Subwoofers / Speakers

I ordered my 2 15" MKIIs yesterday to replace my 2 15" Lethal Injections. They'll be here Wednesday. So excited, the specs on these seem like some of the most well designed subs I've ever seen. The response curve on these in a sealed box is almost completely flat from 20 hz up to 100 hz. I'll post an initial review shortly after I put them in my box.

On 4000-5000wrms all day everyday what sub is best and loudest between a fully loaded BTL, a DC LVL. 5, or a DD 9500

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.

I was planning on buying some Fusion comp's but I decided to go with Infinity REF6020CS for $60 Shipped. My question is just to make sure these were a good choice for comp's? Any feedback is appreciated, thanks. _George

Hi guys, Im not quite sure if I put this in the correct section but Im sorry if its not right. Anyways I found I really good deal on a W7 on Craigslist close to my house. I was going to call the guy and make a time to check out the sub. Im pretty dumb when it comes to knowing what signs of abuse are for subs but I was wanting to know in general what are some things I WANT to see as well as some things I DONT want to see (as far as whether I should buy the sub). I mean I know that holes in the subs surround or any cracks are bad but as far as the mechanics of the sub what are some signs of abuse. Hope this makes sense.

ok whell first of all i got a 2003 honda accord and i cannot decide wat kind of sub i want or amp . yea big problem but yea i just want one sub and it has to be a 12' but allso be able to pick up the low notes real real good. originally i was going to go with a Fi Btl and i 2600 hifonics amp but i started looking at other subs/amps but yea i just wanted to kno what other people would suggest to get ? and i rarely use the trunk so i dont care how much space is used, allso i want atleast 2000 watts.... so pls help me out and give me you're ideas, and thank you

Hey guys, I was looking at getting two of these and installing them in a blow through enclosure. I was wondering if any of you have had personal experience with them. What type of enclosure, volume, frequency? Also would an two orion 2500D's get the job done? Im not a competitor I just really like to slam my sounds. I love the low end pain and all input would be greatly appreciated.

Just tossing around some ideas. This isn't a "which sub is best" thread. I'm wanting peoples opinions on these subs: Pioneer Premier Champion Pro Series DB Drive Platinum Series Alpine Type-R RE Audio SEX Soundstream Reference Series Like I said, I'm just looking for peoples opinions on these.

anybody have any specs on these? a friend of mine bought some but they dont have any specs, i can find the power for them but as far as box design, i cant find any recommended enclosure sizes and i dont personally have any experience with them....anybody got anything? please let me know, thanks in advance.

Looking to buy either one of these subs price range is around 300-350$ if anyone has one for sale please help me out thanks Also looking for a american bass XD3000< same price range.... thanks

Alright guys im wanting to change up a little bit here currently im running 1 18" in a 5^3 box(after displacement) on 3K. sounds great if i wanted to put up numbers, but lows arent where i want them and tuning lower wont be the best option because i really cant use this setup in my car anyway, do to weight of extra batts and sub its self, vehicle is lowered and going on 20s. So what i want to know is which would do better in 3.5 to 5.0 cubes tuned to around 25-28hz. (3) SSA Dcons 10"s or (3) IA 187s 10"s ? I like both due to the cost, also i chose 10s so i can seal them foward. They will be ran on a SAZ-1000D and goal is brutal lows (i listen to mainly C&S). Thanks …

okay, i know a lot* of people are talking about Resonant Engineering nowadays and i could honestly say that i believe the praise that they get. however, i like being different and i always try to find that 'sleeper' brand. i wanted to know how these 2 subs compare. i'd like the most SPL possible without sacrificing much SQ. Hitting the lows hard is a must too. I plan on running 800watts one of these, ported. Anybody got experiences with both? Im kinna torn between these 2 subs and i need something to stand out from the other. any help is greatly appreciated. thankss

is there gonna be one cuz i want me some zcon 18s any know? who else is gonna go on a shopping spree

