Cashdollar2009 Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I am looking for a few sub options for my friends Oldsmobile Alero. The available amplifiers will be two Bxi1610d's (Hifonics), and i need a few budget options in where i can put all of this power from the Gods. (lolz) Electrical will be a kinteik hc1400 in the trunk and a HO alt. in which I am still on the lookout for. The better the price on the subs, the better for my bank. Thanks! Note: Looking at new OR used. Quote On 6/30/2011 at 1:11 AM, 'Ray' said: Acoustical energy is free. Electrical energy is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamHT Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 you know, i would have to reccomend pioneer premier championships. i wasnt expecting these subs to do so well. i have 2 in a 4.5 cu ft ported box (i know, but youd be surprised how well this works out) and they replaced my team rf 12s. theyll max out at 3500 watts each, but these are some serious subs for so cheap. find them on onlinecarstereo.com or woofersetc.com for $150 not including the shipping. now i dont want to make it seem as if these subs were better than team rf 12s, but bass clarity, sound quality, and spl was all there and i couldnt ask for more. these would hit the highs so nicely and the lows so cleanly, i couldnt complain. these take a little longer than other subs ive owned but run them free air and then DUMP!

My friend Kyle, (yes he exists) just picked up a 5-speed GL (not sure of the year), from an old man down the road for $3200. He has been bugging me to set him up with something, and the budget he is giving me is rather tight, therefore I felt as if SMD was one of the better places on the net to get some suggestions. And along with your first assumption, I am flying the DC banner in the sig because I have recently purchased a 15" Level 4xl and am running it in MY REAL CAR. The problem being (well more like challenge) is that he is asking for either two 10"s or two 12"s. Based on having the same vehicle, I have ideas of what he can fit, and to get two 15"s in our trunk, forget about it. He pays me, so i get him what he asks for. lol And on a side note, I have a pretty good idea as to how car audio works (no sarcasm), I am by no means "audio illiterate" so serious suggestions are appreciated.

And i appreciate the suggestion. I will have to take a look into them. Currently on my list I have a pair of Re SX 10"s at $350.00 new. Also a pair of 12" cvx's at $389.00 new. Box space available will be around 4 to 4.5 cubes roughly. In **MY** car, I have my 15"XL sitting in 4 cubes. Quote On 6/30/2011 at 1:11 AM, 'Ray' said: Acoustical energy is free.

ISO Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 (edited) I have 2 American Bass VFL 10 inch subs. They come with no box plans and I want $150 a piece plus shipping so add $35 onto each one. 1500 watt RMS - 3000 watts peak. They do not have the holes drilled around the pole piece. http://www.americanbassusa.com/front/showcontent.aspx?fileid=71 http://www.americanbassusa.com/front/showcontent.aspx?fileid=35 Have only been used twice. PM if interested. They are dual 1 ohm. And to find a 3000 watt 10 or 12 is going to run you about $400 apiece.
