Subwoofers / Speakers

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?

how are mb quart and boston subs? what are thy good for? do they worth to buy them? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...p;rd=1&rd=1 and http://cgi.ebay.com/Pair-Boston-Acou...QQcmdZViewItem i know they are wonderful on components but in subs?

How many watts can a BL Fully Loaded handle without any problems?

Ok guys, I am ordering subs this week. I still am not sure on which ones or one. No more than $330. Looking at 2 12s, 1 12, or 1 15 in a 06 mustang trunk. Would like to go ported. Audioque, Fi, every brand possible I have looked at and still cant decide. Anyone want to help please. I really need it. Thanks guys. Powering off a Kenwood X1R.

i havent been able to find out a measurement on how deep a xcon 18 drops down into an enclosure. the enclosure would have the sub facing up, so i need to find out the length of the sub to help determine how tall the box would need to be. any help would be appreciated.

pretty easy question here but what to know what people think. Want SQ all the way but occassionally to make peoples jaws drop even more want to crank it. One Mag 12 ported(2.2cu ft) or two Mag 12 sealed(1.45cu ft)? Power would be for now 500RMS a piece and later it would be 1200RMS per sub. Just need time to save for another amp. And it would be the new Magnum.

Ok guys, here's my situation . I'm running 1 18" btl with a saz-1500.... I'll be upgrading the sub amp soon. But I have stock speakers right now an they're not cutting it whatsoever. So I picked up an alpine pdx 100.4 for a good ass price. I also ordered a 4 channel 4 ga knukonceptz flex amp kit And I'm looking into a componet set or just speakers. Sizes that will fit in my car are 5-1/4 and 6-3/4. My price range is like 200-250 bucks for speakers. So I was looking into type r componets and my question is, could I run just a type r component set up front with crossovers and just two type r speakers w/o crossovers in the back? Also im wondering if i could run just 4 type …

Aight. You'll think I'm stupid but... Why choose the Havoc over the T2? I understand that the Havoc has more power handling and Xmax, But the T2 has a lower Qtx, higher Bl, and I know it can handle a lil over 1000. I'm pretty set on the Havoc cuz I know it will be able to handle more power, but just out of curiosity why choose the Havoc?

Ok guys thanks for any help ahead of time. I'm lookin into a 18 BTL but would like your suggestions on speakers.

Looking for a 10" DVC 4ohm.The box has .75 cu ft and a mounting depth of around 8". Space is very limited and I can't get a bigger box unless I want to take up the whole rear,which I don't want to do. Everybody has Alpine Type-R subs around here and I would like to not go that route.I'm sure that their are some brands I'm not aware of that you guys do. I would say around $150 for the sub. Got 600rms @ 2ohm to give it.

so im going to buy 2 13" jlaudio w1v2-4 and i was wondering what would be a good amp or good amps for my sub, mid, and highs, and i was wondering what would be some good door speakers the faster i know is better so please give me some ideas

i want to see what your opinions are on this: death penalty 12" or 12' bl's which can take more power and is it worth it for the money difference?

alright i couldnt figure out how to put pics on but who all that want pics email me at [email protected]

I have been reading and I haven't found a post that is exactly what I'm looking for. I have just been introduced to all these different sub woofer lines that I have never heard or seen before. And I need some opinions from people who have had experience with any woofers. I'm looking for a single setup with no more than 1500 watts. I wont say that I want sound quality since everyone has a their own definition of quality. I am looking for a very deep bass. The kind that you feel. I don't like punchy bass. Very smooth transient response is what I look for the most. And most important is a very crisp sound. I don't know if any of these wants can all be achieved at the same ti…

i have a 2.3 cube ported box made of one layer of 3/4 mdf. it has no leaks, but i notice that the box vibrates a fair amount. would it make sense to dynamat the inside? or would this kill my sq?

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.

Every wiring diagram that I have found does not include dual 1 ohm drivers. I am curoius what the ohm load would be for 3 dual 1 ohm drivers wired in series/parallel. I know it will be somewhere between 1.0 and 0.5 ohms. Thanks

I am going to use SAZ-3000D, can an a DD9518 handle that. Also if I get an 8V head unit going to help me any?

Do you guys considered the new 2011 RF P2D4 15" an overall better sub than the RE SRX 15" sub? The SRX has more linear excursion 18mm vs 12. I cannot find the Mms of either sub. The Bl of the SRX is 14 vs unknow. SPL is 87db for the SRX vs 86db. The Sd is 810 vs 894. My concern is that a sub with that much Xmax(RE) could sound louder than a sub with just 12mm but with almost 900 of Sd?? Also, the cone material of the subs: RE is Kraft pulp and the RF is Kevlar. If Kevlar is a bullet proof material is going to be a lil heavy than Kraft pulp, right? Thas why the RF Xmax is only 12mm?? It seems to me that the RF guys put a lot of technology in their new subs. The RE seems to…

So, what's the general opinion on the best sealed enclosure size for a 15" D2? Seems like a lot of people prefer 2.4cf? Also, is that before or after sub displacement, and what is the displacement of a 15" D2? Also, does polyfill do anything besides making the sub think the enclosure is larger? If that's all it does, why not just build the enclosure larger in the first place? Basically all this is the long way of asking, how big should my enclosure be??? Thanks~

I am planning on running 2 SA-8s in my mustang install (not sure if theyll be v1 or v2 yet) and I have a few enclosure questions and need a little help. Im wanting to run them in slot ported enclosures BUT they will not fire into the trunk the will fire into a space that is sealed off from the trunk but ported through the rear deck. My questions are; 1) Whats the smallest box youd reccomend for them to perform great in a daily app and still do good in a burp situation. 2) Anybody have a box design program that will map out the whole design (dimensions and all) ? They would like to use to give me a box idea.

ok i have a 2008 hyundai tiburon it has a hatchback like an eclipse I am planning on putting 1 12" RE XXX in it for streat beat but it is the 2006 model can any one help me with a choice of a amp to push it and a box for it thanks

So i just got my wife 4 kicker cvr15's and i was calculating a box and holy crap 16cu ft!!!! At least!!! And kicker says that i should tune my box at 28hz??? Someone please help me out with a box...

I've been considering getting one of these subs but I am curious, I'm hoping that they are under rated a bit. And i know it is generally a good idea to over power the subs rather than chance clipping the amp, and I know how quality they are so I must ask will I be safe running one DCON on an Alpine MRP-M650 at 600w? I know that I can always gain down the amp but does anyone think they'd be alright at nearly full power?

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.
