T3hNewKid Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 alright sean, would those 2 fi 12"Q"s shake other peoples windows when i drive beside them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean 371 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Shake other windows? That's not exactly easy to do...but that would be a realll nice amount of bass. It'd slam real hard don't worry about it.

T3hNewKid Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 any other subs u would suggest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean 371 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Um, alpine type r's are pretty cheap, they sound real good too. $120 each. I'd run a bxi 1205 to two of them. (get the dual 4 ohm models if you get 2 subs) Quote A couple links to some box builds: Tahoe Box 1, Tahoe Box 2, Nissan Titan, VW GTI, Mini-Bump, Hummer H2, Ford F-150 My own car builds (current setup --- under construction): Overall Thread, Kickpods, Dash, Back Doors Subwoofer Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civichatch Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 (edited) Um, alpine type r's are pretty cheap, they sound real good too. $120 each. I'd run a bxi 1205 to two of them. (get the dual 4 ohm models if you get 2 subs) I got the alpine Type R 15" and im REALLY happy with it. It sounds great and gets pretty loud. And for only 199$ cant go wrong. Just make sure you feed them with enough power.

T3hNewKid Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 so 2 type r's would be better than kicker l7's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean 371 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Eh, it depends on what you want. The Kicker's might get louder, but not in a sealed box, only in a ported. The Alpine's IMO are a better all-around woofer, and will sound good in sealed boxes as well. Up to you. Those Soundstreams I showed you would work wonders as well.

Slinky Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 dude, id get a couple 15 inch L7's in a ported box and it would bang nicely.

shooter69 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 or, if you do want to stick with those L7's, just buy those speakers without the box, and then someone on here could get you a killer box plan.
