Subwoofers / Speakers

Whats up fellas, I wanted to get some input on what you guys think. I have 4 Sundown audio SD-10's that will be pushed bey a Planet audio BB2400.1. After doing some measurements I dont think I can get optimal box volume for all 4 in a ported box so I was thinking of dropping it to 3 of them in a ported enclosure, that would raise the impedence a bit so I figure about 1500 watts. Or I can run all 4 of them in a sealed box and give them about 2K watts. I am more concerned with the lower frequencys which is why I am thinking of giving up cone area and wattage to be able to tune lower. Do you guys think with the extra cone area and wattage that I could get as much low frequen…

I'm bored at work and been looking around and found shocker audio. It seems they no longer exist. the sub looks bad ass and wanted to know a little more about this. So if you know anything please share.

trying to make a decision but wanted some input from the SEAS whores from here to help aid in it. to W18E-001 (E018) 7" magnesium cone woofer or W18EX-001 (E017) 7" magnesium cone woofer, this is the question. building a 3 way front stage and have narrowed it down to these 2. any input to the sound difference would be appreciated, these will be in a door pod and can be sealed off from the other drivers obviously. looking for clarity here as this is being designed as an LSQ system. in advance all comments are appreciated guys and thanks

Wondering which would get lower and deeper (not necessarily louder) on a daily basis. I listen to strictly Decaf and chopped & screwed music in the high 20Hz range and low 30's

I've finally decided to go with a single 15 ported setup...bout 4cu.ft.tuned to bout 33hz Ive got canidates in mind...but havent looked every where... Canidates Audioque HDC3 FI SSD (w/copper coil) or Q(stock) Kicker CVX Alpine Type R TC-Sounds tc-9 I want to power it with this: Hifonics BXi 1206D 2400-Watt Brutus Mono Amplifier http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=16367 But I also looked at these... MB Quart RWE-352 - MB Quart Reference Series 15" 1400 Watt DVC Subwoofer http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?...roduct_ID=3416 If I went with those, I would get two and throw them in a sealed box. Ive heard that MB Quart makes pretty good speakers...And Ive also…

Hey, First of all let me say that i am new to this forum, and i have been doing as much reading as possible. This Forum is soooooooo helpful, props to whoevers in charge. My first subs that i owned were Rockford Fosgate p2's, i had them running with a Rockford Fosgate amp as well. I made the huge mistake like everyone else, and i decided to go through best buy about 2 years ago to get my subs etc.... Dont get me wrong, they have nice stuff, its decent, but not what im looking for right now. I have a 2004 Extended cab silverado, and i want to put two 12's under the back bench seat ( if possible ). If not, i might have to work with something else. I have heard a lot o…

OK so subsonic filter how many hz do you guys set below tunning?

ok so I'm trying to decide between the RE se 10's or FI ssd 10's using a fosgate 100001bd 1400 watts rms @1 ohm they will go in a sealed box in my 03 silverado ext cab under rear seat firing forward I have heard the RE subs but have not heard the FI but i here good things so any ideas? the box will be 2.4 cu. ft. total so 1.2 per sub

in your (non biased) opinion, which sub would you say, in there optimal enslure w/at least rms power running to them, would sound better/be louder? a few guys on CA.com i was talking to said that i should get the HDC's over the BL's and that they are louder. he said the HDC's are more comparable to the BTL's....of course i have my doubts but i want to know what you guys think thanks

I was looking at the specs of both subs and they appear similar. I was wondering if these subs are in the same ballpark in terms of goals and design. This is for a daily groundpounder on 1500 watts in a ported box(1.2 cubes) tuned to 33hz and LP at 80hz with subsonic at 30hz/24db. Wondering what the pros and cons are and peoples opinions on which sub is louder and which is cleaner unless either sub is just better in both aspects for this type of set-up. Your opinions are highly valued and appriciated even from those who have no direct experience with both to compare. I listen to mainly house and trance music. Thanks

this is a really stupit question can i cause harm to my sub for tuning it to 25 hertz?

