i know hatches slump way harder then trunks and i was just wondering as of expierience from others people what subwoofer should i get for my car and or amplifier i want it to sound clean but knock hard please let me know thanks.......

 

It all depends on how much you want to spend. Limitless budget, I would get USAmps AX3000 and two RE XXX 12" subs. This setup for subs should run you about $3K-4K. I'm only running the AX2000 and one RE XXX 12" and it's way loud.

 

hah ha no my limit is somewhere around 5 to 8 hundred dollars i know i can get a pretty slean setup as of the subs what do you think bout a l7 solarbaric and like a 1000 watt amp

 

everyone here swears by elemental designs check them out... and look up mandos here on SL he works hard to bring us bad a$$ deals on their stuff... and if you look him up theres a link to a SL forums discount in some thread here... id go w them but ive been in motion w a local guy here who does awesome work. ive got a kenwood h/u, 2 kenwood amps, 2 jl 8", and infinity perfects in the front and kappas for the rear but i am going w their edead line to sound proof the tC i'm about half way there in buying everything

 

x2 on the RE XXX! The XXX is a monster.

 

I myself can't decide if I should go with a 10w6v2 with a 250/1 amp or go with a 10" and sub from Elemental Designs and save a few bucks. If I go JL I can get it for cost, from a friend, but that is still more than ED....hmmmm. I wish I could lay down a few grand for a sub..... (off to buy a lottery ticket.....)

 

i have one 10 inch alpine type r with 300 watts(RMS) going to it in a 2cuft ported box tuned to about 28-30 hzs and it slams and sounds awesome.

i don't think the car needs anymore than one 10 or 12 if it's in a good sized ported box. one 12 in a sealed box with a lot of power would probably be pretty loud as well.

 

i have a 400w Audiobahn (i know eww!. .lol) and a Kicker CVR12 and i love it; i do however plan to upgrade to the JL500/1 amp. the solo baric is an awesome speaker, just make sure you get a really good amp if you wanna push 1000watts. alot say they do, but they really dont. if you want 1000w you are going to pay quite a good price for one. but definately check out elemental designs... alot of people talk very good about them here on the forums.. :D

 

i know everyone here is crazy about the ED subs, but everyone I know who bought those speakers, had to send them back....at least once...good thing the guy who owns it gives a warranty...I will say this, if they don't break, they sound aight !

 

really? thanks for the heads up tripmaster :D

 

I got CDT ef-61 comps in the front with ef61-neoX coax in the rears with an JL 8.3 microsub (3 8w6's in a half moon box) all run by a directed d2205 amp for around 800 bucks and I couldent be happier with the setup for the money. I also put about 200 bucks into deadening layers through most of the car as well though.

 

forgot to mention the HU im running an eclipse avx2404 as the head unit and that was another 600 dollars.

 

of all the people I've directed toward Elemental Design, I've never had any of them have a single problem with the product... not to mention, their build quality and performance is tip top for the buck you're spending... sure, there are better products out there, but as far as performance/dollar, ED is teh win.

 

^ I have never heard of one person returning anything from them either. Im sure there is always a % of any product that has issues but I have heard many people get elm. design products and never anything short of them being great.

 

What series of speakers was this?

 

im thinkin to get an infinity basslink T ( it has one 10 inch sub+2 passive radiator)

but i dont know is it enough for me?

or maybe i can go with a custom enclosure with two 12 inch sub + one 12 inch radiator.
but i dont know 1 radiator is enough for 2 sub?

and btw i need room in my trunk thats why i need small enclosure and passive radiator



and make small box w/o the radiator will sound bad isnt it?

 

Personally, i went with 2 10" JLw3v3-4 in a custom sealed box. I have my 2 amps mounted on the back of the rear seats so i have about 1/2 of the hatch cargo left. I never really use the cargo anyways.

 

I'm eager to see the end result of the JL tC stealthbox; supposed to be a single 10w3v3 on the right side of the trunk, covered in carpeting so it isn't obvious. That plus a 250/1 is what I think I'd do if I went for a sub for the car.

 

small enclosure? 11K/Ov.2 in a .5 sealed box?

 

Or the SQ10 styrofoam replacement box
