TeamHT Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Oh my god, dude. The only one getting offended here is YOU. Sit back, read, and realize I'm merely posting information. Why is it that people who blame other people for being defensive are the ones being defensive O_o Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

bkolfo4 Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 AA 18" Chaos is a nice sub.

Kevin M Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I think my subs are pretty great for the cost. I won't be breaking any records with them but as far as entry level subs they work great. http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=295-475 Don't need much power either... Which can be a consideration for alot of people. (300RMS/450max lol) 3 18" in a sealed wall did 145.8 outlaw and now that it is ported I am sure it is closer to 150 then I have ever been and that is on bullshit power (1500 watts).This is an alternative if you don't have the option of dropping 1k+ on subs and another thou on electrical upgrades and an amp. Just something to consider. Quote 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Fi SSD is rated at 1000watts and is $254 before options OR shipping. I'd say it's a solid contender for "affordable" 18.

Emmet Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 You've obviously never owned an HDC3 No I haven't, I just read the specs from their website I know, that's what I meant when I said obviously you have never owned one. Like a couple other brands, it is seriously underrated. Whether to help avoid user error or pack more punch for the dollar, who knows or who cares. But I can tell you, that RMS is 1,000 like the SA is 600. You just said that the rms is 1000 just like I said in my post earlier. So what are you trying to prove, everyone knows just about every sub (im talking about aq,fi,sundown,dc etc. /non mainstream brands) are underrated. Hes just informing the OP, you made a point to correct purplesyrup when he said the aq will take 2k. Not very helpful when he's looking for subs if he thinks its only a 1k sub. Quote i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah.. You want this to happen to you? Give decent handshakes people.

1-12-t1 Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 damn those two are going at it... to stay on OP's topic, i went to a show and the aq hdc3 GETS DOWN and GETS DOWN on LOW AMOUNTS OF POWER the dude was running maybe 1500rms? (was cheap hifonics amp) and damn... i was pretty impressed. the flex on the car was pretty bad... he had a 'professionally' built box, and im sure that has something to do with it... but wow is all i can say.

From the point of view of most people just getting into car audio anything over 140+ is pretty loud for a daily setup even if you're not really considered loud until you hit 150. lol You know what I mean? I think mine is still pretty loud and the subs do a hell of a job for what they are. no "butthurts". haha just throwing that out there.
