Changing things up

[Bloodstalker999 10+ year member]

Ok so I think I am going to trade my 2 Kicker CVX's for a go-kart //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif and this gives me the opportunity to get new sub set up. I probably should deaden my doors and get comps first but the speakers I have in there now do ok. So I am thinking of going for mainly SQ because SQ is all the time and SPL is only when I can crank it.

I was at wolly world getting speaker wire and was checking out the HU they had there (just window shopping) and seen they had a pioneer sub there and it sounded pretty good. So I was thinking that I would like to go with a pioneer, but do they make a 15"?

I have a kicker sx1250.1 that has 1359 on the birth sheet so my question for you my fellow members is what is a good SQ 15" sub that would go good with that amp?

Also how good is the sx1250.1 for SQ?

and yes I am still a noob (not super a noob) but have been reading a shit load and learning a lot.

And as always thanks for all and any help //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Please don't take this as the complete bash that it might end up appearing to be but I would suggest if the complete bottom-end Pioneer drivers that Wally World carries sounded good to you then I don't think it will take too awful much to please your ear and qualify, at least to you, as an "SQ" setup.

If you've got 1.3 kilowatts+ to work with then the list of possibilities is wide and varied.

Does that amp make that power @ 1 Ohm or what?

If so what it the output at higher resistences? I ask because just because you can have that much output doesn't mean you have to use it if that configuration doesn't suit your purposes.

Example - my sub amp can make 1,500w + when shown a 1 Ohm load but currently I'm running it at 2 Ohms.

I appriciate the honesty and bluntness. I am not going for a competition like SQ setup, just more SQ oriented setup. Also I think your right about the not taking too much to please my ear because I have not been around car audio long enough to listen to a huge variety of subs. Also I feel that I should clarify that I am a newb in the since that I haven't had much experience doing setups but I know most of the technical stuff.

The amp does 1.3k at 1ohm and its rated at 650 at 2 ohm and anything above that I can't find specs for.

a pair of mach 5's may please you.. or some lower end TC sounds.. they're both quality and low priced and My bet is that you will be the only person in your area with either of those brands

Well my price range would be around $200 for the 1 15" guess I should have stated that.

Thanks for the replies keep them coming!
