hey, new guy here:
i need to round out my 1/2 finished system w/ subs and a box... i was hoping the members of this forum could help me choose the right sub. i have an acura rsx couple/hatchback and i'm all about SQ. i listen to everything- a lot of studio recorded bands w/ live instruments and i also like to bang that hip-hop... so i'm looking for a versatile sub.
i want the best sub i can get my hands on, but i'm not into blowing more than 700 for a pair. so at this stage, i'm stuck between a single 12"idmax d-2 or 2 x JL 10w6v2's. i know most of you guys aren't so hot on the JL's these days, but i can get the pair at $460 out-the-door, so the price is kind of attractive. the amp i'm planning to use is a new orion xtr 1400 that's been sitting around for years in a closet. it's a 2-channel, 4 ohm amp that runs 1400 watts bridged or 350x2 RMS.
oh, fyi, the rest of my setup is a set of MB Quart QSD components, the midbass add-on's, run by an old school PPI powerclass 4 ch amp.
so please throw out some suggestions of SQ subs you have personal experience with. thanks in advance
