Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4557 Registered: Oct-05 | i can say that the re sx is an excellent sql sub and it gets loud as fukkk. i tested my re sx 18 the other day with 1000wrms and it pounds. wait til i give it 1700wrms. it will be insane. |

Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 177 Registered: Jul-06 | have you ever heard an s.i. mag before? or the havoc? if so how would you compare them to the sx? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4565 Registered: Oct-05 | no. thats why i can only give you an opinion on the re sx 18 cause i have one. i don't like to guess what certain subs sound like. i would like to own both of those subs in the future though. |

|
Gold Member Username: Alex_fNear lexington, Ky Us Post Number: 1212 Registered: Nov-05 | his whole back seat is a sub box.lol. Btw you mentioned the SI mag up there. Chauncey brown said they didn't get very loud, but it sounded really good. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 182 Registered: Jul-06 | Atf, you build boxes? How much would you charge for 1 15" tuned to 33hz in a honda civic coupe... not sure of the sub yet lol. Just a price range. |
|
Gold Member Username: Alex_fNear lexington, Ky Us Post Number: 1213 Registered: Nov-05 | $75+ shipping for a plain box, just carpet. Tell me if you want anything extra on there, and i can give you a different quote. |

Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 185 Registered: Jul-06 | hey chad, what amp do you have on your sx now? what amp are you upgrading to? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4568 Registered: Oct-05 | i just tried it out with my jl 1000/1 and it pounds. i just ordered a orion 2500d which will do 1700wrms at 2 ohms so i will get louder. the re sx 18 i have is a dual 1ohm sub. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 186 Registered: Jul-06 | what if i put this http://cgi.ebay.com/HIFONICS-BXi1606D-Class-D-Mono-Amplifier-Amp-BXi-1606D_W0QQi temZ300013283032QQihZ020QQcategoryZ18797QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem and get the dual 2 ohm sub, you think that would be too much power for daily? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4571 Registered: Oct-05 | don't expect 1600wrms at 1 ohm from that amp. that amp is over rated and you will only see around 1200wrms anyways. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 188 Registered: Jul-06 | yea thats what im thinkin lol... How far is that shop from you? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4572 Registered: Oct-05 | its like 30 min drive when there isn't traffic. i went there before to watch a db drag and when i went inside the store to look around, they had re subs. i was surprised cause i thought you had to order re subs direct from the company. here is a link to that store. http://www.advancedcarcreations.com/products.htm |

Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6066 Registered: Dec-04 | I have never heard the SI mag but personally wasnt that impressed with the SX. People who I know and trust their opinion's have heard the mag and have nothing but great things to say about it. It's pricey but nice. |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4575 Registered: Oct-05 | don't get me wrong. i am not going all re now. i still like treo. the re sx 18 i have now will be on sale in about a month or two. i am just using this for now cause i always wanted a 18 inch sub and the price was too good to pass up. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 189 Registered: Jul-06 | i wanna try the sx and mag, which do you think i should do first? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4576 Registered: Oct-05 | if you got the cash then go for the mag. i always value jame's opinion alot so you should listen to him. like i said before, i've never heard a mag so i couldn't comment on them. its just they are kinda pricey and i don't want to spend that much to try them out. |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6067 Registered: Dec-04 | I have heard better thinks from about the Havoc then both of the two mentioned above. Baseball on this forum had a sx 15 then 2 re se 12's then a ava 15 and he said that his havoc destroys them all. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 190 Registered: Jul-06 | so the havoc then? its only 450 n its 2ohm dvc |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6070 Registered: Dec-04 | yeah I think Chad will change up the VC configuration for a extra $25 if needed. |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 191 Registered: Jul-06 | who is chad? how do i get in touch with him? Could I power it correctly with this... http://cgi.ebay.com/HIFONICS-BXI2006D-BRUTUS-2000w-MONO-CAR-AMPLIFIER-AMP_W0QQit emZ270012655648QQihZ017QQcategoryZ18797QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem and do you think ill need a new alt. or can i just do w/ my stock one and run a new battery? |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6073 Registered: Dec-04 | www.ascendantaudio.com Chad is the owner of the company. I don't like the low end Hifonic's amps but to answer your question would it work? I guess so but I wouldnt power a ferrari with a 1.8 liter Hugo motor would you? |
|
Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 192 Registered: Jul-06 | nice comp. lol. Any reccomendations? dont wanna spend more then $450... |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6074 Registered: Dec-04 | thats a decent amount of money for a good amp, you could get a orion 1200d for that price. I don't have the time to search amps for you know but maybe later I will and post back. Call Chad and see what he has to say he is a cool guy. |

|
Gold Member Username: Alex_fNear lexington, Ky Us Post Number: 1216 Registered: Nov-05 | It isnt really that old. And the fact that it is like $450. |
