Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 872 Registered: Jun-06 | Ahhh...Lightning Audio... When you were talkin about the Pioneers above, did you mean Pioneer Subwoofers? The TS-W301R by any chance? if so, then I would go with the Pioneer over the Lightning Audio any day. Used to own them and they aint too bad for being cheap subs. Good SQ |
Silver Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 873 Registered: Jun-06 | If your looking for a cheap amp to go with them, this should do nicely: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6521_Hifonics+BXi+606.html Just make sure to get the SVC subs. |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 4198 Registered: Jun-05 | go 1 alpine type r and a hifonics amp to power it nice and cheap just build yourself your own box for better sound then a prefab and cheaper at the same time |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 4199 Registered: Jun-05 | you can get them on ebay cheap |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1382 Registered: May-07 | It would be 2 or 8ohm per sub, 1 or 4ohm final. |
Silver Member Username: Hurricanebr1anWestern Burbs of Chicago, IL Usa Post Number: 410 Registered: Sep-07 | if the subs arent internally wired then yes...he would want the d4 box. idk |

Silver Member Username: Jester_kingPost Number: 350 Registered: Apr-07 | i appreciate all the info, and about the LA sound thing not sure, lightning audio, the off brand from RF, there 150rms each, and would work perfectly with the amp, also i'm wondering if they would be better then my current sub a legacy subwoofer LWFX107, its 300rms so the internet says thanks |
Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sI get Bucks like Milwa... Post Number: 5253 Registered: Feb-06 | both the amp and sub subs you are wanting to buy suck. save a little more money and get something that will last. your current sub also blows major c0ck. |
Silver Member Username: Hurricanebr1anWestern Burbs of Chicago, IL Usa Post Number: 412 Registered: Sep-07 | "your current sub also blows major c0ck." kinda like you? |
Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1390 Registered: May-07 | "if the subs aren't internally wired then yes...he would want the d4 box." What do you mean? |
Silver Member Username: Hurricanebr1anWestern Burbs of Chicago, IL Usa Post Number: 414 Registered: Sep-07 | i though the final was DVC 2ohm, just one set of terminals. So it could be wired to 1 ohm. http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?showAll=N&g=510&i=2067DCVR 10&tp=112 "he single set of speaker terminals, and the 2-ohm impedance draws more power out of your mono sub amplifier." But maybe its SVC 2ohm final. |
Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1392 Registered: May-07 | I think were talking about 2 different things. I thought you were referring to the equipment I posted lol. |
Silver Member Username: Hurricanebr1anWestern Burbs of Chicago, IL Usa Post Number: 415 Registered: Sep-07 | yeah...ur right lol |
Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audib... Post Number: 1602 Registered: Mar-07 | What all of you guys are forgetting is a box lol. Without a properly designed box, everything you all have listed will sound like crap, no matter what the price is. |
Silver Member Username: Jester_kingPost Number: 351 Registered: Apr-07 | well thanks for all the input, but most of what i'm hearing is "your choices suck" yes i'm aware of that, if i had it my way, i would get 2 15" IDQ's on a sundown amp, but i'm trying to put myself though college also, so most my money is to that, so like i said my budget is a pretty set budget |
Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1397 Registered: May-07 | Honestly, everything at walmart is cr@p. I've heard my fair share of stuff from there, and it all is just plain depressing. You were looking to spend around $200-250 for everything correct? Well like I said earlier, my friend is selling his 2 12" concept HZ's in a sealed box all ready to go for $100+shipping for it all. They are barely even broke in, 250w rms apiece/dual 4 ohm vc. He just wants them gone, needs money for other things. He also has a Sony 1200w amp and I think he wants $25 for it. Just checked somewhere online and stated that amp does 500w rms, but I don't know how accurate that is since it's sony. I had 2 of these same subs, in about the exact same size box (1.25cf per chamber) and they played very nicely for the money. Good mixture of both SPL and SQ. They sound nearly identical to an alpine type-s (in the same box). I don't want it to sound like I'm just trying to pawn my friends stuff off on you, but I don't think you will find anything better for the money. If you're interested just gimme your area code and I can give you a quote tomarrow. |
