cdawgstalon Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 right now im running 6 alpine type r 12's and i dont think that they're tha best for spl. ive been looking into some of what i think are good spl subs and would like to know what everyone thinks of them and what there opinions are on other spl subs they've run. my first choice is definately the fi BTL 12. i just heard of this Bravox Audio EDX12D-2 and it sounds pretty good. also looked into the MA Audio EH0152 and am seriously thinking about the DD Z12 if i cant get fi's. Now i have been told that 15's sound like crap but if they're better for spl then ill prolly go with 4 15's or if i stick with 12's ill stay with 6 like i have now, but any advice u guys can give me on the different brands and what u have run would really help me out. thanks. oh and by the way, amps arent an issue cuz i can get as much power as i need.

First of all, if you build the box right 15's will sound just as good as any other sized sub, also what kind of budget do you have, and how much power are you planning on running, I know alot of subs that get hella loud, but it depends on budget and application.

cdawgstalon Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 well i have to sell the subs and amps that i have right now but i figure i should be able to get around $5000-6000 k for my stuff. i was hoping to push over 5k watts rms with tha system but im not gonna put a limit on it. if i could get 8K rms i would be really happy but 5k is what im shooting for right now. this will prolly happen over tha witer cuz i live in northern michigan and winter is very soon so i figured i would do it then. i just have to rip out everything that was installed over the last year and start over . i had the local shop in town do it so it might take a while. let me know what you think is best.thanks Quote currently just running a JL 12W7 and RF BD 1001 soon to come soundstream XXX 18 Memphis mojo MCD4KW Big azz box in tha backseat working out other details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunters21w Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) Hey, whereabouts in Northern Mi do you live? I live near Pontiac/Waterford and I'd love to hear your type R's. Lemme know O and btw, check out DC. Very good sounding and can get VERY loud in the right setup.

cdawgstalon Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 i live in mancelona. its in a snowbelt. use to live in traverse city right near the bay. tha type r's are definately loud but i dont think they are really made for spl. although the HU goes u to 40 and i usually set it at 30 with the bass at 0. i dont have an alt upgrade yet an i do need more batteries but if i put the bass all the way up and tha HU at 32 it gets real hard to breathe an she can get really nasty. its a nice setup but i know ill be happier with some better spl subs. and thanks ill definately look at dc. ill prolly pm ya Quote currently just running a JL 12W7 and RF BD 1001 soon to come soundstream XXX 18 Memphis mojo MCD4KW Big azz box in tha backseat working out other details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
