New member Username: Pkwon5Park Ridge, IL United States Post Number: 1 Registered: Mar-09 | Im going to buy a sub in a couple of weeks. I was looking at a budget of 250-300. I am right now considering buying a power acoustik mofo sub maybe one 15" or 12". I was wondering guys is this sub good and are there any other that hit as hard? Just throw some names out there because im not knowledgible in this area. Also what kind of amp you guys recommend cheaper the better but at least descent up 400 |

Is that for the sub only, or sub and amp? "Also what kind of amp you guys recommend cheaper the better but at least descent up 400" ^What?? |

HU, wiring, etc What kind of sound do you want? SPL - loud SQ - sound quality SQL - mixture of both What is your total budget? |

ROFL. Please don't do any of this. We need to know your complete budget, everything you need, and the type of music you listen to. |
New member Username: Pkwon5Park Ridge, IL United States Post Number: 2 Registered: Mar-09 | around 500-700 budget want a system more for spl or a mixture. Thats why i was thinking power acoustik mofo bc i heard they hit pretty hard. |

Gold Member Username: Hittin1TEAM REVOLUTIONLake Charles... Post Number: 2730 Registered: May-07 | please don't listen to Mike. He obviousaly know nothing about car audio(as far as GReat subs compared to well known brands AND where to purchase online). GReat subs- RD audio Fi Audio, DD audio (digital Designs) Treo Cascade Audio- (no esxperience-strickly word of mouth) Audioque Audiopulse AB IA Mach5 many many more stay away from JL audio- many better for the price kicker subs Rockford Fosgate their are too many lessa expensive better quality subs out there which company owners spend money on R&D instead of Marketing- Learn from our mistakes Obviously Mike hasn't learned yet look at post count and you can see that he need to hang out on here and learn something.

New member Username: Pkwon5Park Ridge, IL United States Post Number: 3 Registered: Mar-09 | any of guys use power acoustik though? just wondering and i know crutchfield sucks they are a good place to look stuff up but not to buy. So whats the cheapest but gives a good bang for ur buck? if i can get a good sub for cheap that would be great because i can use the money for other stuff. Ill tell u the car i have its a 96 750il with kenwodd nav unit and vid. i got it off ebay for new for less than 700 cructhfield wanted 1200 when i bought it. |
