New member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 5 Registered: Dec-06 | Hey guys, so this thread, i'm looking for a sub for one of my other cars. I listen to alot of ROCK and DEATH METAL, what would be a sub that has some great sound quality and quick response to those bass drum kicks, and also pack a punch right back at me, you know. I do listen to that occasional hip/hop, so having something that bumps would also be in my liking. I'd like to see what you guys would refer and I'd go take a look, and i'd be back to tell you guys which one I liked best. Thanks for all your help and for all who read! =D |

New member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 8 Registered: Dec-06 | Nice suggestions, looks like i'm going to check out the Alpine type R's. Right now I have a 15" RE SX sub. I just bought it brand new in the box, but thinking about selling it. I havn't hooked it up and listened to it yet, cuz I don't want to open the box if i'm just going to sell it again you know. Do you think that RE sub would be good, or should I look moer into the Alpine's? My budget is around $600.00. Hopes that answers must of your questions! =D |
New member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 9 Registered: Dec-06 | I'm actually looking at the Alpine SWX-1242D. Here is the link to the site for that sub http://www.alpine-usa.com/en/products/product.php?model=SWX-1242D Would anyone recommend this for my metal and rap preferences? |

Bronze Member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 11 Registered: Dec-06 | Hey Marc, I've noted that on my pad a few times, but never actually took a look into it. Right now I do have the RE SX 15", so i'm gunna go ahead and give that a try, and if I don't like it, i'ma definitly look into the JLW6V2. Thanks for the help! =D |
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 588 Registered: Aug-06 | the sx is a nice sub and i would pic over r's anyday i had two 12's r in a ported box my sx gets louder..its a sql sub leaned more to spl.. i would pick your sx over those r's overall better driver but new ones are overpriced...at least u got one |
Bronze Member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 12 Registered: Dec-06 | Everyone keeps talking about 12", so now it makes me very curious because no one seems to have answered it yet. What differences are there between 12" and 15"'s? |
Bronze Member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 13 Registered: Dec-06 | Also, now that I have a 15" RE SX specially made dual coil 4 ohms sub, I can only wire it down to 2ohms, so what amps would you guys recommend? I beleive this sub pushes out around 1000W RMS, someone told me, so I guess i'm tryin to look for a Class D monoblock amplifier with around 1000W RMS at 2 ohms correct? What do you guys recommend to me? |
Bronze Member Username: KorpseofdeathSan Lorenzo, California United States Post Number: 14 Registered: Dec-06 | One more thing to add, I have the Pioneer Premier DEH-P780MP headunit, with has a dedicated subwoofer RCA outlet that is 5V, if that helps for picking out an amplifer. =D Thanks for all that helps! |
