I wouldn't day that. Dan Wiggins is the man. Steven is just A man //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gifSo, you could say, You've heard it from Steven. A man.
But a man that works for Adire tends to be better than a man that works for Joe's Waffles and Beef.
Powerhandling is enclosure dependant. If you go with a large enclosure, you won't need as much power. Let me know what you are looking for (as loud as possible, or sound good as well), and I can give you a recomendation.hey so i am looking at the shiva 12 but what amp should i get also is a amp that doesnt have as many watts as the sub gonna be a bad thing ok any suggestions would be helpfull
Dude, you are in Medford Oregon? I just moved from there about 2 and a half months ago. What I recomend you doing is go down to Pacific Stereo, and ask for an installer named Delmar. I used to work with him, and he is now an Adire dealer. He really knows his stuff, and should be able to get you what you need.hey steve thanks yea i have a hatch back subaru so i have a lot of yet want to use as little as possible also i am looking mostly for spl i listen to a lot of rap and want a sub thats gonna hit hard and make my whole car shake, i was looking at a cheaper four channel clarion amp for 150again i dont have much money
The Shiva's have changed a little bit cosmetically, and are now a little more robust. But as Dan has said before, you can take a Mark I Shiva, and drop in a Mark IV Shiva and get the same results. The parameters haven't changed.I was looking at a bunch of budged blaster subs, and was thinking about the shiva 12 also.. I have about 2.5 cubes to work with, and 500w at 4 ohms. For the price of the shivas i might be able to get 2 of them for the price of some of the others i'm looking at, but i haven't looked into the shiva recently (in a year or so) have they changed at all, my amp will work at 2.5-3 ohms, but not much lower. I can't remembe the impedences of the shivas off the top of my head, but i'll look at your website to get some more info.
Just figured i'd take advantage of your experience with your products //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
