caveman Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 As the forum says I'm a newb and looking for some pointers, advice, and well anything you can really tell me. I need some help picking a new setup for my subwoofers, I been searching again for something that can kick me harder then what I have now. Which is 2 daul 2 ohm kicker CVR's with a Alpine v-power 1,000 watt amp and to be honest it barely shakes my mirrors...but I think its the crappy free ported box I have them in. I need opinions from the stuff I've been looking at, I want a system that can make my heart skip a beat, make my truck feel like its falling apart, makes my house feel like an earthquakes about to hit. Well you get my point here mainly looking for shake then sq, heres what Ive looked at and yes those may not be good enough but I barely have experience so help me out people: 1. 2 12" or 2 15" Alpine Type R powered by an Alpine PDX-M12 2. 2 12" or 2 15" Memphis (no idea what series) no idea of an amp either yet 3. 2 12" 512b or 2 15" 515b Digital Designs no idea of an amp trying to stay under $300 a piece for subs thanks to anyone who puts in input and their own opinion on other subs that could out class these for the price but pick one of the three atleast. 2 DC level 4s Well I got skar haha, pretty nice so far.

UnderLoK Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 No matter what you go with you need a real box, so in all honesty I would start there. Your current subs aren't great, but they aren't exactly Pyle either. If I were you I would build a real box planning for bigger/better, see how they do, and go from there. If you do not get a real box it doesn't matter what you switch to. If at first you do not succeed, you are doing it wrong! -ARSCheck out my walled TBSS build over here4 Fi Team 18s on 2 Cactus K9 DS18 doors on 2 MBQ 1Ks, Vifa pillars on a STL4.500 Pioneer X8500 6 XS Power D7500, 1 3400S Second Skin 2 270a Mechman Alts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caveman Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 i am thinking about getting 2 skar VVX 12's on 1500 rms what do you think how does your skar kick Tbh if I could go back in time, I would buy one 12 or 15 and run it on 600+ rms. Since I blew the other one and started running the 1 12 in the 35 hertz box on 600 watts it pounds amazing. Definitely a good buy. The 1 12 hit harder then the 2 12's on 1200 watts but thats just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
