412 CVX Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 wanting to see some low cost builds low cost as in pyle,legacy,lower end hifonics stuff just wana see who knows how to get the most bang for the lowest buck are you wanting to see actual existing setups, or if anyone's had experiences with low end brands? if it's the latter and all you want is bang, i have a friend who's got a sony xplod amp powering a kenwood typhoon 12 and an mtx 5500 12 (none of it new, most of it likely stolen) in a prefab box with countless holes and leaks. it cant really hit any low notes, and i've taken shits that sounded better than it, but for midbass it sounds pretty loud for what it is (i said loud, not good). although i did meet a guy with the same sony xplod amp (his was much nicer) powering a couple of kicker comp 12's. he had it in a really clean infinite baffle type setup. not only did it look clean as all hell, it sounded so deep, clean, and loud. so in essence, it's up to the installer to make the system shine. oh, and make sure your box is custom designed for the subs. never waste your money on prefab Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.

iKidwell Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 there's a guy on here with a PT walled with 8 hfi 12's...don't remember who it is though Quote c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcpballer64 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Vizonik and Hifonics I have experienced both and are surprising for what they are.

CaPRiCEx383 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I had about $250 in my previous system which consisted of two Hfi12d4's, JBL 1201.1 and a walmart wiring kit. It got down for being low cost, won my first competition with that system in 129.9 bassrace. I have about $150 more in my current system which is 4 12" HFi12d4's on the JBL 1201.1 and and a KNU Flex 4 guage kit.
