ok so maybe this isnt a subwoofer section question, but i figure its ok
my buddy has a system is his camaro which roughly consists of a clarion headunit, kenwood amp, and orion subs...he has complained that he cant really feel the thump of a good kick drum....all he hears is superlow stuff and he wants more midbass....i have already messed with the amps Xovers and we cant get the sound he wants
i read a CAAE article about how the kick drum thump is heard between 100 and 500 Hz, which isnt within the Orion's ideal operating range, so he wants to get some midbass drivers...his in dash speakers are small so no chance of midbass there
he wants to spend around 60 bucks on a pair of decent midbass drivers....im gonna build the boxes for him, and he is gonna use an amplifier whose specs i currently dont have...ill look em up and post em later...its a decent amplifier, not HUGe power but not weak either...
any suggestions for brands? anything you have used personally that you can recommend? any other approaches to fixing this problem?
thanks to all replies //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
