in the market for a new pair of subs

[xxxfrankensteinxxx]

i blew my one 12 inch sub today for sure and idk on the on the other one, for the time being i have some old rocksford real old. thinking about soundstream t5s 2 12s or 1 15 what do you think or any other advice? i want loud

[GraniteLXI]

If you want loud get a pair of Kicker Solo's, 15 inch, deep as hell...but they require slightly deep pockets to buy... other then those I would suggest Vulfenhag, I have had great experience with them.

[firstimeaccord]

I suggest Memphis all the way! I have a memphis amp that makes my subs dumb under-powered mind you. And my buddy has a single memphis m3 12" running on a factory taurus stereo that sounds pretty sick. Enough said, buy memphis!!!

i have a 10 inch alpine type R....500 RMS watts with a rockford fosgate amp.....its not loud but its crisp...and it sounds good.

^^^ With proper power the alpines are super loud for the money in a ported box I find.

mine is in a sealed box...and yes they are loud...my friend had 2 10 inch type Rs in his truck and they hit hard....believe me...my amp has the power...its rated 1189 watts RMS at 1 ohm

i would go orion all the way but i suggest the old hcca comps you can find them in certain placs still i have a set of 2 10s that handle 1200 rms a piece but i was only sending 1000 out ofd a jl 1000/1 amp that was big money but you want to talk about loud i was probably hitting about 140 db out of a vented enclosure

Kicker L7's (square) or Alpine type E's I have a 10 L7 a few years old and it hits hard. Rattles the hatch. I'm tryin to sell some 10 MTX's in a memphis box. The MTX's are old but sound decent. The Memphis boxes (Ported) are decent. The subs arent bad either

[gfrg88]

what do you guys think of JL?? I dont know about subs, but im looking for some...best bang for the buck?

it depends on what you get from jl i mean there subs are decent but there amps are freakin hardcore but there kind of on the upper side for price but i would give jl 8.5 out of ten stars there deff good

[bank2me]

JL W7's 13.5 inch are decent.

[88ctlxi]

JL W7's 13.5 inch are decent.

my buddy has four of them in all custom boxs and all fiberglassed together in his tahoe i can hear him commin from no lie about 4 miles away

[gfrg88]

thats what ive been looking at, but 10" havent looked at amps yet really...

[bank2me]

Hell yea but they are $expensive$

[MessyHonda]

in my autobody class a guy had 2 12 inch w6 in his cutlass with a zapco amp....the amps are one of the best....i was like 3 feet away and my whole body was shaking and the vol was only at like 7....it was crazy

[ghettogeddy]

ya jl is over priced lol

its all about the setup

[88ctlxi]

very true very true i mean if you have a setup wit crossovers and everything to totally tune
the amp just right yeah you could make that sony slap just as hard but theres no way in hell a sony is going to last as long as the jl would at its full potential

thats awesome good to hear that the xplods arent bad but ill waste my money on good brand name shit sorry not to bash but the higher the price sometimes especially with jl the better you know what i mean

[adk683]

sick thats a steal but is it a true 1500 watts or is that the peak of it because the jls what they read say 1000/1 or 500/1 thats a true 1000 watts rms at 1 ohm or a true 500 watts rms at 1 ohm and is that rockford 1 ohm stable is the question

well yes thats totally true there arent many subs that can do that i was just saying that they have alot of capabilities thats all but its all opinion anyway pretty much all amps and subs what you do is try to find the least expensive but best one you can i mean im not bashing on any brand just stating opinions
