budget SQ sub

[espguitarist91 10+ year member]

Well, im helping a friend setup a sub stage. Hes looking for mainly SQ. Ill be building the box, but it'll most likely be sealed, if not, then in a low tuned ported box. It has to be a single sub and can be a 12 or 15 and will be powered accordingly. He wants great SQ, but not weak on output either. The max he can spend on the sub is about 150 ish. I was looking at the infinity reference, MB quart reference, AA assassin, DA D3, etc..... So what do you think would be a good choice?

Any suggestions are appreciated. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

thanks

Or a 12" RL-P for $210 shipped. Comes with original box and everything. Its in mint condition and is signed by mike himself so he can pretend its new.

AA arsenal 12" is close to that price range

The AA Assasin or Arsenal

Well he doesnt want used, but thanks. So i realized the infinity perfects are a good choice too. I have four sitting in my basement but i have no car to put them in now, so i cant comment on them.(dont want to sell to him either)

Well, out of the woofers, what do you think wouyld be the best choice? Im looking at mainly the infinity perfects(or kappas), AA assasin(arsenal is too much), mb quart reference, the DA D3, and possibly the PG rsd.

How would those compare. Im thinking the mb quart would give the best sq, and probably the PG being the loudest, but im not sure on the sq of it. So, whats your thoughts?

Your local authorized dealer.

http://www.sounddomain.com is the only authorized internet dealer, and they are carrying very little of ID's products at the moment.

infinity perfects have decent sq for the price......

 

[espguitarist91 10+ year member]

yea, i figured. and theyd problally get pretty loud in a decent ported box. i think im going to go with the rsd though. Its supposed to have awesome sq qhile getting loud and its cheap, so it sounds good.
