i like the sony wx900 with dual 12" subs. I was at a friends house and he had one in a 16x20 room and it slammed. but he said if u use the xtra bass boost it would bottom out at max volume but the bass boost is not needed cuz its so loud anyway. i seen somewhere on the net that was selling one for $460 with free shipping. 1000 watts
 

Unregistered guest
one time i borrowed a yamaha sw315 with 1000 watt amplifier and u can easily feel bass down to 16hz with that sub its just sick.

If it's power you're lookin for go with the Bob Carver at 2700 watts it will make your bowels collapse if ya crank it. IMO

A liitle pricy but well worth it!

I have 2 Bag End Infra-18's on my system (about $1,500 each). Each has a 400W amp and an 18" driver and weighs about 95-lbs or so. They really go real deep. :-)
 

Unregistered guest

Today i was at a local audio store and i saw something i thought was a little weird but kinda cool. I saw a 10" Audiobahn Linear Compression subwoofer(which is a car subwoofer) but it was in a bandpass box with a powered amplifier in the back. I asked a guy about it in the store and he said it was a audiobahn made for home use. It was $599 i dont know how many watts the amplifier put out but if was a plate amplifier. Im guessing 1000 rms. Has anyone seen anything like this?

I had my new kickers blown up in just 2 days.I was running three Rockford amps (two for the subs & one for the deck & doors).Anyway,I took back the kickers & the salesman sold me 2 Rockford Fosgate subwoofers that gave great SQL & SPL bass tones for years.

Kickers don't even compare to the likes of RE, Digital Design, Image dynamics and MTX.

what about the Digital design 9917 sub, that is a beast aswell, DD always kick a$$ at spl comps.

As for the jack hammer, if it costs 6000, I would rather have 5 DD 9915 subs, I think if you put about 8kw of rms power througn each, you could kick out some really high numbers.

but I wouldn't mind having that puppy in the back of my car, not that it would move of course.

I wouldn't bothere with Hifonics, several of their amps have been scoped and they don't produce anywhere near what they say they do.

I'm a Die hard DD fan, I think their subs are awesome, very good quality hand built subs. As for amps, you may aswell get US amps or SPL dynamics, which are pure power, some are even regulated.

I've only got a Digital Designs DD9112 and a rockford fosgate 1501bd, giving it 1645 watts rms at 2 ohms. The box is 2.5 cuft and tuned to 42hz, the result is immense, I can only imagine what a 15" or the 9917 sub would do. I haven't had it measured yet but I think it would be 140 + at least.

dont be very proud of that dino, and the hifoncs amps are GREAT amps for the cash, simple sa that, if u set the dials right they are VERY good amps and they DO produce about 1450 watts rms when i bench tested it. But im hitting 146.4 dbs with my 15 ti and an interfire ib1900c amp, just for your info, its a box thats tuned to 33 hrtz 3.0 cubic feet after displacement and 550 watts rms, thats nothing and im killing with it. DDs are awesome, but i WOULD get a hifonics for people if thye need a good amp

so you're saying you're only giving your sub 550 watts rms and it hits 146.4 db, I'm sorry but that sounds like bull. unless I misread. you're box isn't even tuned for spl and with 550 wrms and with 1 15" in a 3 cuft box seems too small. I 15 needs at least a 4cuft, have a look at all the spl heads, they have boxes in excess of 4cuft for each sub, that goes for 12" subs aswell let alone 15".

sorry I made a mistake, I take what I said above back, I'm completely out of line, there's no way of judging how many db you can get from seeing it written down. I just measured my setup about half an hour ago on a db drag termlab, with a broken DD sub and measured 149.2 db on a five second burp. I was under the impression that my setup would only get up to mid 140's

i played a 1 hz signal through my sub for about a minute, without knowing it, and I thought I burnt the vc's because it was scratching, but I measure both vc's and they're both fine. put it back in the car yeterday and the scratching isn't noticable at high volumes. what do you think it could be, I think it could have got really hot and melted some glue or something and it's scratching inside or there's dirt inside.

