Need suggestions for SPL sub


FONG SI

Recommended Posts

Hey guys I got a budget of $500, what spl sub would u suggest? Preferable a 15".

My goal is 150db minimum.

Vehicle: 1997 4dr Suzuki sidekick/vitara/escudo

I'll be using the stock alternator (for now)

Phoenix Gold ti2500.1 amp (for now)

I plan on buying a secondary battery! (already have a yellow top optima under the hood)

either a second optima or a XSpower D3100 once i can afford it!

Also i would like box designs suggestions for your choice of sub.

thnx.

500 bucks per sub? fi sp4 15, two of them would be pretty good. 500 for subs?

check out DC or soundqubed. they make decent woofers for a lot less.

What location do you want the 150db? Headrest, kick, dash, etc?

You "might" need a little bit more power than that, especially for a single 15". Not saying it's not possible, just challenging, especially if you want it to be daily listening.

DC Level 5 is a great spl sub, might be a little out of your budget though, check for used.

Sounds like you have a lot of basic questions, maybe do a little bit more researching around. Check out the build logs to get a better idea, look for more vehicles of your type as well.

150 is a pretty high number to reach as well, especially with novice experience, and limted budget. Maybe aim for something a little bit less?

Maybe i wasn't clear enough in the topic as for u guys to advise me , my main goal is 150! what (if any) are the minimum requirements in doin so? like are there some type of guidelines that u guys follow based on experience an testing maybe.

Goal - 150db with 1 15" preferably, (with a budget of $500 for sub) using a phoenix gold ti2500.1 amp.

what else is necessary to carry out such a goal?

All in the box, but 1 15 on roughly 2.5K out of the trunk will be challanging.

Wanna get 150?

Wall it with 4 15s, 2 18s

With 500 dollars? save a little more and start investing in electrical

A 500 dollar sub that gets loud? my HDC418s get loud for 440 each, I believe Fi SP4s are 5-530 and you can call DC and negotiate a price.
