Subwoofers / Speakers

I am probably about to purchase a new 12" or pair of 12"s. What can you guys tell me about the si's and their ability to function well in sealed boxes? Thanks in advance!! Btw i've got an ed nine.1 for power and i currently have a single 12" IDMax, looking for more output without losing sq.

I don't know what to put in my dash, it has stock 4x6 speakers, I want to try to do a 4" comp set or something like that, or should I just replace with coaxs? I know they make plate speakers but I don't know which way to go. I want a good clean sounding front stage with alot of bass, and crisp clean highs too. Help please.

I was wondering if any of you guys know if any of the Ascendant Audio subs can top JL's 13W7.

Hey guys I was wondering what's the difference between tweeters and image tweeters? I'm just curious. Thanks for the answers.

I have a few pics just called D2. Is this a Stereo Integrity D2?

Does anyone know why Rf doesn't recone their subs? I am talking about the T series.

yep...picked up an old eclipse ti 12...needs reconed. any help? not for sure what i wanna do with it...any ideas? lemme know... and yeah, it's a double post for those who don't go to the soundsplinter forum..lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

This thing was already in a box when i got it so i decided to just throw it in the car and see how it sounded. The enclosure it's in is pretty beefy but it's sealed, which i know wasn't recommended for that sub. Probably about .85 cubes if i had to guess. Anyway, wired in parallel for final 2 ohm load at the amp. Amp is MTX 81000d rated 1000wrms @ 12.5v and i believe it should be pushing around rated power. Anyway the excursion on this thing is SICK, kinda moves like the old eclipse TI,s. However, I am disappointed in it's output. I have had several single sub setups in different cars, ported and sealed, and honestly, it doesn't seem any louder then a kicker comp 12 w/ a…

My current set up. Alpine CDA-9886 Big 3 0 gaude kicker hyperflex EA H/O alternator 200 amps 0 gauge run (sub) 4 gauge run (mids and highs amp) stock battery up front 2 Deka 9A31 in trunk Sub amp is a GP 3000D My sub are Fi Bl 12'' Sub box is Fishercustom slot port 4 cu. @ 32hz sub box max. that will fit in my trunk. 38w 14h 22d in. Car is a 95 cutlass ciera My Fi Bl 12'' sound good in that box, but I want to get louder, so with that said I want to go with 3 10'' Icon 10'' IXl 10'' are Fi Bl 10'' which would be louder on this set up, and still sound descent max size 38w 14h 22d slot port I like old school R&B, and some rap (clean ) Thanks in advance for any h…

I've had this sub for a few years just sitting in the garage. It has a hole in the rubber surround and one set of terminals broke off. I've attempted to fix both things, but I'm not sure about the enclosure size. It seems that the sub is so old that I can't find any info on it. I wanted to try and make a ported box, but now I'm kind of thinking on just making something around .75ft^3

Hello all fellow bass heads Like the title says I need help, getting my recones for my subs but I failed to order the glue, (I ass umed it came with the KIT) but was wrong. is there any thing I can use for recones in place of the ca glue that works as well, I have a show in 2 weeks and im afraid I wont be ready in time (break in the subs) Thanks

So after finding out I burned up one of my zv4 leads (probably because of clipping), I decided to throw my mayhem back in. Voltage was dropping to 14.0 from 14.9 max, so I knew something was wrong. Mayhem was working fine when I took it out a year ago when I got the zv4. They were ordered with D2 coils. How did this happen? I cant imagine it was from clipping as well.

I got a question for you guys that have heard walled subs. I got two IA DP 21s now in my truck where my back seat was facing up ports up. Sounds real good except my poor back wall flexing. I never seen a walled vehicle in person is that the way to go? If they sound good I'd be down to do it over?

Hey I have a 400wrms x2 amp and I'm picking up a set of Diamond Audio D971 comps. This is a dumb question most likely but the constant rating is 200wrms and the max is 400wrms for the comps. If I throw them on my orion amp pushing 400 wrms into each channel with the gains set low do you guys think they could deal with it? I'd hate to buy another amp. I can run them off of 100wrms each but then I'm not feeding them enough power....its a catch 22. what would you do?

