New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 1 Registered: Feb-08 | What up fellas? Ok, I currently have a Kicker KX1200.1, 1477 on the Birth Sheet, and I'm trying to find a good 1 sub setup to match it with. I've been looking at the Fi Q 15" and the SI Mag, but I heard that they weren't making 15's anymore. I was also looking at a Kicker CVX, actually I was about to go buy it but I decided to see if I can some feedback here first! Basically, I'm looking for SQL...I want to be heard and FELT before I pull up on the scene, but I also want to enjoy my sh*t when I'm driving...lemme know what's good! |

Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 63 Registered: Sep-07 | What kind of box are you planning on putting it in? Budget? |
|
New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 3 Registered: Feb-08 | Um, I just left a ported setup, kinda wanna try sealed, not unless I'm convinced to stay with ported! The budget isn't bad for me...probably up to $400. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 64 Registered: Sep-07 | Well since you want to be "heard and FELT" i would suggest you stick with a ported box. the q is a good option. dont know much about SI. also i have heard lots of good things about the audioque HDC3. http://www.audioque.com/aq/HDCSeries.htm way under your budget too. but dont let that discourage you though |

New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 4 Registered: Feb-08 | Isn't the HDC purely SPL? I've personally heard the SD2.5s and was impressed. |

|
New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 5 Registered: Feb-08 | Hows the SQ on the mag? |

Gold Member Username: Snarl2004Digital Design 9515, Massive Audi... Post Number: 2177 Registered: Dec-06 | the HDC3 series is SQL just like the SD2.5's |
|
New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 7 Registered: Feb-08 | Well, I've narrowed it down to either the 15" Mag or 15" CVX. Any more suggestions? |
|
Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 1209 Registered: Aug-06 | sx |
|
Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 68 Registered: Sep-07 | Yanks seems to like his MAG a lot lot lot lot lot... i wouldnt doubt that it sounds much better than the cvx either my recommendation is the MAG. just by what people have to say about it |
|
New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 9 Registered: Feb-08 | yea, I know...GOD I want one so bad! lol What's an SX @ Mark? Anyway, with my AMP and HU, what ONE sub setup would you guys match it up with? |
|
Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 1211 Registered: Aug-06 | sx is resonant engineering. not sure what you mean by your question tho. i got a pair of bnib 12's for 445 shipped. the sx is rated for 1000 rms but supposedly will take up to 1500 mine will be on 1100 each once i get my alt. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 69 Registered: Sep-07 | Ima guess Mark is talking about the RE SX. also a good sub. But definitely if you can find a MAG go for it. otherwise you should consider the HDC3, or the SX Also the new AA Havoc would be something to consider and is still under budget. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/shop/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=167 thats where you can find one |

|
New member Username: DynamikPost Number: 10 Registered: Feb-08 | Ok I was asking, since I already have a KX1200.1, 1477 on birth sheet, and the Premier HU what sub would be nicely matched with those two since I only want ONE sub... and I was thinking a 15"... |
|
Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 70 Registered: Sep-07 | I think pretty much any of the subs that have been listed are good. But I'll try and put them in running order. Correct me if i am wrong, just my guess. 1. MAG 2. AA Havoc 3. FI Q 4. Audioque HDC3 5. RE SX 6. Kicker CVX maybe Havoc and Q are interchangeable |
|
Bronze Member Username: Bumpin_buickAppleton, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 92 Registered: Apr-07 | check out DCsoundlab.com if you have any questions on our subs or pricing let me know. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Alex_smithPost Number: 72 Registered: Sep-07 | Yeah i forgot about DC Have also heard many good things about them and that level 5 looks like a mammoth... |
|
Bronze Member Username: DynamikPost Number: 11 Registered: Feb-08 | Nice... list @ Alex. I want the Mag, thinking about the Havoc, considering the Q, not really interested in the HDC3, will look into the SX, and also considering the CVX! And, Matt K...got any vids of the Level 4 DC subs? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Bumpin_buickAppleton, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 93 Registered: Apr-07 | even just a lvl 3 or a lvl 4 would be sick and has good sql, i can get ya guys some sick prices if anyone needs just let me know |
|
Bronze Member Username: Bumpin_buickAppleton, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 94 Registered: Apr-07 | Heres a few I found on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2oxBd0qbQ0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lNghtro2Dc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATDNOFJMfF8 I will have vids from my build once we get the CF dust caps in and I can get the subs in. |
|
Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 1212 Registered: Aug-06 | as of now my sx's have very good sq imo. but the output is lacking. but i have the gain all the way down and they are in a 3.8 cube box. my new box will be 5-5.2 cubes for the pair of 12's i will let you know how they sound once im done with my new box |
|
Bronze Member Username: DynamikPost Number: 12 Registered: Feb-08 | Do you have any messengers @ Matt? |
