Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 36 Registered: Feb-06 | i want to get a sub that no one really has so my final two are either a 12 inch RE SE or a Crystal Comp 12. the crystal comp will be paired with probially a 500/1 since its svc 4 ohm. the SE will be paired with the kicker 600.1, orion 1200D (this way i can wirre it at 1 ohm 1200 rms if i want to add another sub later on), or jl 500/1. both will be in a sealed box which will have better SQ? and SQL? also any other suggestions on amps |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6514 Registered: Jul-05 | the cmp and cmpx are top 10 subs, anyone who has heard them would agree |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 37 Registered: Feb-06 | okay i will probially go with the crystal cmp is there another amp better than the 500/` that will put out 500-600 watts rms @ 4 ohm for around the same price. also i heard the 500/1 is a little underrated and puts out 550-600 is this true? |

Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 38 Registered: Feb-06 | i heard two 15 inch crystal subs (dont know which modle either it was aobut 5 years ago) with a 2000 watt us amps, 1000 watts going to each sub and they sounded amazing |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6515 Registered: Jul-05 | budget They could have been the cmp's they can take 1000 rms all day, no problem |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 39 Registered: Feb-06 | no because they were being underpowerd with 1000 watt rms... did they make comps and comp xs 5-6 years ago? |

Silver Member Username: Matt12490Benicia, California USA Post Number: 720 Registered: May-05 | I would also recommend the Crystal. While I'm here, how would the SQ compare between the Crystal CMP and the Sound Spliter Rl-p?? Both in sealed boxes to specs?? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 40 Registered: Feb-06 | my budget is about $360 for an amp... and i can get a 500/1 on ebay for about that brand new. is there another amp that will put out 500-600 watts rms @ 4 ohm for about $350. i want an amp that produces very good SQ. |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6517 Registered: Jul-05 | I would give the rl-p's in the low end, but overall the cmp, dont get me wrong the rl-p is great 2 |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6518 Registered: Jul-05 | Have u thought about a re 12.1 if u wire it for 4ohms it would send out around 600-700 rms, and u also have the option for an upgrade later |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 41 Registered: Feb-06 | yes but when i get another sub i also want to buy a set of components and amp for them. that amp will be perfect because if its 600 @ 4 it will be 1200 @ 2 so i will be able to keep this amp when i get another sub. does this amp put out good SQ? and how much does it cost? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 42 Registered: Feb-06 | and the RE 12.1 says 400 watts @ 4 ohms?? |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6520 Registered: Jul-05 | its underrated so it puts out around 600-700rms @ 4 ohms,, and yes its a great amp, and it cost 390...I would suggest u looking at bigger amps so u could find an amp to suit ur needs, and later an upgrade |

Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 43 Registered: Feb-06 | i will look further into that amp... untill i get that i will be powering it with a JL e1800d which puts out 480 @ 4 ohms. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 45 Registered: Feb-06 | since i already have the e1800D would this be a good choice since it puts out 480 watts rms. is this too little for a sub that is rated at 600 watts rms?? |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6525 Registered: Jul-05 | it will do fine since the crystal is a very efficent sub, but always look into upgrading |
|
Bronze Member Username: Blk02ssPost Number: 46 Registered: Feb-06 | yes i am talking about untill i save up money for another amp, sub, components, and amp. |
