curtdakota Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) i had a dodge dakota extended cab, gonna be running a IA DP 21 sub in the back, and i have ID CTX 6.5 inch comps in my doors, no rear speakers, but i have a 4 channel amp (mb quart 4.125) so i thinking about doing a center console for some more mid bass in a sealed box. what are some good mid bass 8" woofers that can take 125 watts at 4 ohm, or better yet 250 watts at 2 ohms? also what frequency would you bandpass mid bass woofers at? im assuming start them off where my subs leave off, which would be 80hz, but how high should i have them play? 500hz? 800hz? ive never done dedicated mid bass woofers, so im new to this part. my budget for the woofers is probably 50-100 bucks, i dont want to spend a ton of money on this.

curtdakota Posted May 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 maybe im misunderstanding the purpose of mid bass, but i dont want vocals or anything coming out of them, just a higher bass frequency than my subs play to fill in the mid range some more, my vocals get loud enough, but it needs more mid bass.

tonedeaf Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) What frequency are you wanting to run? Many use shallow mount 8" and 10" subs. Although some midrange woofers can play as far down as 50hz with pretty impressive response. Edited May 13, 2011 by tonedeaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blownengine Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 There are tons of 8's that would work. And just set the filters to play what you want.
