Silver Member Username: Dub_cPost Number: 183 Registered: Mar-06 | Right now my amp(Audiobahn A8000V) is not powreing anything, I was wondering, are these subs any good? http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=16658 I think I have seen other brands of shallow subs but those are the only ones I know of. ARE SHALLOW SUUBS ANY GOOD? |

Post Number: 2067 Registered: Feb-06 | i actually heard those and they aren't that bad. if i had a truck and couldn't get a regular sub to fit i'd get those. elemental design and jl also makes them, and i think arc audio. probably more companies but since i don't buy them not really know any others. |
Silver Member Username: Dub_cPost Number: 184 Registered: Mar-06 | Thanks, well I do have a truck, hey I found these http://www.crutchfield.com/S-G4v8PzaqcZ0/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=520&I=130TSS3041 I dont know what the difference is with these. I am wondering if they are loud and how good they sound. |

Post Number: 2069 Registered: Feb-06 | the first is a 10" and the second is 12". the one i heard didn't sound to bad, not the best though. i think they have better sq than the regular pioneer subs from what little i got to hear of it. listened to it beside a truck with a w3, about the same output just not as good sq. i think they were 10"s' if i remember correctly. |
Silver Member Username: Dub_cPost Number: 185 Registered: Mar-06 | HHHMMMM,,,, I am unsure, I will probebly go with 1 later on with 2 10" Kicker CommpVX's in a .9 selaed box, think that will sound louder and better? |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 2070 Registered: Feb-06 | i wouldn't mix subs, wouldn't sound right. stick with the cvx's, they'll be plenty loud in a truck. |

Bronze Member Username: Motomattic3Post Number: 36 Registered: Oct-06 | My brother has a 12" of that sub and it sounds pretty good for how shallow it is. he has it hooked up to a e1200 amp that he got off ebay for $75. its in his 89 toyota single cab pickup. he had to make a custom box but he has the pioneer and a 6"sub in there don't sound that bad for how cheap it was |
Bronze Member Username: Motomattic3Post Number: 37 Registered: Oct-06 | boston acoustics also makes a shallow depth sub gtr12 http://www.bostonacoustics.com/car/car_product.aspx?category_id=17&family_id=108 &product_id=304 |
Silver Member Username: Audioguy22S.F., Cal. Post Number: 302 Registered: Jul-05 | That Boston is not a sub! its a Radiator! If Boston made a shallow sub, I have one! As far as the Pie go's, This second gen sub sounds really good! much better than the first gen that i removed. |
Bronze Member Username: Motomattic3Post Number: 46 Registered: Oct-06 | what the hell is a radiator. I thought that was part of the car not a woofer |
Silver Member Username: Audioguy22S.F., Cal. Post Number: 303 Registered: Jul-05 | As far as I know a radiators came out in the early 70's. The concept was to move 50% more air with only one woofer. It looks like Boston took it a step further and added a way to tune the rad to better match the woofer? If Boston is selling them, they must work ok? |
