But a HO alternator for 200 dollar is too good to be true, it won't perform what it says it will do and break down quickly with no power at idle. Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.
sharkshit55 Posted March 17, 2014 Author Report Posted March 17, 2014 thanks for the info but you made that statement without knowing anything about the alternator. but thats i will keep that in mind Looking to buy hdc3 and sq2200 bundle. let me know
kirill007 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Posted March 18, 2014 True, you haven't told us which one it is. But a brand new alternator that puts out 240A with a decent output at idle and will last you for atleast 10 years can't cost 200$. Not even if it was mass-produced in China and you bought 200 of them to get a bulkdiscount, Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.
wccfan12 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Posted March 18, 2014 I'm with him^^^ 200 bucks for a 240 amp alt sounds too cheap to be real. My Mechman 240 amp was 350 shipped and I thought that was cheap but it's Mechman so gave me the piece of mind. I've heard HDc3's are decent subs and can get decently low. AS far as them being musical it's really up to your tastes in music like Kirill007 said it's hard to recommend a sub unless we know what you expect out of one. I can tell you though they will last a long time and take a beating and get super loud so if that's what you're looking for I say get it.

jarrius Posted March 18, 2014 Report Posted March 18, 2014 Hdc3's are musical i can say that for sure because I own one. Now about the alt I agree with every one alse. Please post the brand of it and research the alt maker online before you buy it.

It's not a real term to describe anything, Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

Never know May work may not According to most people every sub is musical even when the manufacturer specifically says they aren't made for that. What does musical even mean? It's not a real term to describe anything, In my opinion, it's something that has good response, like being able to keep up with every note, and also mechanically clean(aka not "boomy"). The hdc3 is a very good sounding speaker, it plays anything I throw at it, and it's mechanically clean, not 100% but still very good. Now would I say it's a pure sound quality sub, absolutely not, but it's a very good daily sub for the price. Gets loud too lol To OP, you don't want to cheap out on the alt, sure that alt alt may do 240 but it's most likely a high turn on alt, so it's all top end and shit idle. 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)
jarrius Posted March 18, 2014 Report Posted March 18, 2014 Musical to me would be sounding good on all types of music. Not boomy and has a great range. IMO there great for daily. I play a lot of rock metal country when I'm not at shows and the quility of sound that comes from the hdc3 is great to me. 2012 Chevy sonic1xSQ HDC3 12 D2RF R1200d 140 square foot of Q-Mat(soon to be installed) 140.2Db sealed on the dash with TL 142 DB sealed on the dash with another meter (was dead on with the TL at a show i was at) 141 on music. strangeduck,on 02 Jan 2014 - 01:39 AM, said: when my car spins out i just put the car in neutral, turn in the direction i want to go and pucker my asshole
