Silver Member Username: Mrskullz1Brooklyn, New York Post Number: 340 Registered: Feb-07 | are you limited to only those 2 subs? whats ur budget? im sure we over here can get you much better stuff all within your budget also do you have amp/wiring etc? and if you choose to give your budget...what are u looking for? sq (sound quality?) spl (Sound pressure level...basically how LOUD the sub is) or sql (best of both worlds of sq and spl). |

Gold Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 1186 Registered: Dec-06 | Well, you're not going to hit much with a sh*tty amp. You really should consider saving money and getting a real setup. I understand your situation, because that is what I did as well. I regret it now. How much are you going to pay for those subs? BTW..senior at Woodbury? I graduated from Maple Grove last year...lol |

New member Username: WhtieshadowWodbury, Mn Usa Post Number: 3 Registered: May-07 | probably less that 120 for both its about 40% the shelf price. ya im at woodbury |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1080 Registered: Dec-06 | Yeah if you are limited to what they have at Worst Buy then definately get the Alpine Type-R SWR-1242D. But I have to say that their price on those is ridiculous. They have them for $225.99 when you can get the exact same woofer online for under $140. |

Gold Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 1187 Registered: Dec-06 | So you're only paying $120 total? I would look at Phoenix Gold ZRs on ebay. Same price and better than both of those. If you are 100% set on those, I would go with the Infinity. However, the Alpines would be the best bet at Best But if you must buy from there. |

New member Username: WhtieshadowWodbury, Mn Usa Post Number: 4 Registered: May-07 | look at it from my point of view the two subs i have now were a joke to begin with. they was 20 bucks each and they sound like crap anything from best buy will be better. its pretty much these subs but not exactly.http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail.aspx?MfrCode=RDM&MfrPartNumber=MSW150& CategoryCode=3083 anything would sound better |

New member Username: WhtieshadowWodbury, Mn Usa Post Number: 6 Registered: May-07 | thats a good question. it means "real crapy sub that pound like sh#t" |
|
Gold Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 1190 Registered: Dec-06 | haha yeah I have seen those. But even so, why upgrade slightly when you can save a little more and have a kick a** system? It just seems like such a waste to buy things that are a slight upgrade. If you must buy from BB, go with Alpine first, then Infinity and Rockford. |
