New sub for my car


Sunny

Recommended Posts

Hello fellow users,

I have 3 subs to choose from and I would love your help with the pros and cons of each.

These are my choices and best prices ( I don't live in the US ) and they are all used :

AA chaos 12 - 300$

ID IDMAX 12 V.3(The old design) - 355$

DC lvl 2 - 310$

I heard the IDMAX v.3 has a problem with its coil, any input on that?

Plus , I am looking for is a sub that can play low , which one of those can handle the lows? I will be using a 2.5CF tuned to 35hz.

Thank you!

if you already have the box you plan to use you may just want to do 1 of 2 things.

#1 - figure out which sub will work with that box the best

#2 - figure out which sub you like and build the enclosure based on that subs specs.

what kind of power will you be using?

what kind of music do you listen to?

what kind of vehicle will these be going in to?

All of these things and so much more go into what will be the ideal sub for you

Are you able to get stuff shipped to you come Sonicelectronics? I know they have the DC Lvl 2 12" for $199.00, Just don't know how much the shipping would be to wherever you are located..

I will be using a sundown sae1000D , I listen to hip hop, bit of dubstep and DnB and some mainstream and it will all go in an alfa romeo 159.

I already have the box I will be using so how can I check which sub will fit it best?

As I wrote in the thread, I don't live in the US so the prices are higher...

You are welcome to read my thread again, there was no vs.

Back to my questions:

if you already have the box you plan to use you may just want to do 1 of 2 things.

#1 - figure out which sub will work with that box the best

#2 - figure out which sub you like and build the enclosure based on that subs specs.

what kind of power will you be using?

what kind of vehicle will these be going in to?

All of these things and so much more go into what will be the ideal sub for you

I already have the box I will be using so how can I check which sub will fit it best?

How can I actually check which sub fits the best?
