memphis m3 or what?

The HCCA is on backorder, orion doesn't know when it will be back. so im building a small, yet loud system.

the amp is going to be a 1000 watt rms arc audio amp. i just need a sub..im looking at a single 12'' and for some reason im leaning towards the memphis sub. i'm going to a competition on sunday and i want to get this straightened out before that.

in terms of best bang for your bucks, do you guys think the m3 is a decent choice? i have had their old subs, the power reference. i want to do a decent number though, but have a single 12'' getting 1000 watts

i dont know why but i just like the sound of 12''s

I'd do an Rl-p.

There's a guy on the board who swapped out his M3 for Rl-ps and it got a good bit louder.

You could probably find it by searching.

treo tsx or a dd 3512 would be my choices.

memphis m3's do a pretty good number, plus sounds good at the same time. 2 12's with 1,000rms will do around 145-148Db depending on box, and with a memphis std-1000 on each each sub it will break 150Db. Cant go wrong with them. DD cost to **** much, but some bad *** subs

I would go with a Memphis HPO (if you can find one) over an M3. From what Ive heard, it sounds just a little bit better on music. Plus I had one last year. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