haha thank you, i was about to get mad lol cuase it does NOT matter wattages and some subs require different airspaces for different power handlings, i just cant wait to get a new 6 cubic foot box tuned to 45 with 1200 watts rms, im hoping to break 152 lol. but man if i could get a dd id be in heaven lol

if you got a DD 9515 you'd hit 150db easy, I think the next upgrade will be to get a 15". try and get a bit more serious. and in a 6cuft box you can get the 9917 to sing like a bird. it will destroy most subs, but with any DD and RE sub you have to give them a lot of power, especially the RE subs as they are so inefficient

well the old audio control mics which need to be calibrated regularly and can be affect by changes in temperature and air pressure to name just a few things, but the most accurate way to measure SPL is with the new db drag termlab. The old mic can add up to as much as 8 db, which is really in accurate.

Anyway 4.7 cuft, for two 10"s is quite big, but fom a sealed, thats suprising. IF he ported that to the right frequency he could hit even higher.

Once you get over 12in subs they start to roll and sound kind of shitty. I have got 4, 10in 800watt subs there ran through two 1500watt amps. then I have 6, 6x9's running through another 1500watt amp. They sound great!!

are you talking about max or rms values here? and you're not being specific with brands and enclosure and car.

You're completely wrong in saying that they sound $hitty above 12" subs. have you ever heard an RE or an ID or a DD sub. These subs can take a hell of a pounding and are probably more responsive than any other 10" $hitty brand sub.

Also if you were so into SQ then you would certainly not be running 6 x 9s. Instead you would have a nice pair of Components. Because we all know that 6x9's are a cheap cheap cheap replacement for the low end fill.

If I were you I would invest in a decent pair of comps up front and amp those instead of wasting it on the 6x9s, you would get a better stage of sound. If you do like rear fill than power the 6x9s with your h/u.

I'm sorry but I gotta agree. are you retarded or something? Learn to talk and stop trying to act all ghetto. you probably don't even know what the parts of the sub do let alone make your own. If it's so good why don't you make them and sell them. 50" sub my a$$. for a start it would sound $hit cause it wouldn't move fast enough. The bigger doesn't mean better, retard. And why lie? as if a person like you bought one, you wouldn't know what to do with it.

you can blow out windows quite easily, especially in weak cars and it will most likely be the front or back, not the side ones. they usually blow out from the edge, but the rarely ever crack or break. So blowing out, but blowing out all the windows inda house as said before is stupid to say.

Please note you need to be very careful with really deep bass. As I understand it (and I'm not a medical man), the rear end's sphincter muscle reacts to a 7hz signal. i.e. if your sub does 7hz loud, you're liable to literally dump in your pants there and then!

I note monkey man jack asked for 'reasonably priced'. This does depend what he means by reasonable of course. I suggest he look at the M&K range. They have a whole range of sealed unit subs (meaning they have little - if any - cabinet noise) that go very deep indeed. Look on http://www.mksound.com. I've been playing with their entry level KX-10 and it impresses. I've also played with their MX700 and it's lovely. Their top of the range 350 THX thing is awesome...

All M&K's subs go down to 20hz flat except the KX-10. That means you'll get a full range (20hz - 20khz) with one of these subs - even the KX-10 has useable output at 20hz which is remarkable for such a small sub.

I also like the REL subs, particularly their ST range such as the Stampede and Strata 5. Again, sealed units, very flexible dynamic and fast.

Regards,
Frank.

At 7Hz where are bodies resonate at within the infersonic frequency range and tests have been done on humans with nasty results the infersonic range if it where matched by playing around with infersonic ranges and using a sound generator and if played at very high SPL levels can result in internal damage ekk!

The idea of doing this is sick

dan, that sub was actually made by that ghuy because someone bet him he could not make a sub that was 5 feet in diameter, and yes that sub is/was real and was used once in a car audio shop, namely the man who made it, the guy in the picture designed and built it, it ran once worked well, and imploded truck....this is what i have heard

For those of you looking for real, good, afforable HOME AUDIO subwoofers, check out:
http://www.svsubwoofers.com/
They have comparisons to the other major players (Sunfire, Velodyne, etc) and always, always come out ahead, esp. when cost is factored in.

