Whats your opinion on Audiobahn?
|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 2 Registered: Apr-05 | I am considering getting 2 Audiobahn AWC12T 12" performer subs and 1 Audiobahn A8002T amp. I've heard this combo works well together, but what do you guys think? |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 1258 Registered: Jun-04 | dont do audiobahn im warning you and ive personally messed with the 8002t its power is over rated by like 200 watts i think...800 claimed if i remember right and had audiobahns best sub not the best build or sq and needs alot of power ....ive tons of car audio over the years and this is one that really disappoints me for the money esp. |

|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 5 Registered: Apr-05 | I'd like to see what I can do with around $350. Its about all I can spend right now |

Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 163 Registered: Mar-05 | get an atlas 15" sub and a jbl bp600.1 amp off ebay (2 being sold now, rated at 600watts rms at 2ohms and 1 ohm but produces closer to 800 and higher if your charging system will allow it). Atlas is sold at www.ascendantaudio.com and is a bad @ss sub for the money. dont just listen to me though these guys on this forum will help u out as much as they can so wait for more posts |

Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 1937 Registered: Dec-04 | atlas would be a nice setup |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 167 Registered: Mar-05 | if u could get about another 150 u could buy the avalanche 15 which is an awesome sub |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 168 Registered: Mar-05 | or or or u could look for 2 older alpine type r 12s (might still be some on ebay) around 200 total for them or u could buy 2 new type rs for 298. the old ones are 1221 or 1241s and the new ones are 1222 and 1242s. nice sq subs and decent spl |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 169 Registered: Mar-05 | hell if i could get mine back from my sister who "lost them" i would sell them with a box and jbl bp600.1 amp for 300 |
|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 7 Registered: Apr-05 | Nice. I would prefer a couple of 12s rather than a 15, but sound quality is the main thing I'm after. I'm hoping to find a job over the summer and that would bring in some more available money. |

Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 172 Registered: Mar-05 | atlas has the ability to adjust the qts so u can change it for more spl or better sq. you can actually put another terminal in your box and run a pair of wires to your dash and install a potentiometer so u can adjust it on the fly. its off the heezy |
|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 8 Registered: Apr-05 | Lol thats pretty sweet. I'd probably adjust it for more sq. How much does the potentiometer cost? |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 174 Registered: Mar-05 | probably about 5 bucks not sure..i think someone on this forum has done it like that not sure who though..maybe they will chime in here sometime tonight |
|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 9 Registered: Apr-05 | Low prices- thats what i like to see! Does Atlas make good 12" subs as well? And if so, do you know about how much those would cost? |
|
Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 1940 Registered: Dec-04 | buy my stuff lol |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 175 Registered: Mar-05 | atlas doesnt sell the potentiometer u will have to talk to chad (the owner) about what u need if u decide to order them. atlas 15 is 160 plus shipping it also comes in a 12 http://www.ascendantaudio.com/Atlas%2015.htm |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 176 Registered: Mar-05 | here is the amp i was talking about http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18797%26item%3D5766396814 %26 a very nice amp he is actually selling 2 of them but i wouldnt pay over 175 for it u can get the 1200 for about 210 on ebay. if u get it cheap enough u might be able to get 2 atlas 12s but the 12 is 145 and the 15 160 so for 15 more u get a much larger surface area |
|
New member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 10 Registered: Apr-05 | Cool thanks Alpine. Subfanatic, what is your stuff and how much are you selling it for? |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 177 Registered: Mar-05 | of course the rms on the atlas is only 300 they are a very effecient sub if u do decide on that u might wanna get a smaller amp or get a larger one and turn the gains down a little till u can buy another sub if u want |

Bronze Member Username: NewtoaudioPost Number: 11 Registered: Apr-05 | Hey I've heard good things about Resonant Engineering and went to their website and looked at some of their products, what do you think about the re line of subs? and also, do you know the prices on them, because I couldn't find them on the website? |
|
Silver Member Username: AlpineuserPost Number: 178 Registered: Mar-05 | i have heard alot of nice things about them i know the x.x.x and the mt are nice subs but not sure about the others |
|
Gold Member Username: JmloughreyFarmington, CT Post Number: 1164 Registered: Jul-04 | seeing as a single xx.x is more then his whole budget...the RE line of subs is a great sub, chances are it'll out perform most of the competition mid-high quality range of sub... |

Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 1942 Registered: Dec-04 | jon check out my pro, click on my name and everything is for sale, or go to the thread, add another one to the list to see prices, i started that thread earlier |
