~Xtreme~ Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 i was wonderin if it would be better to get 3 12" pioneer premiers(3000 watts a piece) or a fully loaded 18" btl. they will cost about the same price i was wonderin wat some of you guys would go with. thanks Quote
Guest Nismofreak Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 well 1,500Rms...3000 is the peak right....Rms only matters...I think try the btl...Will get hella loud..FI FTW Quote
Guest Nismofreak Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 yah look at RMS....Those subs are 1,500rms a piece so together it is 4,500 rms but I would get a btl....Just look at the rms part....It is the only thing you want to look at. Quote
~Xtreme~ Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Posted May 22, 2007 thanks alot thats probly wat ill do Quote
Guest Nismofreak Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 for that btl....Well Don't put 5,000rms like steve does..... He has a special box made for it....Put like 2,600rms and do some upgrades on it...Here are some amps...Hifonics and acourtics amps. What is your price range for everyting? http://sonicelectronix.com/item_9338_Hifonics+BXi+2607D.html http://sonicelectronix.com/item_7151_Power...+SL3400D+-.html Quote
jcm1689 Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 the pioneers are only 1000 watts a piece. which means only 3000 rms and even more of a reason to go with a btl http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/v3/p...etailsComponent Quote R.I.P.

~Xtreme~ Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Posted May 22, 2007 for the price im not tryin to spend thousands or nothing but if the price is worth the product ill go with it kno wat i mean Quote
basshead Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) IMO there is no way that 1 18 will be louder than three 12's on the same amount of power that Fi says it will take 2000wrms and we all know that they will take a lil more than that but so will the pioneers you can put 4k rms to the 3 pioneers allll day and have no probs just think about it 1 18=254.34 of cone area and 3 12's=339.12 of cone area so if you planned to use the same amp on both setups the 3 12's will be louder Edited May 23, 2007 by basshead Quote
