Must be crazy or I'm getting old. I thought I would eventually want to get my setup to 3 13w6v2's, but I got one in ATM and I'm already thinking it's enough for me.
I keep reading about you guys pumping out like 2k watts and it makes me think my ears will bleed. I only got like 600 going to 1 sub. . .
my favorite part is when they throw that abbreviation "SQ" in the mix with multiple 15 or 18" subs and thousands of watts....how your front stage?????? lmao
alot of power isn't necessary if you want just clean bass for daily. only reason i got 5000wrms is cause i want to compete. once i compete a couple times, i am going for a single clean sub with 500wrms on it.
DOKTAH....long time no see. i pm'd you a couple times on aim and no answer. its cool. i guess you have your reasons.
to get back on topic, yeah 500-1000 is perfect for daily. for clean sq i'd say 500-600 is more than enough. of course you need a clean sounding sub too.
ive heard 4KRMS sound CLEAN, REAL FREAKIN CLEAN! it played a large range of freq very responsive...
if u said that was not SQ something is wrong with u, and it wanged!
I agree with Rovin 1krms is enuff for most people, espically when u put cone area into the equation...
I did a memphis belle install which is basically a 1000d inside, on 4 SONY... YES SONY 12s....
and I must say it WANNGED Loud and DEEP... shook the store and the other stores besides us... Totaly unbelivable on 1krms!!
my problem is when I want it to get louder, I expect it to get louder... lol 5Krms or better!! I know some people think its too much, but once u get there, its no turnin back! 20k + rms next year!
i wasn't talking about sq that wanged B. i was simply saying for a pure sq setup (which will have equal output of the front stage) you don't need that much power.
yes u can get freakishly loud & still very clean @ 1000s of watts i fully agree since a recent carshow i went there were 2 vans with 16 10s DDs & another with 6 15s DD each with easily 6000wrms & more sounding clean & super loud
but realistically u cant handle that daily 500-1000 is more civilised 4 daily driver - depends on type of music u listen too as well , if u like easy listening as little as 200/300wrms will do u just fine ......
true... 250rms is remarkable.. it just comes down to the install.. Chad yes the older we get the less is required to satisfy us... PURE sq can be done with 500rms... now with more power, u just need a more powerfull front stage to keep up... but by that point it is just unbareable to most...
I do want alittle crisper highs though. (I know there are a thousand sets of speakers that sound better) I currently have Alpine type Rs throughout. Should I just get some tweets because the midbass is awesome, I just need some more trebble.
if you have more than 1000wRMS on a sub(s), you do NOT have a SQ system. lol end of the road there, b/c there is not WAY your music is balanced. or sounding good for that matter, b/c after so much bass, you need mids and highs that scream...and screaming mids and highs isn't SQ either.
