Best Quality Subs For Price Range


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to decide on 2 new subs for my truck. I want 10's and I will be building a sealed enclosure for them.

Currently I'm looking at these as they seem reputable and the price is more of my range. I'm hoping not to spend over $250 for both of them, but when it comes down to quality I have to remember that I might spend more than $250 so we shall see. :( The over all ohm load I would like my amp to see is 1 ohm so DVC subs are mostly what I have been looking at and SVC 2 ohm's.

Im looking at,

-RF punch 3 shallows dual 4ohm - Link about $200 for both online

-Orion c2 dual 4ohm (I can get for good price) - Link about $120 for both online

-Alpine type S dual 4 ohm - Link about $160 both online

-Polk audio MOMO MM2104DVC - Link - about $180 online

I'd love to try out more of competition type subs such as some 10in DC lvl2's but I'd be scared out of my mind to see the price on those... :blink:

Of all of these I've only heard the alpine's, but none of the others. If anyone could help give some insight as to which ones you've had experience with, which ones are best value or even if you know of something better in my price range I would appreciate the help BIGTIME!!

Thanks!

Not being new at something doesn't mean anything. Just because a prostitute isn't new at what she does, doesn't change the fact that she still 'sucks'

No they don't not at all, and IMO They don't drop as low.=, and usually need just as much air space at that. They just allow you to make the box shallower.

Hmmm, not sure if I like the sound of that...

Those audioque's look like they only come as 4 ohm but otherwise they look pretty sturdy, but I really want to drop my amp to 1 ohm and get the full power.

12's I cant do, that's pushing it a little too much for the sound I want. Thanks though dude!

Thanks for all the replies, please keep shouting out your opinions, I could use as many as possible. :D
