CorNut Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 We're reusing an old amp, budget gem or budget bust did a dyno of the rebadged Infinity Reference version, it hit 700w. It can only go down to 2 ohm, I'm looking for something to throw in the back of an 07 Mustang. I was looking at the Skar DDX 12 but I think it wants more power than I can give it. I'll build an enclosure, we're trying to do this on a budget. What are my best options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorNut Posted September 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2021 I watched a video of the SDR's not doing too well, but the SVR's were better regarded. Do you think the SVR at 800W RMS would be too beefy and I'd still be better off going SDR? I've never actually ran a Skar sub before, doing a full on budget build trying to reuse things is difficult since I can't just buy what I want. This is going in a 19 yr old's car, we're trying to get some bass with minimal cash out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafaseles Posted September 7, 2021 Report Share Posted September 7, 2021 You could also look into these http://incriminatoraudio.com/index.php/products/subwoofers/i-series Everyone I've talked to that have used incriminator subs or amps has never had anything bad to say. I guess it really comes down to enclosure size, since you don't have a ton being in a mustang 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out!

CorNut Posted September 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2021 I think I'll give that (E-12) a go, not too expensive and it's probably about right for the amp. ty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur79 Posted September 7, 2021 Report Share Posted September 7, 2021 CT Sounds OZONE-12 is rated right around your anticipated RMS output from the amplifier and it's on sale for $150 right now: https://www.ctsounds.com/collections/ozone-subwoofers/products/ozone-12 I haven't used/heard an Ozone, but I've done some builds with their Tropo and Meso and they always seemed to perform well. That said, it's hard to go wrong with Sundown and I've heard good things about Incriminator as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't ordered yet, I have the ozone in my cart with the 11% first purchase coupon, $133.50 Would you go with the ozone over the Tropo? I like the prices of the CT stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the prices of the CT stuff I know the Tropo's sound good and if you decided to add a 2nd sub and a bigger 1-ohm stable amp down the line it would be a pretty easy upgrade. The Ozone has a little higher power handling, but the Tropo is a bit cheaper. I don't think over-driving the Tropo by 50 watts would hurt it. Also, if you build your box more SPL focused it will have higher impedance rise and you will definitely be fine giving it a little extra power.
