are you talking about subwoofers or mids?

I Just want a speaker that gives me some bass. I will upgrade to a sub later, but for now i just want something with decent bass

From what I've read, I would say try the ED Eu-700....

for every octave lower you go...it requires double the displacement. There is no free lunch unless you go with a horn setup, but then you must sacrifice a TON of space to get LF response.

6.5" speakers simply cannot replicate the high-end and low-end without disrupting either...

The cone speaker simply doesnt have enough surface area and linear excursion to augment the low-end. As it is, most 6.5s (actually like 5.5" across) should be crossed below 2500hz as 2500hz is ~the wavelength of the cone and the driver will severly beam once it passes that point...=terrible off-axis response up high if you use a large cone.

~1700hz for an 8

~1350hz for a 10

~1116hz for a 12

~900hz for a 15

The driver would need an insane amount of excursion to augment the low-end if using a small diaphragm...this would require a massive voice coil and inductance would be quite high limiting your upper frequency response once again.

ok...well. thanks for the help guys. Its looking like the ONLY WAY to even get OK bass is to buy a sub

 

[thadman 10+ year member]

yeah...you really cant get around it.

u can get some pretty decent subs cheap.

check out ascendantaudio.com

i believe its the assasin line of woofers.

listen to mrswiss, get a single 8" assassin for 50 bucks or a tang bang 8" from partsexpress.com for $50 both great bang for the buck subs

and u should also realize that anything less than a "woofer" class speaker shouldnt really be getting anything lower than around 80hz, not at a decent volume level.
