Subwoofers / Speakers

I have a SS xxx 15 with a psi recone. the surround ripped does any one know where i can just get the surrounds ?

Does anyone know anything about these brands ? FOCAL 690-CV1 6x9's or the Mmats CX 69 ? will they be better than my Memphis Mseries 6x9's

I have come down to these 3 sets of comps. Does anyone have any opinions and experiences with any of these components?

i know the recommended power is 100rms but are these speakers still thirsty for more?

does anyone know if focal components are good?

Well we had our Focal rep come into the shop today, and he was telling me an another co worker about all the new Focal stuff. I happened to ask him about the Focal Grande Utopia Em and he told me that they are the best sounding speakers he has ever heard. With the 180K pricetag for a pair, I would hope they sound that good. But here's my question, the subwoofer uses some new technology where it doesn't use a permanent magnet at all, but instead uses a huge winding of wire as a magnet. What advantages does this yield? I though I heard someone say something about controlling the force of the motor also. I just want someone to simplify the function of this.

So I was looking into the focal k2p comps for my front stage. Pros? cons? likes and dislikes?

the Pro60's vs the new 08 focals not sure what there called but there around 500$ and they are not yellow they have the new technology and are graphite in color?

Anyone have experience with them? Focusing on sounding good. Been looking mainly at the 33 V1 and the 30 A1. Opinions?

I'm extremely interested in a pair of the focal 165 a1s and I went to listen to them at a shop and I was completely blown away... at first. The song started out I gave the guy my own test CD and the mids and mid-bass was awesome it sounded really really good. I have limited experience with listening to different speakers but this is undoubtedly really nice sounding. all things must come to an end however and a sample came in that was very high pitched and those tweeters are very bright. I like a somewhat aggressive tweeter but this was over the top. I still want to get the focals but I'm wondering about changing the tweeter. How would this be done with issues such as comp…

my budget for sub(s) is $400, I've been looking at either getting two sa-12s, two dcon 12"s, or a single xcon 12" My goal is to get loud, (don't want it for burps and competition tho) enclosure will be ported, I have plenty of room (3-6.5cubes) I'm assuming two sa-12"s would be louder than the dcons and louder then a single xcon. But then again I could be full of s***. I'll be powering it with an sae-1200d (1200watts). What would you do? I know the xcon is an amazing sub, but I also figure there is no replacement for displacement AND i'll only be running 1200watts so it won't be at its full potential. P.S: the only subs I have heard besides mine (10" type-r...) is two r…

I know a lot of you have been VERY VERY eager about the status on the up coming batch of 15's and the overall status on the potential for 8" drivers in the works....

This is just a reminder that you guys don't NEED to post threads or email SI all the time about stuff...as soon as we know...you'll know...I am even more excited to hear news..and I'm doing my best to make sure you guys hear it ver…

I purchased an Audiocontrol Epic 160 in Dec. of 2003 to test the original D2 12's in my Jeep Grand Cherokee. It was incredible being able to put in heart pounding bass into what normally wouldn't have any bass. Anyway I had big SPL plans for the Jeep until the ride was officially not mine anymore. Long story short I purchased a lot of great items to help increase your SPL and now I have changed my focus for my new car, '99 Infinity G20T, to LSQ. So I have an Epic 160 used for approx. 3 weeks and a brand new 0 Awg amp kit fully complete but opened because I wanted to feel the difference between my little 4 Awg to the Beasty 0. If anyone is interested reply back with y…

my friend is looking to build a box and install a sub under the back seat. we don't have the dimensions of our space but we were wondering what a good sub would be that is 5" or less deep. were thinking one 10" or two 8" subs in a sealed box. or one 8" in a ported box. any recommendations would be very appreciated. we will be able to fit a 1cuft box according to the stealth box that is sold on crutchfield.

hi, i am helping a freind install re audio xxx comps and i took off the tag that said if the red or the blue was the postive and i am wondering if anyone can tell me how to figure out which is which and or if someone has a set that might know.

Anybody know of any shops in Fort Wayne, or surrounding cities that does subwoofer repairs? I can't seem to find one.

alright guys other than the huge price margin on the T1 and T2 subs,why everybody dislike fosgate subs

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?

I have an opportunity to buy TWO practically new T2d412 in box for 600. I know they go for over 500 new not including the box. I also know they are spl subs. My question is a. Is there any reason I shouldnt get them b. Has anyone had experience with the newer model t2s and if so are they musical AT ALL?

i havent seen this vid on here yet.so if it is and i didnt catch it sorry but if not its a kool lil vid of the spl sub in action 2aO2Z-DP6qQ

Same motor and soft part assembly. The difference is cone size and basket. Same amount of power is applied and the same size/tuning enclosure. What I am noticing in winISD is that the two 15" are more efficient and the four 12" have a less than 3db higher output. Is it fair to say that the output difference between four 12" and two 15" are negligible with same power and enclosure? FYI I compared four 12" xcons and two 15" xcons in 8^3ft tubed to 32hz. I also compared four 15" xcons and two 18" xcons in 15^3ft tuned to 32hz. The 15" & 18" comparison gave the same results as mentioned above.

I have about $300 budget. Thats maximum... Including me making a box. I was thinking 4 infinity refrence 8" subs... Or 2 10" obsidian audio subs. Or like one ssd 15... Idek if i could fit any of this in my truck where i want it. The back seat behind the drivers seat.. So i still need 2 seats in the back aswell. Its a toyota tundra access cab. I hopefully an getting a hifonics brz.1800 on monday for a bday presant... If not iv been wastig all my time thinking and hoping for it. But id like to try and fit any of those in back there for some hard hitting bass.. I was told a price for the obsidians and it seemed fair.. Im kind of leaning toward them. I feel that the 8s would …
