Bronze Member Username: David311Post Number: 17 Registered: Oct-05 | Would a kx2500.1 be a good amp to run to a pair of TI's? I heard they only perform well in sealed enclosures. |
|
Silver Member Username: Kirbdog22New Bern, North Carolina USA Post Number: 122 Registered: Nov-05 | well u know that depends on what you like sound qualtiy= go with sealed loudness(spl)= go ported but as far as how they perform in certain boxes is going to be different it is also going to sound different |

Silver Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 227 Registered: Jun-05 | this is the big 3 i dont think you necasarily need to do it but it is a good idea |

Silver Member Username: VinnyqhPortland, OR Post Number: 113 Registered: Nov-05 | I would personally go with the diamond d9's, i had one in a ported box in my car (small compact car) and it hit hard enough for me, AND it sounded really good. I have heard them in sealed boxes and jeez, no comparison to those things. The eclipse's are nice, but the SQ that the diamonds give, nothing at all compares in my opinion. |