I'm looking for a recone for a juggernaut 12. I don't want to send it back to mmats I don't like there tensel leads they break too easy what other recones can I use for it

okay now im stuck between the two....a fully loaded 12" btl or a 12" nightshade. which would you guys choose, im sure they are both great woofers.

I was thinking about building a box, but just found one for my Mach 5 MAW-12 sub but am not sure how the sub will sound with the specs on the "Bassworx Box" http://hamilton.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAd?AdId=11...EPLY_TO_AD_SENT. The specs for a MAW-12 recommended are 1.8cf for a ported box, and this Bassworx box seems to be a little bigger. It looks like a good price, and would save me the hassle of building my first box. What might it do for the sound of the sub? The perameters for the MAW-12 can be found on the Mach5 website http://www.mach5audio.com/index-2.html I have space for it in my 1995 Impala SS and would be running it on a 250rms 5th channel MTX 895.5. I was looking to…

Actually 2 sets. Budget approx $400 for both sets. They'll both be powered off a Sundown sax100.4...the front set getting full power. The rear set will be set low, so power handling isn't an issue there. They don't need to match, but the front set needs to be loud. They need to be able to handle the sine sweeps of bass music. I burnt out a couple sets of tweets with bass music. Apparantly, I need some components that are tougher than infinity reference's. What would you recommend? Should I get $100 rears and $300 fronts? or two sets of $200 for front and back? Should I buy a low end set of Rainbows or CDT's...or a higherend set of Kickers or Alpines?

I drive a Chevy Silverado 2002 extended cab, and I have the box built for 2 sundown X15s that sundown recommends on their website. My question is, will anything be effected if I put the subs on top facing the roof and the port in the middle facing my windshield. Or should I have it subs up, port up? I'm just wondering if there is a difference and what would be best. Thanks

I just want to publically thank Nick for fixing my Mag(original 'claw' basket),not only did he fix it but he also did it in timely fashion.The man answered all my emails promptly w/o hesitation, I tip my hat to you,SIR.Man I cant wait to get her back ,this week I'm on vacation so I gonna pull out the damn rear speakers that keep rattling with all the bass in the trunk.Again thanks SI,thanks Nick,job well done........oh,BTW I'll be alittle more carefull next time!

I am looking for a 15in Mag, 2nd Gen, in good shape. I would post this in the sale forum but i think there is a problem with it. I may comsider a newer one but i think its out of my budget. Also should i go one 15in Mag or two 12in Dayton MKIII?

Hi, Am interested in replacing 2x 10" sub in a Nuance N-200 box. The box size is 12" x 23" x 15" My primary interest is SQ. I also want deep bass. I have no idea if the dabers would sound good in the box below. Thanks in advance Here's the underside of the box...

I've been doing some research online, and I know a handful of people who manufacture and sell subwoofers frequent this forum. So was hoping I could get some info on good ways to approach building my own custom subwoofer. My goal: Purchase all the individual components of a subwoofer (motor, basket, voice coil, cone...etc) and build something nobody else has. My issue: Other than a few sites selling certain parts, or trying to pickup blown subs/recone kits, I can't find a reliable source for buying the individual pieces. This makes it very difficult to piece together multiple subs that are the same. Does anyone know of good places to pickup parts? I kno…

Im tryin to see how come the mag will be to 2 12" pioneer ts w3000spl's. the mag will b in a 2 cubic box tuned to 32 running off a sundown saz1500d the pioneers are in a jeep cherokee in a 3.5 cubic box tuned to 36 running off a crunch 1500 Just tryin to see if the mag will be able to compare to the poneers. Which ones would get louder and lower and better sq?

My 96 Saturn SL2 has no trunk so I was going to move to infinite baffle to gain trunk space. I currently run a Zapco Ag650 pushing Image Dynamic HLCDs, 6.5s, and a pair of Aura Bass shaker Pros under the seats. My subs are currently Orion HCCA 12D4s driven by a Mark Antony MK2500D and according to my amperage draw and ohms law it tops out around 1600 watts. I may be reducing equipment to cut down on the room taken up. My wife has children and we are expecting twins. I have an Audiocontrol Epic-160 in the dash to dial down the bass on the subs. I am hoping the bass shakers give me the bump I want to feel without being to much for the family. I am considering either using a…
