[QUOTE="FL Boater, post: 4962333, member: 600598"] Hi guys, I've been lurking for a while trying to soak up some knowledge but my head still spins every time I start looking at subwoofer specs. I'm hoping for a little guidance. I have a 24' open bow boat. It has a Sony CDX-M50ip with iPod control and Sirius radio. I replaced the speakers with Infinity 6.5" 602M's and added an Infinity 7541a amp to push them. Now I need to add some thump. I may have jumped the gun, but I bought an Infinity 611a mono amp that puts out 456w at 4 ohms and 657w at 2 ohms. I have room for one 10" sub and a sealed box of about .75 to 1 cf. I am not an audiophile and am looking for strong bass so I would say SPL is more important than SQ. I would like to spend $100 or less. I have been looking at an Alpine SWR-1042D [URL="http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/product.php?model=SWR-1042D"]http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/product.php?model=SWR-1042D[/URL]thinking that might be a good match for my system. Any comments about this sub? Any suggestions of another sub that might perform better in my setup? Maybe even one that's better but CHEAPER?[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] Thanks in advance for any help. I have enjoyed reading the forums and have learned a lot. I hope to have some knowledge of my own to share in the future. Cheers, Chris [/QUOTE]
