I am looking for some suggestions on subs to replace the two Eclipse SW8122DVC 12's I have now.
Here is what I have:
Kenwood DNX-7100
Audio Control Matrix
Audio Control EQS
Boston Acoustics ProSeries 6.0 (front)
Powered by US Amps USA-4300x @ 3Ohm Bridged.
According to the O-Scope, I am getting ~460w per bridged channel @ 3Ohm (unclipped)
Stock rears power by HU
(2) Eclipse 12" SW8122 Dual 4Ohm
Powered by US Amps USA-1000x @ 2Ohm stereo
According to the O-Scope I am getting ~630wpc @ 2Ohm stereo (unclipped)
The boxes the subs are in are "not much more" than 1^3 sealed, gross internal volume.
Pic of everything:
Box dimensions are:
The bottoms are ~13"x16"
The tops are a 15" circle
The "low side" is about 9" high
The "high side" is about 12" high
3/4" MDF used for bottom and sub ring. Rest is fiberglass.
My goals: Maintain high SQ as I currently have, but find something that is more efficient than the heavy coned Eclipses, that will get much louder on the USA-1000x. I would like to keep the same boxes (due to fitment, and cost). They are in the trunk of a 2006 Pontiac GTO. So, the subs need to fit in the boxes I have, be a high SQ sub, but be efficient and put out a lot of sound at ~600w per sub (and be wireable to 2Ohm per sub or 4Ohm combined - all the amp can handle).
TIA!
