wellington Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 What are your thoughts on this sub?

Omega5002 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Actually looks like a very solid sub, though I wish they made dual voice models instead of single coil. The Dayton Titanic Mk3 subs also also seem to be good as well http://youtu.be/U7r8wmsm5gE 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellington Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yeah I would need 4 of these to get down to 1 ohm. Giving each 400w rms, would equal out to 1600w rms between all 4 which is about what the 1500D puts out so I think it would be a good match. I was reading how people were giving these 3.75 f^3 boxes though....so I might go with a 4.0 sealed between all 4 since it needs 1.0 sealed each. Just keeping my options open at this time.

tacomaguy1 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Targeted more toward home audio I think Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellington Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Targeted more toward home audio I think What aspects of the sub gave you that idea? 2010 HHR LT - DNX 6160 - sony xec-700 - sony xm-4040 for door mids - XM-6020 for tweets in a-pillar - saz1500d v1 - VVME RD-12 1.75 f^3 32hz guru and president of the "cheap asses trying to beat up the block with bargain bin woofers" club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Targeted more toward home audio I think I think the HO is more catered to car audio. I've been interested in the Dayton 10" subs for an SQ setup in my truck. The Fs on them is wickedly low and I think they'd respond in the proper enclosure in my truck. I built an isobaric push/pull that I believe a sub like this could shine in. Any well built low tuned enclosure could make this sub destroy the lows I believe. Parts express does have a Dual voice coil option for some of these subs also. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only saw the 12" DVC option and it's only 700w rms. 2 of these for 1 ohm and I don't think these would handle my amp TBH. http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=295-467 These reviews are a lot more technical than sonic and other sites reviews.
