Bronze Member Username: DevaCroatia Post Number: 12 Registered: Aug-04 | I'm starting new system, going for 1 12in. in ported box. I'm into SPL bit more than SQ ( like 70% for SPL and 30 for SQ). The subs I'm choosing are : alpine type r, adire shiva, kicker cvr, memphis power refrence, infinity perfect, mtx thunder 7500. Any advice appriciated. |

Shivas have been recommended to me many times, so that's what i went with. i hear the perfects are ok, and mtx subs sound like crap to me. ive had people recommend me the shiva over the type r many times, and i liked the way the type r sounded. if you want to upgrade your amp, you always could with the shiva. another sub that's been recommended to me is the cerwin vega v-max. keep in mind, i havent heard these subs yet, but these are recommended by many people on car audio boards. here's a link to a thread where i talked about this. https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/92704.html |
