hey guys... I'm lookin to start myself on the way to a really good SQ bass setup, just for background I drive a 89Teg RS 2dr hatch.... and I've been lookin at JLw6's... 7's are a 'lil outside my price range and I was wonderin if they have good SQ, or are more of a SPL sub.... It'd also be great if someone could offer alternatives to good SQ subs that aren't rediculously expensive
thanx

 

What kind of budget do you have?

Do you have an amp to power it? If so state brand make/model... if not, how much are you looking to spend on this as well?

 

I like the JLw3s for SQ

 

If you are looking for cheap, get the 12" infinity reference, takes underrated at 300 RMS. I ran 450 to it and it didn't blink. They run $50 on Ebay. probably $80 in stores if you find a sale. If you really like bass get two of them. I think that I would trade my two $800 (each) 15's for four of those infinities if I had the trunk space.

 

Try the elemental designs a series. They are in the price range of the w6's, around 300.

 

I run two audiobahn 10"s, sound great. I've heard you don't want to power their speakers to max rms though...

i was quoted "only" 369 for the 12" xxx.
various people have said they rival the W7
and for the price omg..fuccadubbayewseven.
i can't wait to try resonant engineering's sub.

who used to own a JL audio 10W7 and 500/1 in a ported enclosure with
GREAT SQ *thanks to the pro enclosure made by vteg* and a whole lotta SPL.

no, I don't have an amp so I guess suggestions on those would be great as well.... my budget... for amp and sub(s) would be like....I dunno.... 2-3grand?? I don't really wanna spend more than 3, but who knows...... thanx guys

 

ok these subs are little off the range of the w6 but right with the w3's

adireaudio.com

check out the shiva. dont look like much but get very very very loud and hit lower than any sub out there....

or if u got the money look at the brahma

 

damn, if you got 3 g's. Get a pair of 12xxx's and 3000 watts somewhere

not on 89 astro LOL
where is he gonna fit those bad boys...well, 3g's...almost anything is possible.

but hey for 3 g's...no offense but, with a lil more..i would go after another car...

 

I think 2 cubes ported is sufficient. That is 4 cubes total. You have not seen the 15xxx box I built yet

 

hrm..something tells me that u wanna give me a ride in that WRX of yours...hrm..
