Help me pick out a SPL sub under $250

You are probably losing output with them firing into the cabin like that.

x2, fire the port back.

Has anybody heard the Orion H2 12" subs? I am thinking about buying some but I have never heard them. Here is a link to the sub - NOTE: The price in the link does not reflect what I will be paying for the subs, I can get 2 of them for under $500.

I am already running 2 type R's and a BXi1606D

I think you will hear a dramatic increase in output if you put another 2-300 on each sub.

Besides that. I can get you a HiFonics Brutus for like 150 (12's) or so. They are 2400RMS or something like that.

Yeah I saw those on ebay earlier for $220 for 2 of them shipped but I think those Orions I mentioned above are better.

I am now leaning twards 2 Orion H2's or 2 RE SX's...

Try the amp on the R's; do it.

And you never replied about your electrical system status, what upgrades have you done there? If you dont plan on an HO alt then forget running that amplifier.

Right now electrical system is stock, I have already done the big 3 and I will be getting a yellow top for under the hood and my Stock Alt puts out 130A but I am going to get it rewound to put out 200A. I doubt that the R's can handle 1800wrms each, and I dont want to fry them...

That amp is over rated, and they will take what it puts out.

Do it.
