Silver Member Username: PitbullguyChicago, Illinois USA Post Number: 181 Registered: Oct-06 | need a sub or subs and an amp for around $500 that budget is just for sub(s) and amp...wiring/box not included in that budget. love the kicker amps like the zx750 or zx1000 ($240shipped ; $300shipped on EBAY) I've thought so far about 2 12" assassins ; 1 15" Fi SSD ; 1 15" Fi Q... Totally open to suggestions and once again i want good versatile SQ that can still get loud. i can be persuaded to stretch that budget somewhat but not a whole lot...chauncey don't you dare tell me to save more  i could spend 3 G's on a system if i really wanted to...i dont. by the way this system is gonna be in a crown vic with a sealed trunk. |

Silver Member Username: PitbullguyChicago, Illinois USA Post Number: 182 Registered: Oct-06 | would 1 15" Q get louder than 2 12" assassins despite 9" less cone area??? how would the sq compare q vs. assassins??? how much rms should you give the Q? i know it's spec'd at 1000 but should i really feed it more? |

Silver Member Username: Pike11012w6v2s, Indianapolis... Post Number: 313 Registered: Oct-05 | The ed nine.1 is 315 after discount and the 15 q is 279 I think. So, $594 total...that would be a very nice set up! The ed nine.1 puts out 1200 watts rms, which would be perfect for the q. |

Silver Member Username: PitbullguyChicago, Illinois USA Post Number: 184 Registered: Oct-06 | what about the assassins... does the sq not even compare to what i could do with a single sub setup like a Q?? just curious cuz no one commented on that option. |

Silver Member Username: PitbullguyChicago, Illinois USA Post Number: 185 Registered: Oct-06 | yeah i'm leaning towards the AA assassins cause i have a dual 12" box already that is like perfect for them... just wanted to see if people would argue convincingly enough for a better SQL setup in the same price range...but ppl seem to have nothing but good things to say about the assassins so i think i'm headed that way |
