New member Username: Pyro68Post Number: 1 Registered: Apr-09 | I've already got a amp but i need new subs cause my old ones got stolen. I've got a budget of around 500$. I'm looking for subs that hit lows/mids hard but not just loud they need to have some accuracy. my amp is a mtx thunder 942 and rated at 940x1 at 4 ohms. so 470x2 at 2ohms. i am looking for either one 15" or 2 12". any help would be appreciated. thanks |

New member Username: Pyro68Post Number: 2 Registered: Apr-09 | i think im gonna stick iwth the amp i have cause i dont have much cash.i think i might just get one 15 instead of 2 12. and where would i be able to get a ported box for it that is quality and tuned to re specs? thanks for the help everybody its appreciated |
Gold Member Username: TurnmatRacine, Wi Post Number: 1018 Registered: Feb-07 | If you want a single 15 i would go with the Audioque sdc 2.5 And you would have to contact a box builder or build one yourself. A good builder is Mike Ingram- Ami creations |

New member Username: Pyro68Post Number: 3 Registered: Apr-09 | what about this box for the single re se15"http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem%26%26item%3D150206119721&ssPageNam e=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=005 and i should get the dvc 2 ohm not 4 cause i need it to have final impedance of 4 ohm in bridged mode for 940 watts |
Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 1510 Registered: Aug-07 | dvc 2ohm? - YES, that will let you wire it to a final impedance of 4ohms get that box?? - NO SIR, prefab boxes are a noob mistake and making your own can be cheaper and provide a better sound (provided you built it to specs) |
New member Username: Pyro68Post Number: 4 Registered: Apr-09 | well i need a box soon. how long does it take to get one made?? like a good one ported and tuned and are they more expensive? |
Bronze Member Username: Woofers4lifeLexington, Tennessee Post Number: 32 Registered: Mar-09 | its not very hard to do it yourself and its cheap just the cost of the MDF board. |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 5064 Registered: Jun-05 | anybody that downs his amp you dont know what your talking about. it puts out its respected power and lasts forever. Ive had mine over 5 yrs now not a single issue with it. I would say to attempt to build one yourself if you have the tools and actually no how to use a saw otherwise hit up fishercustoms or ami |
