Autruche Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 If you could get a little higher budget, like a hundred bucks more, I'd get a couple of Fi SSDs or maybe some dc level 3s or 4s if possible, But I don't know much about RE Audio, those are the ones I'd look into for subs though. You can always check the for sale section on the forum. Quote Need Test Tones/Sine Waves?

Autruche Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 well if i was gonna go fi i was thinking maybe a fi q 18? I just threw the fi suggestion in there cuz my friend has one 12 inch ssd that sounds amazingly crisp and clear and deep. It sounded much better than my 2 15 inch jbls I had for sure. I can't say if it is louder though as he has a trunk car that doesn't have folding seats and I have a hatchback. Whatever you go with just make sure to remember that it is 10% equipment 90% install.

Ianarian Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 You can do all the sub swapping in the world. Until you get something worthy to push them with, you're grabbing at straws. You need a amp, especially when talking 2-15's. Your Pioneer amp is not doing your W3's justice. The sub is not where the problem lies.
