Fi Q?

Two Soundqubed HDS212 or HDS312. Most bang for your buck.

New H/U and speakers, upgraded electrical system, and ground shaking bass for 1.5K? I agree with NoLoud4U keep your current H/U, saved money already. Keep your speakers and electrical the way they are, for now. What i'd do first is subwoofer and amp. build your own box with the help of an...

Thanks for all the help guys! Lots of options to choose from now, including a PM recommending Zapco. Though according to the following statement I quoted from the same website I quoted earlier, the HDS312's would prefer a sealed enclosure since they have an EBP of 40 or 45. Right? And right now...

ok, thanks for clearing that up

Half of these amps me and members are suggesting are 1ohm stable. can't I wire the 4 ohm subs down to 1 ohm or wouldn't that be a good idea?

idk, lets say 400-800

"a sealed driver reaches maximum excursion at resonance, which adds considerably to the distortion produced at high output levels. A ported system receives maximum damping at resonance, with minimal driver excursion. The port "takes over" at Fb, and the driver hardly moves at all." - Quoted from...

Planning on powering two HDS312's in a sealed enclosure. Since the amp will be running much harder and hotter because I'm not going ported, would the Q1-2200 suffice? I was also thinking, the new KX series amp is known for its staying-cool capabilities and state of the art technology which would...

Your right lol every time i upgrade a monh or so later im kicking my own rear for not going louder! Guess ill keep it all qubed thanks guys Oh, are they CEA compliant??

So I think I'm going to go with the HDS312. Its more on the sound quality side and only 300 watts less. Now should i get the matching amp from Qubed or a KX1200.1? i know the kicker amp is way more expensive but I absolutely love the KX I have now. It never gets hot, its small, an all around...

Nothing upgraded but this isn't till tax time anyway so i got time to plan accordingly.

yea i probably cant afford the amp for 2 HDC 3.0 though, so i'll probably get one 4.0 or even one 3.0 just want to make sure I'm getting quality stuff too. i like that factory direct, thanks for letting me know. so as long as soundqubed is a quality product I'll choose that over sundown.

Ok, Kickers out. Now what about Sundown vs. Soundqubed. Seems like qubed i can get (2) HDC 3.0 for the price of one Z V.3. Is there a reason? which brand is more reliable, more durable, etc.

Straight to the point lol i was hoping somebody would say that though. don't u like the new kicker Rs? i listen to all types of music so could the 15 play rock, folk and reggae as well as it can rap and electronica?
