Silver Member Username: Chevyfan502Digital DesignsElemental De... Post Number: 115 Registered: May-06 | why would u say type r's or kicker cvx??? you could get an Audioque HDC3, a pair of Audioque sd2.5's, Fi BL, or Soundsplinter RL-P, just to name a few. hell would have to freeze over before i would get type r's or a cvx over them subs....correct me if im wrong. i guess i just like deep, smooth, loud a55 bass. unless hes talkin 200-300 for sub and amp....then AQ sd2 and a matching 400rms mono to go with it would sound just fine and dandy. |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3625 Registered: Sep-06 | There is nothing wrong with kicker CVX's good sub here and weel worth the money if you buy them online.

Gold Member Username: Naledge503Portland, Or Post Number: 3681 Registered: Jun-06 | Not in my situation. What exactly have you ran Joey? I asked you this in another thread a while back and you ignored me. I havent seen you say anything that you have ran. In my situation I had the sd2.5's in a box made for the kickers 4.3Cuft at 32hz. Kickers with 1800rms and the sd2.5's with 1100rms. Both in the same vehicle, a 94' Bravada. The sd2.5's were louder and sounded better to me. Please tell me the conditions that you heard these under. |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3629 Registered: Sep-06 | Sorry if I ignored you 3cf. 36Hz straight drop in on a ZX750.1 and to me CVX's had it in SQ. |

So am I out my mind or do I know what loud actually is? |

Not a bad # for all that air space. Defintely good for the price. If you are hitting 155+ daily than I can see where CVX's are not loud to you. lol |

Silver Member Username: Dirtrider125Post Number: 175 Registered: Apr-07 | 2 cvx will be loud to 99% of people that hear em |

IMO, pick up a 12" RE SE for 158 shipped on ebay and build a ported box for it. it would sound nice and clean and bump hard (maybe harder than 2 12" duals) or, pick up two of em and run a nine.1 or an audioque 1200d and port em. you'll be wellllllll off with 2 12" SE's (about 320 bucks) |

When I had 1 DD9515 and a 1 RD 1750, I was doing a 148.2 in a trunk car. |

If you are hitting 155+ daily than I can see where CVX's are not loud to you. lol" ^^^ agreeing with you was not making a recommendation over any others. just stating what our Cvx's were doing. "When I had 1 DD9515 and a 1 RD 1750, I was doing a 148.2 in a trunk car" ummmmm, DD9515 is MUCH better than the CVX's.. Would expect that... "no offense, but if someone builds a box for 2 cvx's (not hating on them) to hit 147.2 then that same box MOST LIKELY would have terrible sq. " The boxes were built for SQL.. leaning more towards the SQ (trial and error). Not towards a super high TL #. The 147.2 wa achieved after SQ was where we wanted it. Wasn't even gonna get it metered but a car show popped up and it was there so we went ahead and put it in just for curiousity. |

Silver Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 368 Registered: May-07 | with a burp box it would be louder.. Just how much I do not know. again ours are not geared towards that.but still nowhere near what 2 DD's will do... If We wanted #'s like that in this install.. We wouldn't be runnin' Keeker CVX's lol with this setup we get good SQ and good air movement.. 147+ is not a bad # for a SQ install.. and would win or at least place in most usac stock 0-600 comps. Hell i won 0-600 stock in Lake Charles La. with a 145.5 last Sept.. That was 3 systems ago lol. Y'all are up there in Monroe area, right? We been talkin about heading that direction to check out an event one day.. I want to get with Canaan on an enclosure build... But b4 I do, I need to decide whether to keep my solo X's or find new subs for my Jeep. My 12 cu ft is to much enclosure for my Cherokee. Need to find a pair of 15's that would be happy with my 2- bxi2005D( i know, i know) with about 8 cu ft of box and still put out better #'s than my Solo X's. |

Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audib... Post Number: 1727 Registered: Mar-07 | The port I used for my DD in comps was the same port I used daily. Was extrenely musical. But yeah, We are thinking about hosting a show up here in monroe after "scrapin the coast". Then in August there is a USACI show also in Monroe. Should come up here and check it out man. |

Silver Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 369 Registered: May-07 | Well Nick... Keep me posted on your local events... I checked out the "scrapin the coast" main page and didn'y see any info on audio comp. You gotta link for info on the audio portion of the show? Or at least details?As for Aug. , I am definetly interested.. I like Usaci events as that is what I have experience with.. Now back to Logan Doe.. I am glad you found Ecoustics.. But asking about Dual or Insignia tells me that you dont have much experience with car audio.. Which is okay, because you are in the right place to learn.. Not everyone always agrees at all times, but usually you can get the just of things buy the answers to your questions.. But I will be willing to bet that at least 99.99999% will agree that both Dual and Insignia are not worth their weight in pig sh!t! Hope all this helps. |
