Second Skin Audio

subs that will handle 3k under $300


Recommended Posts

Find 2 used SA-12s, feed them clean Power and build a proper enclosure for them, and be happy.

Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks :)

Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.

My point. What does low amperage over long periods have to do with car audio? If you were planning on powering 12 flashlights then yes, that would be important. But when you are powering car audio needs, you will be looking for instant power. Just an FYI

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

i agree with much of the above, why want to run a lot of power and then cheap out on subs or any part of the build for that matter? if you are running 3000RMS rather than 3000 peak rating, your not gonna find any cheap equipment that will do that, unless it is all used and even then your luckily to find what your looking for, and even you plan on buying decent subs rated less and then overpowering because youve seen that others can do that, you definitely dont want to cheap out on anything, because you really need clean electrical, install etc. to overpower subs safely

lol

i do think decent systems can be had for under 1k, if you take the time to find all the parts it takes, you arent gonna find everything for a good deal at once

my entire system will barely reach 1k in total cost, it will be a ~2000 rms system, but wont know how decent it is until its built an d is playing, but at least all parts are good equipment

i hate it when people just want cheap and go to walmart to buy something, if they want to thats fine, but you can still get good equipment for a good price if you take the time to look

but just saying i want to do that, but im not spending over X amount for it, no can do there, lol

there is a reason, that 150DB, hairtricks, 160DB, windshield shatter, are all milestones in the car audio world, they are not easy to get

I think they're just stating the obvious.

What is your goal with this setup? Regardless, good luck with your search and post a build log. Cause SMD got some picture lovers
