Subwoofers / Speakers

Quick question. I currently own a Kicker L7 and am looking to get a new system. I'm thinking of getting two 12' MTX 8500's with a 1,000 watt amp. I can get them for $110 each through MTX, which is why I'm really not looking at other brands though they may be a little better. I'm a metal head so I'll be putting them in a sealed enclosure. I'm told these will hit hard but will also stay clean which is what I'm going for. Does anyone own or have any experience with these subs? Am I crazy to not get them for the price? Would I be better off getting Kicker CVX's for $20 more? Any feedback would be great.

ok I have finally decided what my substage will consist of and I am looking for suggestions on if it is good or not, the setup will consist of 2 10" or 12" Diamond D6 dual 4 subs and a sundown sae1000 amp, each D6 will be seein about 500rms each, tell me what you think

On the site I see it says 900 watts but have heard some put 1500 on it and the subs are fine someone clear something up for me..

hey guys just joined up here...i have around 3k posts over at caraudio.com forums right now i have a single 18" Fi Q in 6.5 cubes ported on 1000 watts in my jeep grand cherokee ive heard tons of things about the MJ18.. i am trying really hard to decided if i should change it to 2 MJ 18's sealed in around 7 cubes with 400 watts a piece... from everyones experience what do you think will i gain any output? i am gaining cone area but loosing RMS/sub i am also going from ported to sealed because i am not sure if i could fit the MJ's ported. let me know thanks guys

I'm currently saving up money for a system but I'm kinda having a hard time deciding on a subs. My options are 4 Mach 5 MJ18's or 4 Fi SSD15's. I want a loud daily driver and I would only do local comps, maybe. They would be put in their recommended ported box and they will be run off of a SAZ-3000d when it comes out. I know the SSD's are going to be more than double the cost of the mj18's but if they're worth it I would get them. What should I do?

Sorry, but i dont know the terminology for it but it the big ol rubber ring, and it has very small scratches on it, and it is thinner in this one spot. It still has plenty of rubber, and there is no hole yet, but i am afraid it may rip when i play it loud. I dont know how it got like this, but it have happened when i moved. So should i replace now it or what until it completly rips to replace it, also which one would you recomend, and how would i install it. I have a Fi Q12, and a memphis 16-PRD 1000.1, all in a 2.25^3 cuft custom box ported to 32 hz.

in my possession yep, tomorrow, sealed box testing, and a little tl action wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

hey all, i just signed in w/ the forum. actually, what i wanna know is what size sub/s is best for my application. first of all, i plan on purchasing the Pioneer Premier TS-C720PRS comps powered by the Zed Audio Gladius Burr Brown amp. has ne1 listened to these cause i agree the front stage is the most imporant. im building a SQ system for my 02 dodge ram single cab. so, air flow is a prob. my friend says that a 12 would be too big, but does it depend on the mounting depth + box size? I love subs like the crystal cmpx2 that they only make in a 12 and 15. even if say a 12 would fit; would it be too much? he also said 2 8's is best for sq but idk how. i realize sq is subjec…

What do you guys recommend. Box is 2.2 cu.ft. tuned to 32hz. Budget max is $320 for both. Want some 10's that get real low and have lot of output.

hey guys, this is a little clip of my setup, coustic 600SE, 15" maw15 in a 2.5 cube box at @ 45hz (comp. box, lol) in my friends 95 gmc jimmy, heres a quick video: EDITTT fixxxxed http://video.tinypic.com/player.php?v=4qpkx1u

what is the differance in a Double Stack or Tripple Stack sub ??? how does it affect the preformalce ?

Well looks like UPS made it to my house this afternoon, and left me this....... Not the best pictures, I'll take more later with some side by side shots of my other drivers. It was heavier then I anticipated, sexy little thing!! Big thanks to Dalucifer for the hookup!!!!!!!! Jon

but when i push on the cone or surround it works again, i'm pretty sure it has something to with the spider monkey or whatever but i'm not sure thanks

Hey i have my amp wired to my sub, but how do i wire my sub to the box. there is an outlet that is capable of wireing it in, but i dont know how. also what should i use to attach my sub to the box.http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i217/lig...22/DSC00582.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i217/lig...22/DSC00581.jpg thanks

Hey guys, I just registered on the forum, it looks cool. I frequent some other car audio forums and I heard this place was cool so I decided to check it out. Anyways, on to the question: I currently run a DD 9515 on an American Bass 3000 watt amp. I'm thinking of switching to a more SQ based system (the DD sounds great but they are not the best at hitting the lows below 40 hz or so). So, I'm looking into maybe 2 Fi Q 15"s, but I want the new system to at least be as loud as my DD while gaining a little in the SQ department. The Qs would be run off the same amp getting 1500 each, and I would get their upgrade for power handling (forget what it's called). So whats your opin…

What was the suggested volume for the Claw Mag in a sealed box. I think it was 0.5 - 1.5, what do you guys suggest? Also what is the mounting depth for the claw mag? Thanks!

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

my friend was lookin to get some subs in his stang. his cousin suggested DD's and he found some 1510s for 140 a piece. he wants a good sounding sub and still be able to break 140. ive never personally delt with DD and was looking for some opinions on how these sound and how loud they get. thanks

ive tried 3 different ones so far and ive got 3 different results using the same dimensions. all i need is .89 cu ft

I was wondering if I can send my Adire Brahma MkIII to be fixed other than Adire themselves. I got it a while back from Low-Hz, and it got shipped blown (once I opened the smashed shipping box, I pushed in the cone and it was stiff and made scratching noises) I ended up with a Mag D2, but I still have the Brahma and I want it fixed. Thanks

My speakers are installed with RIVETS!!! Now I get to drill those out, then buy some adapter plates just to install new ones.

What is a better SQ (In your opinion) sub, Fi audio Q12, or TC-9, Tc-2000, All using memphis 16-PRD 1000.1, in a 2.25 cft ported box tuned to 32 Hz, all using the same every thing. Ok and my second question is which one will get the loudest while still maintain great Sq. Thanks because i really dont know any thing about TC

I have A/D/S 346cs Component set.... these are the 6-1/2 set (the most expensive one they have supposedly) I am looking to ditch the passive X-over and go all active... Question is power I want to get a Sundown Audio SAX-100.4 and go Bi amp on the components Rear channels midbass Front channels tweeters.. Does ANYONE know if EACH (the tweeters will see 100 watts each as the woofers will see their own 100 watts) these components handle this wattage ? The set handles a wattage of 120 watts BUT that is together as a set and i have no idea if it handles the same wattage by itself ? I know I know you are all probably saying why don't i contact the dealer... Well this is the be…
