Ok ive had my current sub and sub amp for nearly 2 years and ive decided its time for something new. Im looking for something that has alot of SPL with a good mix of SQ mixed in, I mostly listen to rap and I know that SQ isnt the best thing to worry about with it but still I want to be able to have it when I need it.

Ok heres the deal, im wanting something cheap, I mean bare mininum cheap. Ive already got the sub amp figured out and im gonna more than likely go with a Tsunami GXA1000D off of ebay for 140. Ok thats got the amp part taken care of, now comes the real shocker, im looking for a sub that will knock my socks off but it cant be over 150 dollars if I plan on gettin a pair of them or over 200 if its going to be a great single sub setup. Im looking for 12's preferably because im gonna have to eventually make a box to fit into the trunk hole of a 95 camaro before too long. Im more than likely going to run sealed but I may do ported if I can squeeze the space, and I can most likely go ported of its a single sub setup.

So far I was looking at a some Adire Audio shivas, I could only for the time being afford one of them but in later on I could get a second one. I dont know what kind of box these things like but im sure I could find out later on.

The amp im getting is supposed to do 500 @ 4 ohms, 750@ 2 ohms, and 1000@ 1 ohm. Im not really sure on the exact specs of this amp because I havent taken the time to look it up and I dont know because all the ebay add says is 1000 @ 1 ohm, but ive heard the other figures on here if im not too mistaken.

So C'mon guys I know you can help me figure something out, since ive recently gotten a dinky little job working on automatic transmissions and im making 50 bux a week tightening and loosening nuts and bolts, that along with 200 from my dad every month, that gives me about 300 a month to play with if I really stretch it.

 
Lol ya I could go with 4's but I dont really want 8's. I would really like a good single 12 or a pair of 12's just depends on what would be better. And plus ive just expanded my payment options my setting up a paypal account. Now if I could only find my dam* checkbook then I could verify it. Argh lol //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif .

 
Hmm guess no one is going to help me. Fine I know when im not wanted. Ill just leave and let you nice people thrive in your own little world where im not invited. Its ok I can take a hint //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/bawling.gif.6287aa5d1d447c8af063fc9466e822ef.gif .

get a RE 12sx...port it and tune it low...like 28hz. They aren't up to SQ quality like the XXX or so...BUT it'll sound great with 1000watts in a ported box tuned that low. Peace

Alright thanx. Does anyone have a price for these SX's? I cant go to their website and look at anything because it doesnt work to well with a 26.4 dial-up connection.

 
I have not heard Ultimate's subs but I had a set of their components before and I was not to impressed. What about an ED12K? RE also has their RE line and SE lines you might want to look at.

Good Luck
