Okay, so I went and bought those CDT-61as from theZeb.com, but being the silly person I am I didn't realize that my truck can not fit the 6.5s...doh! Oh well, so I am going to return those, but are the CDT CL-51s as good as the 61s? I assume the only difference is the size, but wanted to make...

This is a pretty good sub...if you are looking for SQ. It doesn't take that much power to run, and can be bought for a little over $100 @ onlinecarstereo.com . This is my second 12'' sub, the one I had previously was a JL12W0. The Diamond Audio, in my opinion, is better than the JL12W0 in every...

Has anyone ever tried to put their 8s in a box set up like kick panels in the front? think there would be room (in any type of truck)?

When I turn the bass, bass boost, or the sub bass lvl down it makes it really hard to hear the bass from the sub (can hear it more from the factory speakers).

Yeah but i keep setting the gain down, it still clips. Actually when it clips, I think I can hear the bass from my factory speakers more than the D-Audio sub...this shouldnt be. I know the amp/sub are good to go since I put it in my roommates car and it bumped like nothing...so do you think I...

When I did this, for some reason it said my amp was clipping. I have an Alpine 9805 HU, would the wiring have something to do with the clipping? I went to a local shop today to see what they said...and they told me to wire it in series and it would get rid of the clipping. Is this true, or was...

Okay, so I have a Soundstream RUB500-2 which puts out 500x1 RMS @ 4 Ohms. My sub is a Diamond Audio CM3 12D4. So how would I wired the voice coils to still have the 4 Ohm load to the amp?

Well I checked to make sure it's grounded good...and It is. Later today I am going to put the amp/sub back in and do what you said about the HU settings for the sub. I checked, and am sure that the RCAs are in the right preout. If it still is clipping...do you think I might have recieved a...

Okay, I am having a problem with my Amp clipping (and the sub isnt even playing that loud when when it begins to clip.). I have an Alpine CDA-9805, Soundstream Rub-500, and D-Audio CM3 Sub. When I put the amp&sub into my roommates car attached to his HU, then it gets silly loud, and no...

I am debating on getting a SE, but really didnt know about the SQ on it. I have read a lot of posts about how the SE hits hard, but what about the SQ on it. I assume that you get better SQ out of a sealed box (their website says about 1.0cuft for sealed boxes), but what is the SQ with it sealed...

Used MTX Thunder4122 amp, great condition. MTX Thunder4122 amp: --Rated-- 4 Ohm Testing Min Spec. Actual THD+N = Signal-to-Noise >= 100dB 109dB Max Power @ 1% THD+N >30...

Well I'd like to keep it under 200 dollars for the sub. Obviously the cheaper the better...but I dont really want to buy something I won't be happy with...so If i have to fork over a little more money for something more reliable and of good quality, then I'd do that. BTW, I looked on the RE...

2.5 ft^3 must have had a brain fart while typing that. So what kind of SQ do the Re SE's get for you?

Okay, I have a soundstream Rub500-2 that puts out 500rmw bridged @ 4 ohms, and a 2.5inch ported box (fit for a 12). I am going to buy an alpine HU (not sure what model yet) whenever I buy the sub. I am not sure what kind of sub to get with this set up. I'd like a sub that has some decent SQ...

worth the extra cash that you would pay to get it over a K? what sub would you compare it too? does it get pretty loud...and have good sq?
