I was doing some reading and came across SI Mag, where can you buy those subs at? and how do those compare to the Fi Q15 for SQ/SQL if it were to be ran of a Kicker ZX1000.1?

If you got the money the Mag it is. The Q is so closely matched and tons cheaper though. Kevin and Scott are our heroes.

oh that MAG was more expensive than I thought, I read an old thread on here and some people did a group buy for $350, they got such a good deal...

I checked out RD audio like you said... anyone have and feedback on the RD Sonance 15"? It said it was good for low HZ (rap/hip hop) which is basically 90% of the music I listen to.

I agree, check out the Icon. It is a SQ sub. It looks like a very quality sub and is around the same price as the Q.

I think I would rather get the Q than the Icon, Q just seems like it is built better and has the better rep.

I'm guessing the Q is probably my best sub after reading and researching the different types.

I just wanted to make sure I get sometime I will enjoy for a long time and hopefully not have to upgrade anytime soon.

The Q is built better than the Icon? I wouldn't go as far and say that. Not saying the Q is a bad driver but I am sure the Icon is built very well, and about the rep, its kinda hard to have a good rep when the Icon has been released for what maybe 2 weeks at most now. But its up to you but I wouldn't put down a driver that you really don't know anything about.

I just haven't heard anything about the Icon (because it is new). I'm sure it is a quality sub and I didn't mean built but just looks better...

I was just reading more on the SSA forum, and I'm thinking about waiting for people to review the Icon ... it's more interesting than I thought.

The Icon was designed as a SQ sub but from what Ive read it can get pretty loud if its asked to.

What amp do you think would go good with the Icon since it has a Dual 2ohm coil, I don't think the Kicker zx1000.1 would work

The Sundown SAE-1000D would work good with that sub.

US Amps XT-2000D, a little cheaper, how reliable are those? Do they put out what they claim, or are they underrated or overrated?

would two JL w6 12" have better SQL than the Q15?

(I might be able to pick up two for $400 from a friend)

YES! If I had the cash for 2 W6's I would buy them right this instant! W6 FTW! Since the cone area of both of these is bigger than the 1 Q, It will have more SPL as well as maintain the SQ that the W6 is famous for.

I'd take the W6's over the Q's for SQ, but I'm going to go against the grain and suggest the ED 13Av.2.

Is the ED 13av.2 good for SQL? Haven't really read about that sub.

What about compared to the Q?

The 13Av.2 is ED's new flagship sub. It's supposed to have amazing SQ and get decently loud too. I've never heard one, but their other subs are great for SQ.

How would a ID Max sound w/ 500wrms going to it? SQ and SPL wise

eDuh ftl. don't give that a SShat any money.


the icon and the new mag share some dna (i'll get in trouble for that.) and i've got a 12 icon on it's way. i think it'll be an outstanding performer, especially for it's price.


the q has proven itself. wouldn't be a bad choice at all. it and the icon would be a great matchup.

teh pair of w6s. man, the added cone area would just kill. teh w6 is far and away jl's best sub, and the only one i would ever buy. it's right there with the icon and q. if not a little better. and if you can get a pair for $400, da mn it man, lol.

id max, nice sub as well. seem a little box picky IME. but great performers. i'd do these before w7s, but i'd do w6s before teh max.



wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
