trying to decide between 12" subs


Recommended Posts

like it says im in the market for some 12s, at 1000-1200 rms max, and i dont really want to spend more than 300ish for them. so what ive been looking at are the AA arsenals(depending on price), AQ sdc2.5s but what else is out there? or what would you run in this range?

For 1K-1.5K rms I'd run the Sundown Audio Zv2 12's. They are a beast of a mid level woofer and will outperform either of the other two subs that you listed. If you wanna step it down a little then the Sundown sa12's are no joke either. They are only a 600 watt rms driver but I run 4 with a 3500d per 2 at .5 ohms and they take it quite well.

1000-1200 each? I am guessing for a pair?

$300 each, or for the pair?

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

For that price range I would go aq 2.5, or with obsidians.
