Anyone have these subs in their car? Which one would u recommend for the TL?

 

DD is a pure SPL woofer. What kind of bass are you looking for and how much power, and whats your budget,

 

beatin down the block, enough power to get the right amount of juice out of a 180amp alternator and I have no budget really. 3 grand max?

 

then go for it. Look into RE audio to then. How about 2 Kicker 15" L7s ported.

 

DD is a good company but they are more toward competition. Look into Resonant Engineering another underground company like DD that you never hear of until you go to car audio competitions but they have a sub for almost anything and they are priced a little bit better. They have 5 different models ( RE, SE, SX, XXX, and MT). RE is the lowest model basically just a entry level and the MT is top of the line competition. I had 2 10" SE's in my CL and it hurt my ears. I've also seen a XXX in a Subaru Outback with 2 inches of roof flex and the rearview mirror fell off within 30 seconds of installing. Don't mean to change your mind but I'd recommend these over any sub anyday. They have the clean look like JL but at 1/2 the cost. www.reaudio.com I believe don't remember it's been a few months since I've been in the car audio scene now that i'm deaf from a work accident

 

I've heard of RE, pretty exclusive shit just like DD, and I no damn well I don't want to fuck with any kicker subs...and 15's at that? FUCK THAT

 

I've dealt with RE and Kicker, not many complaints about Kicker besides RE handles so much better. Whatever you listen to the RE's will take, they are very tight and responsive. I've play everything from Rap to Rock to Country to straight test tones for 2 days straight.

 

Cant have said it any better.

 

hm... RE seems like an option, how much do the xxx run?

 

from like $400 to $500

 

Thnx alot I'm going to look into it.

 

Call up RE. Usaully is there is no dealer around they will send it to u. Ummm what are u gonna run? One xxx 15"

 

15 is gonna need too much air space man...i need something efficent and space savin, most likely a xxx 12" because if i get a sub, i'd have to get a custom mdf box made and then fiberglass it later on.
I like how the RF 2000bd amp is lookin...fuckin huge too, could be a nice fit with a amp rack made on the top deck

 

I only want one sub, and when i open my trunk, I just want it to be like DAMNNN its only a 12??
My friend who owns this local shop down here introduced me to DD and man that shit had me convinced. He has a SL55 with one 8 or 10" DD in a custom ported box, i swear that shit sounded louder than two 15"s MAN.....He an authorized dealer for DD to so I wouldn't have to worry about where to get it. I think I might be able to get RE from them too.

But I was thinking if I go with one 12", how do you find out how much air space is needed? i cant really find it on the site.
deciding between the XXX and the SX...

 

go with the xxx but if he is a DD dealer then go with single http://www.ddaudio.com/dd/caraudio/w...p?series=9500f

 

u know what the retail on that is?

 

I think 600 to 700 hundred.

 

which u think would need more air space this or the XXX

 

That I dont know. But see how much you can get both for. So your amp produces 2000 watts RMS at 1ohm right.

 

im decidin between that or the 1000bd, depending on the sub i get, I don't have it YET. After I sell off the bullshit system I have...im gonna get this system.

 

XXX + 1500wattsRMS + Ported box =

hmmm SQ should be loud enough for me....gonna look into it, thnx for all the help

 

ok go for it man. Pretty sure you will be happy with it.

 

I'm really anxious to get this shit...haha
Now I just have to worry about selling the system I have....

 

pm sent

 

i thought you were deaf?

 

 

Not deaf from the subs. I went deaf about 3 weeks ago after falling thru a roof head first. I still have hear in my left ear but completely deaf in my right. Bad thing is I just install my subs into my beater the day before.

 

ay what kind of warranty does RE have?

 

off the top of my head i don't remember, I've been out of the car audio business for a couple months, should have never quit working for the place i was at then maybe I would've never fell thru a roof working at my new job. Oh well I enjoy sitting around now informing people about car audio while collecting workmens comp. Only downside I CAN'T HERE GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

 

1 year

 

I'm just waiting to sell my system and I figured the only way to get em is direct thru RE. Local guy is selling one for $180 in a custom box, the 12" SE, should i get it and just get another SE later on or what?

In the mean time, pix of the car I was talking about with the DD





that fuckin 10" puts up some serious game man....shit had me holdin my nuts from fallin off

 

your 17 and thats your car

 

Is that your friends shop?? that looks hot man,,,

 

yea....very reputable too. www.innovativerides.com
He has worked on some of the sickest cars

 

i suggest you read (hint: a local shop owners car)

 

back to my question...is $180 for a SE 12" worth it
