Honestly thinking about throwing it in a sealed box again, I used to have it in a TINY sealed box, it sounded ok, I don't think I even broke the sub in fully before I made the ported box that it's in now I think if I threw it in a bigger sealed box now that the sub is broke in and such it might...

I've honestly never even thought of that... hm, it might be but I think i've put my head near the port when it's playing and it seems to be coming from the sub or the port, I am probably wrong though I don't know much about this kind of thing. My car is a hunk of **** too so I know it's probably...

wish it were my friend, they're disconnected, lol

I want to build a new box for my 12'' Type R because the box that it's currently in doesn't sound so great with a lot of music/songs... It's in something like 2.5 cubes tuned @ 32-35hz... I forget the exact specs of the box, I think it's one of the free box plans from the sticky thread. It...

yeah these look decent, pretty cheap too, i might give'em a try, anyone heard the MB Quart FKA 116's run from a HU?? MB Quarts are 40 rms

more than willing to steep this low if they'd sound better than any nice speakers running off of 16 rms

:boobies:

What exactly defines an "efficient" speaker? I'm looking at the MB Quart FKA 116's right now, they seem like they might do better than the kappa's from headunit power... their rating is only 40RMS and they seem to have good reviews... hm

I have 6.5 infinity kappa co-ax's in my front doors running off my head unit power and obviously they sound terrible and distort terribly at any decently high volume ( even when bass is set to ZERO on the deck ) Are there any 6.5 co-ax's that would sound decent from a head unit? ( Alpine 9852...

yeah i have the same ipod hookup on my alpine deck, unfortunately that's just how it is

i see, from what i've seen here 500 rms isn't enough to light up an R, huh? any good amp recommendations? that don't break the bank

not much really, if anything, i wouldn't want a huge loss though, just looking for something new ya know

New question, RSDC 124's get loud? Off of 500RMS and the box I have and thanks for all of your opinions, always help

rsdc's geared towards SQ or SPL? Louder than R's? And like I said, I only have 500 RMS , and the box is 2.2 cuft @ 36hz before any sub but i am interested, cause they are reasonably priced as well

Hm, is 500 RMS enough to push any of those subs decently? I hear a lot of good things about AQ SDC2.5's here, and the pheonix gold rsdc is somewhat catching my attention