I am very curious, if anybody in this world prefabs a rear console subwoofer enclosure? to give description http://media.photobucket.com/image/rear%20center%20console%20sub%20box/ryjay78/100_0246.jpg

Hey Scott, my friend has a Sundown SAE-1000d (1000 x 1 @ 1 ohm) for power and I'm trying to figure out what subs to get. He's running 2 12w3v2's sealed and they're getting about 800 watts total. He's looking for a bit more output and better sound. Well first I was looking at dual 12 setups, and I thought about having 2 SSD's (500 watts each), 2 SE's, or 2 TC-9's. All with 500w each and sealed. A single 12" Q also came to mind. Listens to mostly rap anywhere from 30-75hz. What setup do you think would be best for his power available and more output and SQ?

As I was cleaning the garage I found an old pair of MTX ThunderCast 15's. Wondering if any of the manufacturers could recone these? 3" Voice coil 4 spoke cast basket 110 oz motor 6 bolt pattern for motor to basket Took both apart to find out one had a shifted top plate causing the coil to pinch and the other had a scratchy coil due to dirt and debris in the gap along with ripped surround. Are these even worth the time to recone? Just looking for options. Thx Curt

Guys, I have a really dumb question that I'm a little embarrassed to ask. I'm in the planning phase of doing a sealed fiberglass sub enclosure for a friend. My personal sub setup is infinite baffle. I did one sealed enclosure like 5 years ago and have since forgotten the answer to this question. When the sub manufacturer gives you the cubic footage for a sealed enclosure (in this case, .75 cu ft), does this INCLUDE or EXCLUDE the displacement of the sub itself? In other words, do I need to add to the .75 to allow for the space taken up by the magnet/etc, or do I simply make a box that has .75 cu ft of air space? If the answer is that I have to add the displacement of …

what are good IB subs other than the orions??

i was thinking for my 2006 install 3 10"s of something instead of a single 12" RL-p D2. Both will be in 2-2.5 cubes ported to 31 hz (so i need 3 10's that will be nice in a small ported box. I know for sure it will get louder with the 3 10's of good quality, but is it really worth the xtra money? and space and power aint a problem, my trunk is 42" long. list of drivers i may be using (I would prefer a black cone to match my 2006 install) no IA or ID, i want something new: RE SE 10" SI mag (Do they make 10") RL-I 10 OZ ME Arc Arc's eD 11OV2's anything you pple would reccomend.

One of my d1 SSA icons is not hitting near as hard as the other. I have them wired to 4 ohms. I followed 12volt wiring diagram for it. I tried swapping wires on one sub to change phase but it didn't really do anything, maybe helped a bit. Its been like this since I hooked them up. Any ideas?

http://forum.carstereos.org/death-penalty-news-t66069.html Just saw this over on SIN. I'm deffenelty going to be buying a new DP 12" Thought I'd share my joy with you guys.. Jon

the new SEs say SE near the surround where JL has their W7 logos on their sub and i dont like it. is there a way i can remove it with some kind of cleaner or something. want it to look perfect, so no painting or something cheesy like that thanks

I purchased the 6 $100 special they had a while back, and I'm now ready to install 4 of the 6. I have an 880HU, and an Infinity 7541a (4ch) to run my mids & highs. I need some suggestions for tweeters (4) that will go good with what I currently have. Thx guys, Vic.

Well, i have a sub in my room that gets listened too occasionally... Im not looking for anything with incredible output (only have a 100watt amp) and it doesn't have to sound the greatest either... The only time i listen to it is in the morning getting ready and its not at really high volumes cause there are other people in the house but sometimes when no one is here i turn it up pretty loud... The box it is going in is somewhere between 2.3-2.5 cf cause im not sure if the whole thing is made of 3/4" material or just the front part with the sub... It is going to be ported as well... Right now the dumb manufacturers made the port 4" across and only 5" long... Not sure what…

can anyone find the t/s parameters for these. I've looked everywhere and can't find anything. Thanks!
