ozo Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Alright, so I just blew my subs on my current system, so I decided I'm going to redo everything. Guess this will largely be an opinion thread, I just need some ideas on what to get. Current setup 2000 Neon (lawl) Kenwood KVT-614 Stock electrical 4ga noname wiring Rockford Fosgate P600.2 2 Alpine Type-R 12s (Older ones rated at 300rms) Prefab box at 46hz or something So, there's alot of room for upgrades here. I'm definitely going to be doing the big3, and upgrading the wiring depending on a new amp. I'm wanting to do anywhere from 1k-2kw rms. Budget is going to be around $500, give or take a bit, and I'm not tied to any specific brand. As of now I was looking at a Fi BL 12 and a RF T1000bd. What would be some other setups that you guys would recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team-Atomic-Andrew Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 go for the rockford and Fi do a good box for the Fi and you will be set, or you could get the subwoofer of the gods, a funky pup or this muther of all subs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmalinich Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 when are those funky pup jokes gonna die out? and man idk if you're gonna hit 2k rms with fi woofers for $500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozo Posted March 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Well, I'm honestly going to end up spending more than I initially thought, so i might just go all the way to begin with if I can scrape up the money. I'll have to pick another amp and all that, but in my head it's better to spend more now, rather than upgrading things little by little in the future and spending more money overall, shrug. For a 2k rms amp, I was looking at the other threads on here, and it'd be around 3-400 for the amp.. I think I'll bump by budget up to 800. If I did go with the Fi and Rockford amp, I also had another immediate option for subs, two RF T1s. It seems to be that Fi makes better subs than RF, so out of one BL or two T1s, which would be the better option? If I were going to go with the 2krms, what other brand subs should I look at in that price range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmalinich Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 subs... Fi, RE, AA ... (my opinion) if you can maybe pick up two used Fi BLs you could run 2k RMS to them and they'd be beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
