12" off 500RMS? ID/Diamond/AA/JL ??

[LeX 10+ year member]

OK i got a box thats around 2.0@30hz after port and sub displacement

i am bridging the rear channels of an orion XTR800.4 for around ~480watts RMS @4ohm

Trying to decide on which sub I want

music is rock with occasional rap/hip hop and techno

I want to keep sub budget to 100-150, 200 if i have to but prefer to keep it down....

money is scarce

cardomain has ID12v3 for 99 shipped which seems like a nice deal for sure...

could pick up a 12inch AA assasin for dirt cheap

friend has a JL 12w6v1 could get around 100

also seen a diamond D6 for the low 100s

is there a better choice or what else is floating around for SQL

How about a Treo TSX? Good blend of SPL and SQ

The JL is a dual 6 ohm sub, so make sure the amp is stable into 3 ohms....

Of the ones you listed I'd probably go with the AA

Treo is an option, ive never heard one. Are they around on the used market?

Will be there when I get home //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Used would be the way to get it in that price range, I think the retail is ~$250, someone please correct me if I'm wrong

D6.....Sounds great....very clean and smooth. Also get pretty fcking loud too.

The ID and assassin are not in the same league as the W6/ D6

I vote D6 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Exactly how much are you getting the d6 for? Link?

 

[954runner 10+ year member]

type r??? not so much sql but its an option...

 

[joebangaa 10+ year member]

if you can get the D6 i'd try to do that. the W6v1 is probably near the end of it's life. otherwise i'm sure the assassin and ID would do the job just fine

12'' type R or 12'' type S. the S will be louder but not play the lower notes as well

 

[jacka 10+ year member]

the D6 is a great sql sub. loud yet plays each note perfectly. it will be good off 480 rms but it will take more and love it. i would say the id has the same sq, maybe just a tad bit more, but less spl.
