As the title says my budget is $500, my birthday was today and what could be better to spend all my birthday money on?? I'm looking for something that hits hard, i was thinking maybe 2 12's? I mainly enjoy Rap and hip-hop but also enjoy the classical rock on the occasion....so something to fit both worlds would be great.

I need sub(s), amp and an enclosure. It will be going in the trunk of my subaru...but i am looking at getting a new car, so just something that can fit in a standard car trunk.

I do have some experience, i wired in my last pair of subs, and they sounded great. I used to have 2 Pheonix gold 10s, but in seperate boxes...I really dont know what is best in the way of enclosure size, ported or unported and boxed together or seperate; if you could answer these questions i'd be most appritiative!

So just any advice on where to buy this would be great, if they are as a package that would be nice, but if someone out there is a car audio genious and 100% sure about a certain setup i'd be willing to go that route too.

EDIT: I am now interested in getting a single SPL or SQL 12" sub, somethin that pounds...and still at a package cost of $500. THANKS!

Many Thanks,

G

 
Read much?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/*******.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif
Ahh.. I skim just like everyone else! haha.

Go with 2 type R twelve dual 4 ohm woofers. Find an amp for around 200 that is about 1300-1500+ at 1 ohm. And use the rest to have someone build you an enclosure... Will surely be a nice setup for the rap, and should be decent for the rock... Won't win any SQ competitions, but should be nice and loud.
