciated): SSA Icon $275.00 Sound Splinter RL-P $295.00 Incriminator Audio Death Row $319.00

Hello everybody i am looking for a sub for my brother, we were looking at a single 12 or 15 on 2000 watts tuned to 33hertz. Id like to keep the price of the subs under $500 the subs we are considering are. Ssa xcon sundown z3 Dc xl Re audio xxx Fi sp4 We are wanting it to get loud and sound good while doing it,we planned on adding a battery and a 200 amp alt soon and big 3 for electrical. We are also open to suggestions thanks in advance everybody.

How much will the subs break my wallet for and do you think 6.416ft^3 @ 30Hz with a Sundown SAZ-2000 would be a good combination for your subwoofers?
