IA 187s VS Planet Audio Zetars

[Nova76 10+ year member]

are we talking about planet audio zetars of today or the ones from like 5 years ago. the zetars from 5 years ago are some bad ass subs. the ones of today are kinda cheap.

there the older ones 01 S 10 has for sale idk how old they are but i know there not the new ones there selling

more is not always better. Just stuffing a trunk / suv with woofers IS NOT going to be louder then less subs in the CORRECT install. The 10's in this case would most likely handle to power better per say. More coil = usually more power handling thermally

im not going to be just stuffing my trunk with subs which ever sub i get imna be building a ported box later on to match the subs specs right now i just want to know if 4 10s will be better on a 1ohm load VS 3 12s on a 1.34 load both off a Hifonics 1606D

Personally, i don't even think you will notice a difference. The Hifonics is already underrated. Go with the IA's. Great subs, and what the 187's are selling for right now, you can't beat that price.

Well, if he was using rulers as speakers... He'd be dead on.

True. Maybe someone should start making ribbon subwoofers so the poor guy doesn't feel inadequate.

You mean overrated. The most he'll see out of that amp is about 1300wrms. If you're looking at IA, I'd just go with a couple Lethal Injection 15s.

i would but theres a little thing called money that i dont have right now thats why im JUST asking about these subs because its a good deal on both of them and i know the amp is underrated and everone told me they are by like 100-200rms so id be either seeing 1400wrms or probly like 1000-1100wrms and i think i would see a difference bettween 400rms i noticed a difference bettween 900rms and 1200rms

MAYBE, MAYBE you'd see .1-.3 db difference on a meter. But you wouldn't be able to tell a difference to the ear.

Looks like OP made up his mind long before making his post, that he is not getting the IAs...

idk im leaning more to the 10s because ill get more power out of my amp and im not really concerned about noticing the diff by ear but by meter
