need help with a decent SPL 12


Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay so I'm currently looking around trying to find a new setup to build. It will be 1 12 in a ported 3ft^ box tuned at about 30-31hz in a trunk of a 2012 vw jetta. Ive been looking at american bass xfl122 so I can wire it down to 1ohm on probably a soundstream amp that does 1500 at 1. But I'm really just looking for recommendations on a good setup. Budget is 550

getting a new sub, in the same box on the same power prolly isn't gonna do much for you.

if you are building a new box... maybe.

but 1200w is 1200w.

fi sp4, dc xl, sundown x, z4. All great subs. but i would look into getting a bigger/better amp tho.

what system were you running before?

plus any good $550 sub won't do much of anything on 1200w

jvc deck

stinger 1800 front

hc 2000 kinetic rear

2 runs of 1/0g

big 3/4

ct 60.4

2 ct 1400.1

ct EXO 15 d1

lots of deadner

type r comps front stage

6 kicker tweets rear stage

lots of great stuff

coming soon

ho alt

more bats

ct comps for front stage

more deadner

sweet amp rack

lots of L.E.D lights

new deck (thinking 80 prs, or flip out)

your so right, funny thing is 2 days ago me and hunter were talking about the sp4 and team subs. even said to myself "oh yea no 12s"

how soon i forget huh.

well any other sub.. also mayhem, tantric, crossfire, meso... take your pick. but all need more then what you got.

If ur shooting for pure spl look into digital designs and American bass. Also soundqubed. Many others but just some spl subs to consider.

Vehicle: 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD WT

Head Unit: Pioneer DEH-

Mids/Highs: Focal Integration ISC 165’s (front) 

Subs/Amps: TBD

when i think spl crossfire and mayhem come to mind. prolly because every set up I've heard Them in has been over 150db above 35hz.

not saying they can't go lower, just my experiences with them.

is $550 your budget for you sub only?

Edit: In that power range I would be looking at a AA Havoc or a Fi Q. That me though

Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born.

My penis is bigger than your penis

I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.
