[QUOTE="johnwohl, post: 8635994, member: 589014"] Currently: -2013 Infiniti G37x -1x JL audio 12w6v2 dual 4 ohm -2.25ft box ported at 28hz -using about 600-700 watts clean power from good old orion not breaking a sweat. I don't know the exact power it's using but I set the gains no where near distortion from sub or amp) -140 amp stock alt, AGM bat, big 3 and power to amp 4ga ofc. sounds great, not peaky, and really grabs the lows but I would like more SPL and I'll be honest my equipment is really old and I kind of just want new stuff. I was gifted an audiopipe APCL 1500.1 so I'll be using that. On to the requirements. Number of subs preferred: 1 or 2 Size preferred (if configuration allows): 12 inch Budget: $100-500. somewhere in the middle preferable unless there is something to blow my mind compared to cheaper subs. I'm not about spending several hundred more for a few DBz. Power to be used (which amp(s), include which resistance): APCL 1500.1 @ 1 ohm. Space available (take measurements, do not guess): 2.25ft, aero ported so I can change port length no prob. Goals: Good SQ (tbh the 12w6 is pretty ridiculous), much Higher SPL if possible, will be ported low for flatter response and low range extension. Listening habits: Hip Hop (new stuff, kendrick, sad rap, horrorcore etc.), Deathcore and other metal, Rap (mainstream radio stuff), R&B, electronic, jazz, classical. I typically run with the sub just above the normal level of the music (a little extra bass and sinus pressure), no dimming lights, but when my gf is in the car she likes it cranked and the car falling apart. Not gonna lie, I like it too, but I feel like a tool driving around like that. Preferred brands/subs/whatever: No brand preference. I have no idea what's even decent anymore. Thanks in advance!
