Lower powered sub?

Bronze Member Username: SlayaPost Number: 42 Registered: Mar-06 | Hey, I'm looking for a new sub woofer. I already have an amp which I'd like to use. The amp is an Alpine V12 MRV-F307, it's pretty old but still works fine. It put's out 80w RMS x 2 @ 4ohm bridged.. So i'd like to get a sub which is DVC so I can utilize both bridged channels getting a total of 160w RMS. I'm wondering what sub would be recomended in a sealed encloser 12". Not looking to spend too much but give me what you got! I'm looking at the RE RE, but it's a little expensive. I'm also considering a Phoenix Gold Octane R12d http://www.millionbuy.com/phgr12d.html How's this sub? I'm mainly going for SQ, but also ofcourse some decent SPL. System: Pioneer DEH-MP680P CDT KA-61 (frontstage) Alpine MRV-F307 |

The aa assassins are like $75 for the 12's. I dont have the assassins but some people on this forum do so they might be of more help. Heres the link for the assassins http://www.ascendantaudio.com/assassin_page.html |

Bronze Member Username: SlayaPost Number: 43 Registered: Mar-06 | So you like the RE's huh? just got a job, so money is not as much of a problem no more. The only thing which I need the sub to have is DVC, because my amp does 2x 80w rms so i'd need to connect each voice coil to 80w to get 160w total. Thanks. |

Bronze Member Username: SlayaPost Number: 44 Registered: Mar-06 | Marco, I meant the assasins weren't dual vc's as far as I could see.. maybe i'm wrong I didn't get to look at them too much (real busy right now  ) Thanks for the list Trevor, i'm gonna check it out. My amp is bridgable, but its a 4 channel amp, so its 80w RMS x 2 bridged. |
