Are these subs any good? There is a 12" on ikesound.com for $125. I only want a single 12" since I am going to get a new car around December. What other recommendations do you have? Budget is around $180 & I will buy them amp after the sub probably going to buy a HiFonics since I don't have much $$$ and I might use the amp in my next car. these are some of the other two subs I've been looking at: Thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

Anyone heard this sub before. I though I saw some Pioneers on someone's sig but I am not sure who it was. Thanks

I have the Pioneer TS-W2000SPL's and they kick ass. Traksta14 has them too and he loves the set up. Never had experience with the particular ones your looking at, though.

those subs are a few bucks cheaper at this site - http://www.hotbuyselectronics.com/pioneer_ts_w3004spl.htm

I put some of the old SPL2000 Premiers in when we had them and we just got the new 3004s in a few weeks ago. I just put a few in last week and I think they are f***ingf awesome personally. They are not XXXs or anything but they are killer for Pioneers and get pretty **** loud. They also don't take as big of a ported box as a lot of higher end 12"s to get big output.

Pioneer makes somewhat decent subs. My friend has two Pioneer(dont know the model, probably cheapos) in a little sealed box he made in his Camaro they sound pretty loud. Def not for audiophiles but they are pretty nice.

Matter of fact I like them so much I bought a few at our yearly BOGO sale today... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Pioneer makes a few different levels of subs. You have the cheapo Wal Mart subs, which are total crap in general. Next you have the medium line subs, which are nothing spectacular, but I had 8 12"s in my old Eclipse a few years ago and could not blow them for anything, they were bulletproof. These are good all around subs, ok SQ and get pretty loud for the $$$. The good Premier SQ sub is the kevlar cone yellow PRS series they are making now, which sound great. My TSW3004SPL is an upgraded version of last years TSW2000SPL borrowing technology from the TSW5000SPL 70 Pound sub, which recently did 176+ at a db drag show in the Edge Audio truck. Anyway my baby SPL subs are HUGE, power is 1000 RMS, the tinsel leads are around 12 gauge wire, the VC is large, and they get insanely loud. I like them because they will work in any enclosure you want to put them in, plus to get as loud as they do they don't sound bad. Since they finally just came out with some decent amps for the first time in several years I thought about doing those but I can't get the power/VC config I want so I will probably get a couple of Hifonics class d's.

thanks for the input. I might give these a try. I am glad to see that you really don't need a huge box for them to work nice. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

what are you guys going to use for an amp??

 

[tj'sProbe 10+ year member]

also are u going to use a 1 cubuc ft box like the specs say,

I'm either going to use a couple of Brutus BX 1500's or looking more like a single Gen XX Colossus. I want around 750-800 w per sub RMS. I am also going to design my own box, probably around 1.75-2.25 feet per sub ported. As far as sealed these would sound good and still thump in the 1 cube.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif
