Which subwoofers?


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if this is against the rules to post a sort of "vs" thread, (just let me know, I will take this thread down) but I really need help. I'm new to car audio and am learning slowly, accepting any advice as well. I am looking at...

x2 Rockford P3 15's (not really interested in but want opinion)

x2 Fi Bl 12's (have the electrical upgrade for them as well)

x2 Sundown Audio SA-12's (have the electrical upgrade for them as well)

I want to know which would sound the best, and hit the hardest. I'm accepting all opinions on which sub is better and will take advice on what to buy. If I have not listed a good sub please let me know below and list another! Thank you guys so much.

**I'm looking at the Fi Bl's by the way, but I want whatever is the best set of two 12's. Please let me know what you would think would be the best out of these 3, and let me know if you have any other suggestions. Thanks again!

There is no such thing as "the best subwoofer" in the car audio world. It depends on a lot of factors. The enclosure you build is a big part of sq and output. But what amp are you using? What's your upgraded electrical?

The FI bl's are very nice subs, but, for less $$ the sa-12's do very well and handle a ton of power as long as its clean. Just my $.02

Both subs are quality

No comment on the P3's

how can you have electrical upgrade for subs?

Meaning his electrical system can produce the proper power need to run the subs. The Fis and Sundowns need more to run then the RFs.

Yeah I'm having a little trouble with all this, but I have 2 battcapp 2000's and all the wiring, getting the Big 3 soon, etc.

Haha I want to hear the P3's aren't as good, because everyone has P3's and I want to out due it. I'm looking at upgrading after the Fi's so i was thinking SA-12's..?
