VRE15 Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Watsup guys, i've been checking out the SMD forum for a while now. This is my first post, been a basshead ever since i bought my first crappy woofer when i was about 11 or something. I live in Rotterdam which is in Holland, that makes me Dutch and proud of it. Anyway a couple days back i sat in my buddy's Audi A3 that does a 143.6. He has 2 12 JL audio W6's on a Ground Zero 1.5000 SPL. Loved it! i NEED that in my life on a regular basis haha. Just bought myself a new ride (Volkswagen Golf Mk6 GTI) and now figuring out what i'm gonna put in it. I'm looking to buy a DC audio Woofer, probably a Level 4 12 or a 12 XL. If my electrical is taken care of and i'm pushing it with a quality amp (not yet sure which) Will a Level 4 12 do 144dB? you guys think?! or should i go with the XL. Or something different all together? Much appreciated!

cqtama Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 its all about the box. if you get a good design, or design it well and build it strong then yes its possible esspecially in a small hatchback car. look around the forum, check out some of the member builds and ask questions. good luck Quote R.I.P '01 blazer you treated my ears well until your transmission blew up.

VRE15 Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) thnx for the input! I'm going to study up on some enclosure design/builds I found a importer that can deliver both the Level 4 12 and the XL Prices: Level 4 12 : XXX Level 4 12XL : XXX Thats both without the cost of shipping it to my house, so i think the XL would be $200,- more then the Level 4 when all said and done. Is it worth it you guys think? just been told not to put prices in the posts, my bad!

VRE15 Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I might do just that. It wont be cheaper, but i know my girl would like it. Nice weekend out, and i get my sub haha. Win-Win Now just to figure out what sub to pick up! Quote 2009 Volkswagen Golf Mk 6 GTI HU: Pioneer Avic F10bt Audio: Under Construction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win-Win Now just to figure out what sub to pick up! The XL´s, still my stand. You know it, if you buy the lvl 4 and you meet the other guy with these XL´s, u want to sell ur lvl 4. Lot of real good critics here on forum about the XL´s and espacialy compared to the lvl 4. And u can make a 100 Euro extra, rent me ur appartment for this weekend, long time ago tha ive been in Rotterdam. Want to see again the seaport, one or two museums, a knock off spliff in the coffeeshop.

Haha, if you can help me with building a box, your stay will be FREE!
