ok right now i have a single 12" alpine type r... i love the sub but its time for upgrade... im thinking a pair of 15" type r on an aq2200. any other suggestions for the money? im on a tight budget, and i love the bass of the single 12 i could only imagine 2 15's.... i have a 98 silverado 250amp alt... i didnt do the big 3 yet but will in future. so does anyone have any suggestions or comments
a kenwood 1800w max, im starting fresh and i want to stay under $1000, the reson im thinking the 15" type r's is because the price is cheep and i know the 12's sound great. but a single fi btl 18" is in my mind too... im just gettin a good deal on a aq2200 from a friend for 130 bucks only been used for a month
yes it works just fine, the kid is rich and im his best friend so i get a deal on it. and for the type r's i can get for 200 a peice brand new. i want to 15's or 1 18" but the btls are on back order and i dont feel like waiting
hmmm good point kyle.... thanks for the info i never even thought of the ssd. could i still use the same 2200 amp for the ssd and give them each 1k rms
just but the aq2200 for that price... so that gives u 870 bucks to spend... get a pair of FI BLs.... then u still have money to build a nice box... or pay some one on the forum to make u a nice box... that would be a pretty loud set up. way better than ur type r 10s... depending on the car and box u might break a 150 with that
the thing is right now i has a 1000 fine for possesion of mj so money is tight thats why i think i want to go with the ssd... do you think 2 15" ssd would be louder then 2 15" type r?
dBlk, that would also work but what he decides seems to be very dependent on his budget. he is going to need a beefed up electrical system to run that aq 2200.
if you are willing, you could buy used equipment. being on a tight budget and needing electrical upgrades it might be the only way that you can get the equipment that you are wanting. just a thought
there will probably be differing opinions but imo the ssd is a bit louder and has a bit more sq that the type r. this is coming from experience seeing as i have a ssd right now and have heard a ton of type r systems. they are both really good woofers but i think the ssd has a slight edge over the type r.
ok well i do have a 250 amp ho alt right now so all i really need to do is the big 3 and i should be able to run that power just fine... and for the ssd does the bp power and flatwind coils make a difference should i invest in that also or would i be fine without...
the 18" hdc3 is only dual 1 ohm.. so what would i wire it to on the aq 2200? is there a way to wire it to 1ohm... cause i thought you can only do .5 and 2 ohm....
i would get some phoenix gold octanes r Z rated...
or the phoenix gold rsdc wich are more expensive like 198 for the pair http://cgi.ebay.com/2-PHOENIX-GOLD-RSdC124-12-2400-WATT-CAR-SUB-WOOFERS-/2904649 38206?pt=Car_Subwoofers_Enclosures
