I've been out of the car audio game for a long time, and I'm trying to play catchup and read up on it again.
I'm lookin to put in a daily sub in my car, but I can't decide what I want. Back when my buddys were heavy into car audio they had some nice systems, RE XXX, Brahma 15's, etc... I liked them.
Mainly I'm afraid the SEX isn't gonna get the SPL I want, the the Brahma isn't going to get the SQL I want lol.
I listen to a lot of metal, so the sub needs to keep up (I'm not sure what to look for on a spec sheet to figure out how "fast" it is) but I throw in the occasional trance and inde hip hop.
Also I have a few bands that have uber low bass, most systems I try to play it in won't even pick up the low notes very well. Again, I don't know what to look for to figure out what I need, but I would assume it would be some box building black magic to straighten it out.
any help would be great. fwiw I'm trying to get a sub and amp for under $450... we'll see how that goes lol.
