Anonymous | I am going to buy a Memphis 16MC 500D mono amp and was wondering what a good sound quality pair of tens would be. I want SQ with some thump also. Price range up to 250. Subs with rms wattage of 250-300 a piece. Thanks very much. Also are earthquake db's or dbx's good SQ subs? |

(www.acoustic-visions.com) $229 each shipped. Can't think of anything else that rings "SQ" where 2 could be powered by the MC-500d (good amp BTW) |

Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 1739 Registered: May-04 | For sound quality with that amount of power, I think that a pair of 10" Image Dynamics IDQ's would be up your alley. You should be able to find them around $250 for a pair on ebay, you can get them for 150 each on www.woofersetc.com |

Anonymous | Thanks for the input guys. Around 250 for the pair. I was thinking about either the two brands mentioned above. I'll check them out. Also how would the SQ be on the Infinity or Image compared to something like an Earthquake DB or DBX? |
Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 1744 Registered: May-04 | I like the SQ of both much better than those Earthquakes, but try to listen to them if possible and form your own opinion. |
Anonymous | Okay. I'll probly go with some ID's in a sealed box. Thanks for your opinion. BTW, what do you think of the memphis amp that I mentioned above? I have heard some favourable reviews. |
