Best sounding sub @500w RMS???

[bose301s 5,000+ posts]

The BM I have for sale in my sig will easily take 500 watts and will sound better than any sub mentioned in this thread, and it's only $115 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I'd agree with the BM //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Or possibly an Exodus DPL-10.

But if you're looking for "a hit", I think you need to reconsider your priorities...

a little above his budget.

boston G5 would do well with that amount of power. Small box size is a plus also.

i was gonna say the g2... g5 would take the power ebtter but im pretty sure the g2 could hang with that.. if not - very close...

they are both defently underrated

i got two g1s for now and they laugh at the 200 they're rated at

Let's raise that budget to $250 for a single 12".

Every so often you can find one floating for that price range.

RE SE is a pretty good sounding woofer.

RD Sonance is a very very good sounding woofer.

SI BM is a pretty good sounding woofer.

FI Q aint too bad neither.

I wouldnt call a 12w6v1 or v2 a bad sounding woofer either, ha

I don't see anything wrong with that choice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If he can find one used, it'd be a good option.

Stereo Integrity Mag v4...really no question, now.

I don't know what else can touch it for that price //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I must be blind but they are out of stock on those.

Treo TE or TSX 12.

If you can wait a month or so (probably less) they will be getting another shipment in.

I've heard a Mag before and I liked the sound of the Sonance better :hides:

Okay now the list is for sure here:

Boston G5

RD Sonance

Mag V4

12w6v1/v2

RE SE

Fi Q

IDMAX(needs a tad more power, but will do fine anyways)

Mach 5 IXL possibly

Sealed MJ18?

Diamond Audio makes some nice sounding woofers

Maybe you could get lucky and find a JBL GTI but it needs more powa

Sorry, I'm just rambling now. Best of luck

ahh the choices the choices. So yesterday at work i was talking to a guy i work with and it turns out he had a Rockford T1000.1 bd that he didnt want so he sold it to me for $100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so i mean thats the power i have but im still not looking to spend more than 150$ on a sub cause i have a little BMW that cant handle anything to crazy.

i may take up the offer on the DD 1512. What you guys think about these subs?

and how do the SI BMs sound?
