okay i am a newb so lets keep any comments about me being a dumbass to a minimum. i have a 1991 mercedes benz s-class its a large car. i only have room for either 2 12"s or a 15". Any recommendations on what i should get. i can spend roughly 1000 for the sub/amp combination. i like the 15" SSA xCon or maybe 2 kicker l7 12's. i did like the Fi 15" Q but i read some reviews where people had durability issues. I am open minded to anything. Sound quality is somewhat important as i hate my friends 15" power accoustick P3. it is horrible. thanks

Why don't you just go with a set of Q's or two twelve inch Bl's i have a fifteen and its only getting 800-900 watts rms and it absolutely pounds like no other, it only ran me around.. 320 or so? for a fifteen shipped to my door, but also here are some questions.

Are you building your box yourself?

sealed vs ported

do you have the electrical system to support a big stereo

are you looking for just musical bass or over the top bass?

if you're just looking for some nice bass you could go with a nice ten.

Two ICON 12's & Sundown Audio SAZ-1500D cost $990 right now. Great package deal right there with all the SQ you'll ever need. FI is also a great product, either one will get the job done for you.

I Second Mark's Statement, I May Be A Fi Diehard, But That Damn Icon 10" I Put In My Dad's Jeep pucking Rapes And Sounds Great Doing It.

I have oxned both a Bl and now a Xcon, both 18's. I personally like the sq of the XCON over the BL, also it tends to get a shit ton louder, and sound much much better doing it.

If you like a low note ground pounding sub I would recommend the XCON, or the icon. Like Mark said they have a great deal going on with 2 12"s and a saz 1500d.

i will buy a yellow top in addition to the stock mercedes-benz battery up front however i will not mess with the alternator. i would like musical bass from a setup i can own for awhile worry free. i will not be building the box myself and i have yet to decide if i should go with sealed or ported, any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Go with the xcons, ported, tune low, you wont be sorry. The xcon is very flat and very musical.

Yellow top in the trunk with a 1500D and I you wont need to worry about your alt.
