Looking to replace my 2 Kappa Perfect 12.1
|
Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 374 Registered: Feb-05 | I have 2 Kappa Perfect 12.1 which I bought a couple years ago. My new car's trunk isn't as large as my previous suv, so I am going to be replacing them with a single 12. I have an Orion HCCA 250 that pumps out 800w @ 1ohm, but I need a sub to match it. I'm really into sound quality but I like them to get loud and low. I've heard great things about some Eclipse stuff, but I need some suggestions. Looking to spend between 150-300 for one(large range I know, but I want to see my options). Thanks |

Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 375 Registered: Feb-05 | What kind of box would you recommend for the Eclipse? Also, is there going to be much difference from my Perfects to the TI? Just checked, having trouble finding Eclipse Ti for sale, anyone know a good site with good prices? |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 6335 Registered: Jun-04 | try an idmax 12 d2 will hit low and hard with good sq |
|
Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 376 Registered: Feb-05 | yeah, i just thought about that this morning. I have to find a sub at 1ohm. Any recommendations on a box? Sealed/porters Xcuft? I think sealed is better for s/q.... |

Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 377 Registered: Feb-05 | ALso, how loud is the idmax going to be compared to the 2 perfects? one thing i didn't like was that I wish they'd get a little louder and lower. Will the idmax do this? |
|
Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 378 Registered: Feb-05 | Sorry about the multi posts, but I see the D2 is only rated at 400rms, would pushing 800@1ohm really be a smart idea? |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Post Number: 3515 Registered: Jan-05 | the idmax is rated at 1000wrms, it would make a great sq sub, and probally be just as loud if not a little louder than the perfects, might also wanna check out AA arsenal, mmats dreadnaught, re se, rl-p, to name a few. |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 6343 Registered: Jun-04 | you were looking at the wrong sub howie that wasnt the idmax 12 |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 6344 Registered: Jun-04 | kowing that you like the perfects and me having heard the 10's I seriously doubt youll want to check out the subs mentioned by dustin your definatley an sq guy predominately and the fact you said you wanted it loud and low id say idmax 12 all the way and they dont need huge boxes....they might cost more than you wanted to spend but well worth buying |

Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 379 Registered: Feb-05 | Yes, Ben if I decide to go this route I will be selling them. |

Silver Member Username: GoonPost Number: 380 Registered: Feb-05 | Sean, you think sealed or ported for this sub? How does some CDT Sl-61 comps with 125w to each sound as company? |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 6347 Registered: Jun-04 | sealed for sq on the idmax 12.....as far as the cdt's I dont he any experience with them |
