CaPRiCEx383 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 So what I'm wanting to know is there any budget subs better than the Hifonics HFi12d4's? I've blown 2 in the past month, I had them with a smaller amp around a year and a half and no problems. I gave them some real power and now I'm going through 1 every 2 weeks. They were nowhere near as loud with a smaller amp. I ask this because I'm wanting to do 4 12"s and for 50 bucks a pair they pound, i got 1200 watts to play with so i need to know if there is anything better under $50 a sub.

iKidwell Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 You may as well stick with those, I used em for my first setup..can't really get a better woofer for the price c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockbrook Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I'm gonna be checking out T3 Audio cause they have some real decent prices on their lower level subs...me and you have similar set-ups, but for 50 bucks there's really nothing much better out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanitarium Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 You might be blowing them by clipping, get a dmm and set your gains right and you shouldnt have a problem with the hifi's And a dmm is supposed to stop clipping?
