better SQ: SE or SX?

[skeptikal Premium Member]

I doubt that.SE gets pretty loud for just 1 sub.

SE>SX in terms of SPL.

But they are by no means a SQ sub.

are you serious?

Alright I was starting to doubt myself I'm glad I'm not alone on that one. So is there a better answer? Is there a sub with a great balance???????

Dude, Hyperpros get LOUD. I'm being serious.

I think it had something about them being manufactured by Eminence or something.

simple search would have gave you all your answers //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif. But yes the SX is known as an spl oriented sub with fair sq(prolly a hit or miss like usual though; love it or hate it.) The SE is suppose to get pretty **** loud and sound good doing so. Only RE sub I have heard is my XXX, so I dont know from experience. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif.

I used to own an SE. I just sold it actually to someone locally. I had my 12" SE in a 2 cube net box tuned at 33hz. It got freakin louuud for just a single sub, and the best part is I was only giving it 300 watts. It sounded very good IMO, and I probably didn't have it EQ'd right.

just my $0.02, and I have heard a XXX which btw does sound better.

If the the SX is even remotely in your budget...GO FOR IT. It's loud a shit, and still sounds good. BUT, in ultimate SQ...SE>SX

IMO the SE has a bit smoother response than the SX, but the SX still has good SQ potential.

It also needs 2x the power, which in turn, costs even more money

Saying it NEEDS 2x the power is a bit of a stretch...

i hate to go off topic, but while we are on the subject of the SE... do i wire it like this? hooked up to a jl 500/1 amp

also, will 12 gauge wire going from my amp to the SE be ok?
