hey guys im going to be geting my new subs in a few days at my local shop and i have narowed it down but need your help to make my last desision.

the box is a dual 12 box with 1cft of air space for each sub.

these are the canadates

new model memphis m3

eclipse 7200

rockford punch stage 3's

mb quart premiums

alpine type r's

i was going to get the ed 130v.2's but i desided not to get them because i had problems in the past and im not shure the quality and service is there.

i need them to be dual 4ohm dvc subs so i can wire them to 1ohm.

my memphis belle is rated at 1100 watts@ 1 ohm and i dont know if they are under rated or not so ill go by the 1100 watt spec.

im thinking that the box is to small for the m3's but figured i would add them in there to get some opinions. please help guys im geting a little fustrated with trying to get my system the way i want it and im tires of buying stuff thats not what i need.

im not looking for car breaking bass just loud and clean but i want it to get loud when i feel like it

I'd like to start off by saying that if you buy through that shop, you're going to get warranty BUT you're going to lose your *** in how much it costs.

Out of the choices, I guess I'd have to go with the Type R's. Cheap and 550 rms is a pretty good bit for them, although I hate you have to seal the subs.

My choices would be the Type R's and the MB Quarts

is 2 cu ft for 2 x 12" a bit small?

 

[Trepkos 10+ year member]

Yes, atleast 1.3ft^2 per chamber.

the shop i got to gives me stuff cheap and will trade me for new stuff when i want and gives me almost what i paid for it.i have been shoping with him for about 6 years and will fix it if i have a problem. and i was thinking the box is a little small for the m3's and i like the type r's.

i would figure the mb quarts would have good sq and the eclipse's look to be good so im still confused. ill check in to the type r's.the guys will also let me try the subs to see if i like em before i buy them so maybe ill try the m3's and eclipse's.thanks for the info guys and i ya got and more please share.

i like the m3's but i dont want to hurt them in small box but maybe with some polyfill it will be ok?there m1's are good for a small box but wont handle the power.im leaning toward the quarts or the eclipse's. like i said i would reather have sq than sloppy bass that dont hit low. i just want loud low and clear.
