RË XXX or MT w/pïcs

[SHiZNiLTi 10+ year member]

The amp that will be used for the sub I'm deciding on is 1200watts rms x 1

It has XeLOAD circuitry for full power into any load from 4 ohms to 1-ohm...

This is my xtreme. I have about 150sq. ft. of Dynamate Xtreme in it. I have 28" max for box width in the rear hatch. I need to keep the spare tire in so thats why its soo small...

Ok, so I want to get a sub that will pound deep down low. I want the kinda of bass that travels hella far. I want something you would hear coming from a brand new H2 that belong's to a NBA allstar.

I want SPL with just a lil SQ.

I was thinking about a 12" w7, but if the RE is as good as what people say they are in these forums it must be the way to go.

So here a few questions...

Will my amp be even be able to power a RE MT 12"?

Will only having 28" of width to work with in the rear hatch cause a problem for the box design being too small?

Will the RE XXX 12" pound out low bass the same as a 12w7?

Should I just get a w7 since the box specs are smaller?

The XXX...

Are these the specs for a RE 12" MT or XXX?

The MT...

if youre worried about power, I think those xenon amps can be modded, I know the 600.1 can be modded to put out ~ 1800 IIRC

You are going to have to find the XXX used, because RE no longer makes that particular XXX, The 06 model is a completely different sub. 1200 watts is not near enough power for an MT so scratch that Idea. So out of your two options I suggest you go find a used or new 05 XXX from a third party seller.

XXX 12" or 15", i would say u need more power for an MT. I'm giving my MT 15" about 2200 or more watts.

Ok so I also have the 1200.1 amp and am now curious about this "modding" to juice it up.

ya know what.......I jsut thought about this...after alllll the hype on the new XXX's and RE line overall. I dont think I have really seen 1 good review on this forum for the new XXX. What is up with that...are there any? I know a few people got them, but I thought tons of people had them on back order. Ive only seen 1 or 2 installs with it...whats the deal...

they need 447659076505765605 watts to be powered correctly in a daily setup = retarded... not many people have 3500 watts to throw at a sub for daily listening

Ya, I knew kinda allready knew that the MT was out of my range of what my amp could output.

What is the difference between the new and the old version of the 12" RE XXX?

Do you guys think that the XXX is better for what I'm looking for when compared to a w7?

bamaboy - that is one hellova setup you have there. Have you heard the XXX's?

Where would I find out some info on modding this amp?

Is it just as simple as soldering on a mod chip onto a xbox's motherboard? I've had some pretty good experiance in modding boards...

Click it...

new xxx's are just iompractical as far as power needed and thier outrageous price...you can get better peformance out of 2 older xxx's for LESS than buyinga new xxx....seriously....the prices are relativly low on older xxx's so id go with onj eof those while they still makem, good luck...

I would suggest going to your local shop and having them pick and install everything for you.

Unless you want to stick around here, read a heck of a lot of info. Then choose equipment that fit's your needs.

Because it sounds like you are new to this, and the basis to your questions are kind of sketchy.
