Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 526 Registered: Jun-06 | Alright people, I've finally saved up what I need to buy a system but, I really don't know what I want to get. Before I started looking around on the internet, I went to a local Memphis dealer and within my price range, I would be able to get two 12" Memphis PR's, the new Memphis 500.1 amplifier, and a ported enclosure that fits the PR's Specs. Searching around online, I found some Subwoofers that im really interested: 12" FI Q x1 https://ssl.perfora.net/www.ficaraudio.com/sess/utn;jsessionid=15455550a5f359b/shopdata/0020_Q/product_overview.shopscript 12" SoundStream T5-12 x1 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5372 12" Mmats P3.0 12 x1 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=2159 12" MB Quart RWE-304 x1 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=3170 12" RE Audio SE12 x1 http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=4911 12" Boston Acoustics G512-4 x1 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3800_Boston+Acoustics+G512-4.html 10" Diamond Audio D610D4 x2 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_5354_Diamond+Audio+D610D4.html Here are the Specs on the Memphis PR's: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3005_Memphis+15-PR124D.html I know that this is a big list to choose from, but what im really looking for is a combination of SQ and SPL, but more SQ over SPL. If you guys think something in the list would be a better choice than the Memphis setup, do you think you could also list an amplifier that would run good with it? Thanks! |

Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 530 Registered: Jun-06 | Ya, I like the RE also but, I'd only have enough money for one unless I saved up awhile longer to get two, but I really don't wanna wait any longer! I plan on ordering everything probably in like 2 weeks once im done paying off some bills. |
Silver Member Username: Kyle_lowePost Number: 290 Registered: Apr-06 | it would be worth it to save up and wait |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 531 Registered: Jun-06 | Also, im not really sure if two SE's could fit in my trunk. Im sure they use a lot of space in the trunk. The car im installing it in is a 1996 Grand Prix SE. |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 532 Registered: Jun-06 | I went onto RE's web page to see the enclosure Specs for the SE and it brought up Ported and Optimal. What does it mean by Optimal? http://www.reaudio.com/specs.html#sp_se |
Gold Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 1585 Registered: Mar-06 | optimal is the perfect size for that subwoofer....aka what size you will want to build... i vote dual 2 ohm 10" re se's and a kicker zx1500 or a sundown sae1000 and a 12" Fi Q....both setups would sound sweet |
Gold Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 1586 Registered: Mar-06 | i fluckin love the look of these subs too! http://cgi.ebay.com/2-RE-AUDIO-SE10-10-SE-SUBS-RESONANT-ENGINEERING-pair_W0QQite mZ170145488767QQihZ007QQcategoryZ3291QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem 320 for the subs... http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_info.php?products_id=372 275 for amp if you call elemental designs and ask one of the techs to send you the best of the b-stock amps, they're good dudes and will make arrangements... IMO thatd be a SWEET sounding 600 dollar setup |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 533 Registered: Jun-06 | compairing the memphis PR's to the SE and Q, how much of a difference would there be in SPL? |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 534 Registered: Jun-06 | Ive heard a lot of good things about that amplifier. Where can I find it's Specs? |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 535 Registered: Jun-06 | Ok, I couldn't resist those 10" SE's so I bought em'! Once I get those i'll get that amp. |
