what's the best sub system you can get (for decent amount of $)

 

i'm getting a playa price on an alumapro alchemy 10". never heard one, but i heard they sound good. but for the price, i'll risk it.

 

the alchemy sounds great imo.

 

eclipse aluminum 88120 DVC!

 

DITTO!!!! i'd say everyone that listens to my system absolutly loves it.......the alum's sound unbelievable......and i LOVE em.........make sure youve got good mid's and hi's tho......cause those subs can be LOUD!!!!

 

Dare I say W7.....its pricey, but AWESOME!!!!

 

I love how you guys just throw out brands and models without having a clue what the guys music tastes are.

So I'll ask.... what's your music taste? Rap/Rock/R&B/Jazz/Classical/...dare I say Country???

Are you looking for something that can be heard from a few blocks away?

Are you willing to sacrifice trunk space for better sound?

What's your budget?

 

alumapro is awesome i had 2 alumapro alusonic bp-10s in my old car it sounded great i cant tell you how many times people asked me if i had 15s
they have their bp series in 8 10 and 12 so you can get whatever you want and they come in boxes made specifically for the speakers' specs so they sound right

 

i only play hard ass gangsta shit...i wanna let people know i'm comin blocks and blocks away...i don't wanna put down millions...but i don't wanan sacrifice qulaity for $$


oh forgot about trunk space...i thought the trunk was made for sound system in the first place:P i really don't need a trunk...that's what back seats are made for

 

sounded like me when i got my first car. i had a civic si hatch with a rockford power 15" dvc running an 800a2 amp which put out 1200 watts at peak. needless to say it bumped. thank god i'm looking for sq over spl now.

 

if you like hard gangsta shit, then I still recommend the eclipse aluminum 88120 DVC.

 

IDMAX

 

eclipse 88120's play everything......and everything sounds awsome........some ghetto ass lil' flip and eastside boy's......all the way to my bruce springstien mix.......

 

Yup or the Adire Brahma. I think the 15" is coming out or is already out. Here is their 12"


Cost to fun ratio can't be beat. $379 for a 12"

 

aren't they power hungry? that means you're gonna need a good amp. i'd go with zapco or brax to run a sub. i heard xtant amps are good too.

 

My Xtant 1001dx wasn't enough to push my 2 IDMAX's. I just replaced it with a 1000bd to each sub.

umm, he said for a decent amount of money... does that mean he's on a budget, or money isn't an object?

 

money is of course the issue, but if i have to spend a few extra dollars to get to tha next level, then so be it...i just don't wanna spend like a ridiculous amount of money for quality that i could almost match with somethin a little cheaper if that makes any sense at all...i've looked at the eclipse subs+amps and kinda of like those the best right now...but i haven't really gone outside of eclipse yet

as of now i'm kinda leanin towards it

 

ID max subs cost major bread. I picked up the eclipses from ebay. Both brand new for $400.

 

ohhhhh....ebay....must try my hand at this...but i think i've been talked into eclipse...thanks everyone

 

eclipse is the way to go......ps, theyre power hungry so dont cut it short on the amp........i'd do an eclipse amp to the subs anyway

 

my intention's eactly

 

I'm looking for low end that gives definition and punch to bass drums/bass guitar. I'm not interested in changing/modifying anything other than the rear speakers. Is there a drop in product that works well? My budget is $300.

Thanks in advance.

Good suggestions. Did we discuss how much trunk space he can spare to a box? IF space isnt too tight I would suggest a Digital Designs 9515 $480, 2 Crossfire BMF1000Ds $420 ea., and a mdf ported box...about 4 cubes or larger depending on you.
