Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2650 Registered: Aug-06 | i got a friend and were going to pick up a single or a pair of 8s probably and i dont really know where to look. i mean, 8s? i searched and found a thread by chad and his friend was doing the same thing. this dude listens to rock and stuff like that too, sooo... the image dynamics look nice and their 100 apiece but do they get loud at all? how much are the audioque SD2 8s? |

I haven't heard the 8's but I have heard the 10's and I was surprised how loud they got. Why 8's man...get something BIGGER...whats it going in? You friend wants SQ but not loud? Well he can still get SQ because no matter what he gets it wont be loud after he gets use to it...he will just want more and more |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2651 Registered: Aug-06 | the sound quality probably wont be an issue because all the 8s i have seen so far are decent sounding subs, except the audioque, dont know about that one, if it sounds anything like the dee deez then no... we would have bought the rl-is from you... |

Silver Member Username: Alpine97Paramount, California USA Post Number: 241 Registered: Jan-08 | Yeah I would do that, not a bad price or sub. Plus it has a 5yr warranty.. |
|
Gold Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 2035 Registered: Dec-06 | I advertised them a couple times. Oh well. |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2653 Registered: Aug-06 | yeah, your right, im human and i made an ignorant comment. it happens. if it sounds anything like the 6 i have owned/heard then no. better? dont hate me cause i like good sounding subwoofers... |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2656 Registered: Aug-06 | "AQ SD208-S4 $89 each" thanks, thats not a bad price. im liking the price on those ED 10s also... |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5528 Registered: Jul-06 | If your DD subs sounded bad you did something wrong....... yes they sacrifice low end for a gain in SPL. They are SPL based subs that are also ok for daily. But they don't sound BAD........ |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2662 Registered: Aug-06 | and they dont sound GOOD... dude, ive always been impressed with their output. i even plan on building a burp car again this year and im going to prolly use DD or audioque. see its suggestions like these that eff up the car audio world, especially on internet forums. im looking for some good sounding 8" subs for a dude that just wants to hear some rock and you suggest something i already said im not intrested in. and i never said anything about the lows, i was actually impressed there as well for a sub with its piticular specs. rap is fine with them but anything very musical and they sound nasty. people i personally know that have listened with me agreed at the same times. were going with a 10" anyways... |

|
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2663 Registered: Aug-06 | and i was really just joking when i said that stuff about them "sounding anything like the dee deez"... i know they dont all sound the same and i know that some of the piticular models do sound pretty decent but from what all i have heard, they are just not the path we are looking for. and i think the SD2 would sound as good or better than any of the DD subs i have heard though. |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2664 Registered: Aug-06 | whoah, those subs are crazy...  |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5539 Registered: Jul-06 | I didn't suggest you use them, I just challenged your saying they don't sound good. I have a 9500 series, the one with probably the least SQ of all their models, and it sounds decent on music. And has amazing output for 1 sub. Not an SQ system by far but the average person wouldn't notice a difference from other subs. It does lack low end, but that is a characteristic of the 9500s. |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2665 Registered: Aug-06 | i know, i know. i thought they sounded decent, too... thats exactly what i said above. decent. were wanting GOOD... are you this biased? what are we even talking about? |

Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2668 Registered: Aug-06 | yeah, i bet the new assassins are pretty nice, i liked the older ones. i think were going with rl-i8s though... |
|
Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 562 Registered: Nov-06 | The RL-i8's won't be back for a while. |
|
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2670 Registered: Aug-06 | errr. well, we will prolly do 10s then... |
|
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Fi Post Number: 2671 Registered: Aug-06 | not rl-i, just some kinda 10s... |
|
Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 563 Registered: Nov-06 | The RL-i 10's are nice. |
