Just trying to make up my mind...

So Would it be louder to run two subs (let's say Pioneer Premiers, or any random brand, but the same model) at 1000w, OR 1 sub at the same wattage. Let's also say that the two 500w subs are 10", and the larger one is 12".

Thanks.

One last thing. When I have asked about what brand subs to get, and stuff, people will always steer me away from certain brands. Why? What makes them "bad"?

I'm am thinking I am going to be buying a new sub very shortly.

Alright. Forget about my first post completely.

If you guys has AROUND 100$ to spend on a new sub/s WHAT would you buy. (the 100$ is somewhat flexible, absolutely no more than 200$ shipped.)

so u need something to wire down to 1ohm that can take about 1800watts. Not many choices out there in that price range

type argghhh i suppose

I can do less though.

If I set it properly it won't be sending more than I want to the sub right?

Could I put 1000w into a type R? And not wreck it?

I could get a 3600w Pyle for 80$ LOL//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

R have been known to take lots of power, 1000watts should be good, depends on ur install tho

 

[miker 5,000+ posts]

What about my install? As in the box I use?

BTW I'm looking into the 10" model, as of right now.

Alright looks like I'll do that. Just wish BestBuy had them for a reasonable price... They charge ****ing 200$ for them... Do you think 100$ shipped on Ebay will be the cheapest I can find one for?