So Im about to change my factory speakers to a 2-way component set. Right now, I will be running passive (HU->crossover from components->woofer/tweeter) but in the future, I plan on adding a Sundown 100.4D Will this be right? HU->Amplifier->Crossover from components->woofer/tweeter) Also, is this considered active? The reason why I ask is because I plan on buying Morel Hybrid Ovation II components, and the dealer Im getting it from told me they put a lot of work in the crossovers. At that price, I wouldn't like to put those crossovers in a box in the closet, but I wont use them if you guys tell me its better not to have them if there is an amplifier already…

Hi, can someone tell me which components to get in the $100 range.. I want that clean crisp highs if possible for that price.. thanks..

What are the advantages of running 1 8" mid versus running 2 6.5" mids up front? I'm looking for clarity, loudness, and width (of the stage I guess? I don't really listen to much that requires great staging). I can do the work to fit the 8 behind the panel but it will be up high. If I do 2 6.5's then one will be in the door and one in the kick. One 6.5 isn't giving me the volume I need...well it is, but only when it's crossed at 120+hz which sucks. Doors will treated and sealed minimally (Not keeping the vehicle for long.) Right now I'm not looking at any drivers in particular. I'd rather use passive sets (using only one tweet) because I don't have good enough x/o's. I ha…

SO I go to investigate and she's crying. "Feed me," she says. "I cannot survive on these measly shreds of RF garnishing." This brings tears to my eyes! I must find some food or baby will suffer in agony. My hunt begins! I search for months for a solution to her starvation and she grows weary every day. Then one day I stumble upon the tax man. "Here some money from Uncle Sam my friend. Take this now as I will be collecting more next year." Thanks Uncle Sam! What would I do without you??! So I run home in the excitement, eager to please my baby and feed her so she can grow to be a Strong and Powerful Mag. A couple weeks pass and the little one has been anticip…

Anyone know when the 15's are due in? Can't wait to get my hands on another one, last I heard they would be ready to go early or mid June? Anyone?

so, my first set of aftermarket speakers were a set of carbon fiber Bravox comps. i blew both tweeters and one woofer. (had them bridged on my boss-rev665 so double rms. and not tuned. also had bass boost on. and gain was over 3/4. lol. (obviously before i knew anything) Lear From Your Mistakes! so i decided to have some fun. took it pretty well for i few seconds. Gain AND Bass boost were AL THE WAY UP! enjoy. (click photo)

I had a Kicker solo X 12 which I just sold and will be looking to get 3 of the New Lanzar Optidrive 12's... I know Kicker has a great reputation but Lanzar OPTI's Pound.... Is this a good move?

Are there any reviews for the Hybrid Audio products? I was planning on having a set of SEAS Lotus Reference components installed at the end of this month and was wondering how the Hybrid Audio drivers compare. I was planning on running the RW165 mids in kick panels and having the RT27F tweeters molded into my A-pillars. I'm open to the idea of a 3-way system, particularly The Legatia Pro L1 tweeter, L4 mid, and either the L6 or L8 midbass. I'll be honest with you and say that I've demoed the SEAS and I personally thought they were the king of components so I'm wondering how the Hybrid Audio's compare. As far as amplification, I was originally going to run a Sundown S…

booth are terrific subs in my opinion. are they in the same class ?do they have a particular application?

and i saw a 12" si magnum for 150 canadian there..but it looked like the dustcap was glued back on....and i know these retail for over 700 canadian new..i wanted to buy it lol even though i didnt have nothing to power it with yet

I have got two '08 L7 12'' coming in tomorrow. I have i built an enclosure that is 4.6 cubes after sub and port displacement, the port is 14.5''H, 4.5''W, and 17 inches deep. i figured the tuning to be about 37-39 Hz is this correct? Did i build a proper sub enclosure for these two? I am pretty sure that i am above the minimum airspace requirement for two of these drivers. i want it to get pretty damn loud but still be musical, i plan on using this for daily as well as a few of the local shows around here this year I dont want to roll up to these shows looking like i havent got a clue(because i dont). At first im gonna be running the pair on 1000 watts RMS, but when i ge…