I am a deffinate newbie and I don't know anything about speakers really except they look good, sound great, and make my head hurt XD.
But I have a few questions:
1. What do the magnets in speakers do?
2. Doesn't more travel mean the speaker is going to 'vibrate' more slowly or am I wrong?
3.I watched 'P*mp My Ride' today and they put the MTX JackHammer in this guys buick and omg that sub amazed me. Its like 2 feet long! I've seen someone post the it is 6k, Can you back thay up at all? I am not trying to contest you but I'm just curious.
4. Does the position of the sub (facing in cabin of car or in trunk) effect the bass?
5. It keeps getting harder and harder for me to find competition CDs for Db drag racing and audio comps but I have the CD 'DB JAMS volume 6' and I want to know if there is a volume 7 or higher. Please help.
If you read this and want to help me please email me at raijingt@tmail.com
Even if you can only answer 1 of my questions that's a help. Thanks,
Corey
p.s. (I can't type the real name of the tv show that's on mtv. It says I can't use the word and have to remove it lol. Lame....

does size really matter to you guys that much?

one JackHammer will move more air than three 13w7's. But everyone has the W7's. It moves as much air as six kicker 15" L7's...but again, everyone has those too....everyone that hates the Jackhammer is just jealous. Either because they can't build it or because they can't afford to buy it.

I have 2 15" planet audio Z15s, 2 Matts dh300 amps both slaved through a directed 1500d. one amp per sub. the box is built by me and i dont know how to measure ports or set hz levels on boxes yet but im learning, but the box fits tight in the back with no room to spare. i have 2 optima yellow top batts and 2 power caps and a 220amp alternator. all in my mitsubishi eclipse and on the termlab meter at dbdrag i hit a 157.7 db. i think if i could learn boxes better i could get a sponser but 2 first place trophies dbdrag and clash of the titans wont get it. any help on getting sponsered would greatly be appreciated ty all.

as far as the jackhammer put in that guys car on p!mp my ride, they were saying it was the first car with one in it. And no $hit, it was freakin huge, added an extra 320 pounds, and looked like a freakin beast to install. Besides that it must destroy your ears.....but DAMN i bet it's loud as hell. So anyone who says they have one is lying, unless you're the guy that got his car p!mped, in which case you are one lucky son of a b!tch

yeah i saw that episode tonight thats one lucky dude but the jack hammer in his car was only producing a little over 100db that sucks for a $6000 sub. and as far as blowing others windows out of their cars ive been to car shows where ive seen 170+ spl and never seen windows in other people's cars blown out so that guy is just full of it in more ways than one!
 

Q
Unregistered guest
Yeah, 100db on a wack spl meter that couldn't read over that. That sub will get alot louder than that. Are you nuts?!

320 lbs. is alot for a sub, but not that much for a car to handle. Think of it as havin' two passengers(or your mom)in the back seat.

yhateme, first off I do have a 12W7 and the only one in my town to have it, so i don't know what you are talking about when you say "but everyone has the W7". mainly what i'm trying to say is that only us hustlers have a grand lying around to put into a sub.

actually the jlw7 sucks the mass produced them to get the on the market and were slower doing studies with the much better and longer lasting jlw6. so i wouldnt waste my money on a jlw7 id get the one that will do the same thing and actually hold up under pressure the jlw6.

gijessie, how can you say it sucks have you had one or is this hear say. And i've had my W7 for about 2 years now and sounds just the same as it did after i broke it in. So having it last is not the problem. Also it is much louder than two of the w6's which i have heard with very simular set ups. When it comes down to it you talk bad about the W7 because you don't have the money to get one youself.

Unregistered guest
i have my own sound studio and i know for a fact that the w7 is no better than the w6 and if you could come down here i would prove it to you. the JLw7 is overated point blank. and hearing subs in a similar set doesnt mean anything i can take two identical cars same boxes and subs and they both would sound different.
if you dont know what your talking about dont even post plus if your dad wants to buy you sh**ty equipment so be it.
