$5.000 sub budget

[spencer321 10+ year member]

zanesville ohio two lanzar optidrives that i havnt tried yet and two mtx 8000 series class ds that i have used before. thats what i have for the subs for now i may have two use all four to get the power i need or try to sell them and get two new amps. i was going to try all four first.

i recommend selling amps and starting over... but thats just me. just a "for example" if you sold your amps and only got 500 for them (im shooting low on purpose so it doesn't seam impossible)

so you have 5500... assuming you have the power to back it up which you claim you do... i'd get 4 of the aq3500's while they are on sale, 550 shipped, that still leaves you with 3300$ for subs, say 4 18's, thats 825$ a subwoofer, more than enough for fully loaded BTLs, or Nightshades etc etc...

and keep in mind thats assuming you can only get 500 for all 4 of your amps... so you have plenty of wiggle room. however if you don't have the electrical to keep up with 14k watts... may want to relook at your goals and budget

Why does everyone think you need the biggest and baddest sub to get loud? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

well i already get loud with some lower end stuff and i have never been able to aford the higher end stuff so i want to try some and i hope i am not going to be disapointed. i have been very disapointed with some midle of the road stuff like i bought some 12" p3s new $250 each i have them hanging on a wall in my garage just to show people what a pile of crap p3s are

My stepdad has three 12" P3's sealed in a std cab truck with an old RF 1000a1 and it gets pretty **** loud for the power.....I guess it should since it is in a standard cab truck...but still.

It can move the windshield wipers pretty good sometimes.....Not bad for around 900-1000Wrms

I know they are not the best, but they don't sound bad for what he paid for them. And I am pretty **** sure he didn't pay $250ea!! I think it was about that price for a pair...

his post says new 250 each... im not denying they can get decently loud, but you'll see more type r's in the lanes than P3's...

I think design should be more of a focus before subs.... just saying.. figure out what you want to do then look at subs and their parameters and see if its possible..
