Silver Member Username: ClouduzPost Number: 121 Registered: Jun-06 | I'm currently looking to replace my 2 12's (sony) I was thinking about getting a type R but then I started hearing about just as good if not better brands. I'm looking for a sql sub. Some brands i heard were good...Assassin, Type R, FI, DD, HD3. Can I get some suggestions. Um...budget is like $450 for both subs if possibly. |

Silver Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 702 Registered: Dec-06 | Snarl he said he could get TWO for $125 + ship. Here is the page he is talking about: http://cgi.ebay.com/Resonant-engineering-PAIR-12-subs-NEW-IN-BOX-RE-Audio_W0QQit emZ220094343450QQcategoryZ18803QQcmdZViewItem This guy seems fishy to me -- alarmingly low price, only a 7 feedback and no returns (as we do not know who will be installing them). Ehhhh... |
