The only dumb question is the one that's not asked. And Krill if they are dual 8ohm he wants one that does 600 watts @ 2ohms not 1
Everyone keeps pushing me away from the AP15001d because its power hungry and i can't afford a new battery or a better alt, i will do the big 3 when i buy a new amp though. Is this amp sufficient enough for my subs? It's in the right price range for my budget as well. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_22705_Hifonics+HFi1000D.html, sorry didnt see you post before me =\
-
Thx for the help guys, they are eclipse 87121.8 600 watt peak 300 watt rms @ 8 ohms and they are SVC. My avatar are the subs, they have mounting holes on the basket for 2 more terminals but they are SVC.
-
I am going to get flamed, but i want to invest my money into something good. My question is if im running 2 12"s each are rated at 300w RMS @ 8ohms, i would need an amp that can do 600w x 1 @ 4ohms or 300w x 1 @ 4ohms?
-
We got this one coming up.
Pretty sure there is quite a few Cali cars going too.

About 310 miles from me but if i don't have anything going on i may come down. Thanks for the info man.
-
Is there any car shows, bass comps in washington state? I would love to hear a system that is 140+ DB's never had the chance to hear one.
-
The refurbished Sundown 1200Dv1 are all gone now. They had 5 yesterday, 2 earlier this afternoon, and now they are gone.
Thx for the heads up man.
-
well they actually have a audio shop... i can give you the phone number to him?
Where is the shop located man? I dont wanna pay an ass load for shipping haha i have about 175-185$ max right now and that is pushing it.
-
best bang for your buck is to buy my saturn!!!!!
:santa: :santa:Gonna start a build in mine soon, need to sell some stuff to get $$$ for box supplies and order myself a new amp. Not going to be anything special, probably just 2 12"s, maybe the big 3 and a decent amp. Later down the road i will put some second skin or dampner in my trunk and what not... this build will take A WHILE since i will be starting school soon and hopefully getting a full time job.
-
shit i know someone with a 1000 watt amp for like 150 and a 1600 watt amp for 165 and the brand is db drive brand new
And who is this person? send them my way.
-
Wow I'm going to shoot myself if I see another SMD member asking how good this amp is
This amp will put out rated power but it's dirty power and made with SHITTY components. I would suggest an Audioque 1200d instead.

Hope this helps
Sorry man just trying to get as much advice as possible, ill look into that audioque I'm not sure i can afford it though.
*EDIT* 250$ is a little outta my price range right now, unless i get a raise at work or find a new job lol

http://www.cardiscountstereos.com/catalog%20page.asp?Product+%23=AP15001D pretty set on getting this but would like more opinions. I will be powering two 12" eclipse 8 ohm 300 watt subs with it. Is there anything BETTER i can get for around the same price, keep in mind eventually i will upgrade my subs.
-
i found a box calculator online this is what i get
Vb = 2.595(ft3 )
F3 = 20.34 Hertz
Fb = 21.54 Hertz
Anyone give me the short version of what these numbers mean...
Fb - the frequency that the vent needs to be tuned to. Isn't that super low tuning though? i was thinking of like 33 ~ 34 hz
-
Alright so sell the pioneers and build a better box for my 12"s, any idea on how big of box? and what htz to tune it at. I paid 50$ for the pair of pioneers, i can probably make a better profit on them anyway.
-
TC2 motor, esque drivers. Would work in sealed and ported enclosures.
I have them in a ported box right now, the port noise is horrible, it is a car toys box. Im either going to sell these or my 2 10" Pioneer champion series subs, i have no idea which to keep.
-
I got two eclipse 12" 87121.8 subs, has anyone owned a pair of these? What kind of box did you have them in? This is the only info i could find on these subs.
87121.8
Fs 27Hz
Qts 0.43
DCR 7.2Ω
Vas 1.95 Cuft
Xmax (one way) 0.73˝
Continuous Power Handling 300W
Music Power Handling 600W
WTF does Vas stand for?
-
for 100 dollars per amp you could get away with power acoustik or db drive
Sorry to intrude, is db drive or power acoustik reliable?
-
Nice setup man, looks great.
-
Why not help him fix his wiring instead of recommending a different amp?
Wire up your subs like that for a 4 ohm load total (2 ohms per channel). You'll be seeing a lot less power, but you will stop blowing fuses.
Thx for the info man, i re wired them like this and haven't blow a fuse yet. Thanks again bro.
-
Another vid of the 12's i sealed up the box a little better and took the 10's out.
I know its nothing to brag about... but for a 300$ system it doesn't sound too bad.
-
i really doubt the bass is at -10
It really was man... with bass at like -2 or 0 i could only turn it up to about 40. That is the reason why the treble was so loud, I'll take a another video of them tomorrow and post it up. I have a different deck installed now, usually have bass -2 and treble +4 on the deck i have installed at the moment.
-
Here are some vids of both my setups same amp ( pyramid 2-ch 1000 watt ) first subs are 2 12" 87121.8 eclipse 8ohm 600 peak second set is 2 10" pioneer champion series 1000 watt dual 4-ohm voice coil subs. They are budget builds, no big 3 no second battery just a basic setup.
12's http://www.youtube.com/user/gecksterpuppet1221#p/a/u/0/szWYcu1w_Ho
10's http://www.youtube.com/user/gecksterpuppet1221#p/a/u/2/FEIt1MCKStM ( I know the treble is too high, I will take a better video tomorrow. )

There is a few songs on Krizz Kalikos CD "genius" that have tech nine in them, a few of them hit hella hard. A few are "doe doe" "butt naked fun" "getcha life right" "dead wrong" "so high", pretty much all of those songs are good and hit if you like tech.

http://www0.epinions.com/prices/pr-Eclipse_87121_DVC_Car-Subwoofer
That is the closest thing i could find to them, mine are SVC though and not all shiny, just a flat black. I'll pull one of the subs out tomorrow and check the back for the model.
-
I wish there was an eclipse guru on this forum, i can't remember the model of mine... think they are like 8812.5 or something... i can't find them anywhere online.
:santa:

Any idea's on a decent amp to get? I won't be entering contests with it, its my DD im installing the amp in. I'm just looking for something in the price range of 150-180 that is going to last and push these eclipse's. My amp now is a pyramid 1000 watt 2-ch and its paid it's dues, just time to upgrade. Well looking at the manual my amp now is 75 watts x 2 RMS @ 4 ohms ( that is horrible )
