hey guys, ive got my choices narrowed down to seven different subs. please just read the stuff and tell me what you think would be the best quality for cash decision. thanks...

1. Rockford Fosgate HX2 RFD2212 12" DVC SUB (only 1 sub)

**$129.00

Rockford Fosgate Punch HX2

12" Dual Voice Coil Subwoofer

New model for 2001

BRAND NEW IN ORIGINAL CARTON!

One low-frequency roar from the RFD2212 and those inferior subwoofers will be scrambling for cover. This Punch HX 12" subwoofer is built with the famous Rockford Fosgate attitude - a no-compromises commitment to deep, powerful, and realistic bass.

The FIBERlock cone of treated cured paper is strong and light for high performance and excellent transient response. Those bass notes go down smooth, too, thanks to a durable Santoprene rubber surround that controls the cone's path for maximum excursion.

The cast aluminum frame basket reduces flex and resonance for greater accuracy, while aluminum formers allow the voice coils to dissipate heat quickly. The dual 4-ohm voice coils can be wired as a 2-, 4-, or 8-ohm load, giving you more options when hooking up your system. 1-year warranty.

Features:

dual 4-ohm voice coils

CONsealer gasket hides mounting screws and prevents air leaks around the frame

frequency response 26-200 Hz

power range 150-500 watts RMS (250 watts per voice coil)

peak power 1,000 watts

2. PAIR CERWIN VEGA 12 HED SVC SUBS 800W

**$127.00

CERWIN-VEGA

HED-12 SVC

12 COMPONENT SUBWOOFER

PAIR OF SUBS! 2 PC'S

BRAND NEW IN FACTORY SEALED CARTON

The woofer cone is constructed of injection-molded pearl-mica polypropylene coated with a titanium-nickel alloy. Uniform pearl-mica crystals form an overlapping structure that adds strength and heat resistance to polypropylene, resulting in reduced distortion and improved reliability. In addition, the titanium-nickel alloy coating adds even more strength, giving you deep powerful bass.

VEGA-flex Suspension

The V-Flex surround mechanically resists lateral "cone drift" for perfect pistonic movement of the cone, a distinct advantage particularly in high power handling. Outstanding linearity under hard drive/high power applications; long throw with minimum lateral cone "drift"; resists ultraviolet radiation. High power handling with low distortion; extended low bass output.

High Energy Strontium Ferrite Magnet and Handwound Voice Coil

The 112-ounce motor assembly and 2" precision hand-wound voice coil provide high efficiency and greater control for fast transient response and sonic accuracy.

Titanium Nickel Alloy Vapor-deposition Polypropylene Injection-molded Pearl-mica Cone

Uniform cone thickness; proprietary ribbing pattern for rigidity. Deep powerful bass and smooth response; detailed percussive attack; low distortion under extreme loading conditions.

High Temperature Kapton Voice Coil Former

Increased magnetic efficiency; excellent heat dissipation for high thermal power handling.

KEY FEATURES

Titanium-nickel plated polypropylene cone

Power range 200 watts RMS each 400 watts total RMS

Peak power 400 watts each 800 watts max

BRAND NEW IN FACTORY SEALED CARTON

New model for 2001

AUDIOBAHN AW1000

10" HIGH EXCURSION WOOFER

Power Handling: 600 watts R.M.S.

High output bass is all about high excursion - if you want maximum SPL, you've gotta move some serious air. That's why Audiobahn's AW series subwoofers have Phat 2" foam surrounds and non-pressed, non-transfer paper cones coated with KM3 for huge amounts of excursion. To handle the rigors of tremendous linear movement, the baskets are made from ultra-stiff chrome plated cast aluminum, and even the back plate is machined and chromed. Designed for super high output, the AW1000 features huge 120 oz. double-stacked Strontium magnets, a vented and extended pole piece, and a 2" ASV former with dual 4-layer high-temp 4 ohm voice coils. All this beauty and brawn comes packaged in a heavy-duty wooden gift crate

KICKER

C12 COMPETITION

12" SUBWOOFER PAIR NEW IN BOX!

Kicker C12 Competition

Sub Woofer

Description:

The legendary KICKER Comp - pound for pound, dollar for dollar, there's no other sub like it on the planet. It's the sub that made KICKER famous and a universal standard when it comes to making bass. All the innovative design and performance you expect from a KICKER sub are built into every Comp.

Like the XPL and CompVR, the KICKER Comp kicks that famous KICKER bass sound from a sealed cabinet much smaller than most. And now the new Comp gives you even more installation options with great bass performance in ported enclosures and even freeair, with no enclosure at all. It's the most flexible subwoofer KICKER has ever created. Updated for the 21st Century, the 2001 KICKER Comp has a rigid cone with our trademark Inverted Structural Dome for superior flex resistance, increased throw to move even more air, and enhanced thermal dissipation (thanks to Perimeter Venting built into the trick new basket) for cooler operation and longer life.

*****OK******

Im sorry that it is soo long but i just need some "professional" help because i dont know much about this whole thing yet...i decided to post all of the information on each set because it might help you compare better...I really need you guys' help and this is the last time i will bug you so please just tell me what you think...later guys, Nick

 
I would first look at the HX2s then the Kickers..I think the kicker may be better for SQ and the Fosgate for SPL..Probably the HEDs for a third choice and leave the rest off..

Mike

 
i'd go with the kickers since u can get two of them. but if u can get two hx2's, i'd go for that. but i always recommend 2 subs over 1 sub if their qualities can be compared (ie. 2 jl's against 1 kicker, 2 eclipses over 1 fosgate, and blah blah blah).

 
You say the Kickers have good SQ, are they still going to bump hard and rattle around some??:p I like the sound of good sound quality but i also want heavy bass too!!

screw what i said before about defined bass...now that ive talked to some ppl at school i just want whatever will hit the hardest. later, Nick
