Which Is Louder?


Recommended Posts

Well DD 1500 10"s are like $100 each... Not expensive at all. They pack some power for cheap inexpensive subs.

Instead of using 2 mid level 12's, get 1 higher end 12 from DC, DD, Fi, etc.

i do agree i like the xmax on the vmax's as well, i believe 17 or 18mm. my original plan for myself was two 15" vmaxes in my probe but the car is running like shit now. so im going to take out all of my frustrations on my brothers new suv lol.

and bleek i dont like 10", IMO they look to small. and its going in an suv, i want 12" at least. rofl im deciding what i want in my brothers trunk.

i would, but none that i have seen have been that impressive. meades fi's are fckin amazing. they made an eyeball pop out the womans head rofl! i know what meades system consists of but imo fi are better then dc. dd's are good i agree, but for really good ones they are expensive. fi's are priced good, that is why i like them. if my brother had the money i would through a few btl's in there but money doesnt grow on trees around here.

Where you live? Near Michigan at all? I can get the kicker cvr 12's for $60 a sub. They only take 300rms when you put them in a ported box so you wouldn't need a huge amp. Here's a decent amp that would match the kickers well...LINK...The amp I linked is a rockford p550.2 mine birthed at 591 and another guy on jaguarforums bought one his did over 600 rms. For $169 bucks you can't ask for too much more and that is free shipping. I have one but haven't even used it I had it left and couldn't get rid of it so I threw it in my car but than sold my subs but I did hook up a single cvr 15 to it for a sec and the amp is nice. They've got a rockford p600.1bd but it's only stable to 2 ohms so you'd have to get dual 2 ohm subs to use it, but it's only $189 for the amp. In a vehicle like that blazer those kickers will sound nice I've had a few sets of them in my escape and they shake things up pretty nicely.

yeah i have heard the kickers, a kid i know has two of them in a prefabed (ewww) box and a kicker amp. the prefabed sounds like it is tuned high because it is always loud and has no low end. thats what my brother liked about my four 12", it shook everything so bad and sounded good doing it. high tuning is loud but sounds like shit IMO.

i think the alpines or vmax would be more musical. but also the ssd would be big, loud and musical. i dont know if i should tell him to go with numbers or cone area. thanks for the help!

man dont buy your subs according to vids, go out listen to stuff for yourself, this stufs not cheap and everyones Fi/DD/re/TC ddoes not sound the same. Even if its the same model as on the video it could sound better or worse.
