Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 6753 Registered: Jul-06 | No Fi, tinsel slap issues....... SoundSplinter RL-P Stereo Integrity MAG Ascendant Audio Havoc ^^^^ Those are all EXCELLENT subs that would work well on 1000w |

Silver Member Username: BonhamdNorthern, Michigan USA Post Number: 511 Registered: Nov-07 | i thought Fi moved to woven? |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sThe kids love my rhyme... Post Number: 4720 Registered: Feb-06 | M.S. there will be no more tinsel slap issues, man. Stop pushing that. How can you all recommend a sub not knowing what he wants out of it or how much he has to spend? |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 6757 Registered: Jul-06 | He said sound quality, I told him 3 of the best SQ woofers in that power range. Fi Qs have tinsel slap issues, sorry can't deny what you see on the forums over and over again. Now of they started using woven tinsels in the spider that would be great. But I have not heard anything about that????? |

After all the time I said that Scott should go woven he said "There's reasons we don't..." and look(!) guess what they have now, WOVEN tinsels! |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sThe kids love my rhyme... Post Number: 4723 Registered: Feb-06 | You must have missed the thread on this site that showed that they are using woven tinsels. Also, he said he wants high quality and said he is looking for both sound and quality which is very vague in my opinion. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 6759 Registered: Jul-06 | So Fi uses woven tinsels now? Well your right I must have missed that........ Links to any info about it? That may actually make me consider Fi for future setups....... |

There was another thread a while ago but I dont know where it is. https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/459823.html |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 6764 Registered: Jul-06 | So do all Fi subs have that now? |

Bronze Member Username: OriginalfinchPost Number: 11 Registered: Mar-08 | Im looking for high quality. a mix of clearity and sound is preferred. Im onlylooking for 1 sub though, its going into a 2007 ford ranger ext cab. I know the amp is good enough for one sub, just not sure which is best. I had two type S in a thunderbird and it was pretty weak so I don't want to go that route |

Gold Member Username: LoudonPost Number: 2337 Registered: Jun-04 | how on earth do matching subs and amps sound better? explain that to me how it works rd alpha single spider ftw |
|
Bronze Member Username: OriginalfinchPost Number: 14 Registered: Mar-08 | Im looking to spend around 800 on the sub alone. I have never heard of any of those brands suggested... whats the difference between them... sorry but explain this like im a child hahaha |

Gold Member Username: Mike11202DD9515G VFL 200.1 = : , Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 1582 Registered: Nov-06 | You could buy my Sound Splinter RL-S, best out of all those listed. I believe its one of the best SQ subs on the market. |

|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Lagrange, GA USA Post Number: 1671 Registered: Mar-06 | Single spider RD Alpha would work good for you as well. 1000 rms on one is like angels with drums. Ask Chad Lee  Kevin |

Post Number: 2276 Registered: Dec-06 | "You can see the BTL with woven tinsels." they arnt woven like DD tensils they are squished inbetween the spiders but in any case this eliminates the tensil slap problem. I was very happy when i saw the sub and noticed there werent exposed tensils. "So do all Fi subs have that now?" i believe so but im not 100% positive |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sThe kids love my rhyme... Post Number: 4745 Registered: Feb-06 | For 800 I would go with a Hertz Mille 3000 (12"), unless you go fit a 15 inch. In that case I would go with a Hertz Mille 3800. I can get you information if you are interested. |

Silver Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 465 Registered: Aug-07 | if u want pure sound quality and can fit 2 12's. then JL w6s should sound superb |

Silver Member Username: WinterfreshpimpChisago, MN America Post Number: 617 Registered: Mar-06 | they sell little sticky pieces of felt now to put on the cone so theres no slap |
|
Bronze Member Username: TimbucPost Number: 15 Registered: Dec-06 | (2) 12w6's I would have to agree. On a PDX 1000 staright out will sound bannans. |

Gold Member Username: JkidderGunshine , State Flawda Post Number: 3362 Registered: Nov-05 | great list^^^^ g/l finding used 9112 tho |
|
Bronze Member Username: OriginalfinchPost Number: 15 Registered: Mar-08 | Thanks for all the info though, but have only heard of JL (im canadian)out of any of your suggestions. lol so maybe they are american brands. The problem with puttin 2 subs in the back is that the floor lifts in the middle for the drivetrain underneath i believe. Could i put the box on 4 legs and still have it secured to the ground so it doesnt bounce around? |
