KickerKid58 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 so my dad has these old ass small cabinet speakers from the late 80's and I am looking to replace the woofers for christmas as I completely shredded the surround on one and the other is starting to go. sub is a realistic/radioshack 40-1016 8" subwoofer was able to find some specs__ http://support.radioshack.com/support_audio/doc62/62646.pdf Anyone have any suggestions for a good s/q replacement that will still have good bass response? Trying VERY HARD to keep my budget limit topped out at $100 for (2) subs but im not too sure if thats possible. The radio shack one is actually a replacement for the original in one of the speakers (original has no specs but this one does and it sounded just as good) Thanks! ---Andrew Quote 06 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2 DC Level4 12" Soundstream TA1.3000d 4 RF Punch 6.5" Components 2 RF Punch 3.5" 2-ways RF Prime 400.4D XS Power XP950 +&-run of XScorpion 1/0 OFC My Civic Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What speakers you use or at least state the freq response. Quote Loudness is no substitute for musicianship, and partial deafness is no badge of honor. I was once able to hear this advice.

KickerKid58 Posted December 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) This might work http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=295-200 but based on the specs of the driver you listed it looks like you are looking more towards a mid-bass driver then a sub driver. What speakers you use or at least state the freq response. Thats all the info i got the other one has no specs whatsoever unfortunately. and I actually believe you are correct it is a midbass driver and not a sub driver edit: looked on there site, so would something like this be more or less what im looking for? http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=295-376 Edited December 1, 2011 by KickerKid58 Quote 06 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2 DC Level4 12" Soundstream TA1.3000d 4 RF Punch 6.5" Components 2 RF Punch 3.5" 2-ways RF Prime 400.4D XS Power XP950 +&-run of XScorpion 1/0 OFC My Civic Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkeyboozter Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 That looks like a good match without knowing much about the rest of the system. Sounds like a interesting project, have some pics? Quote Loudness is no substitute for musicianship, and partial deafness is no badge of honor. I was once able to hear this advice.
