[QUOTE="nate2587, post: 2791529, member: 575060"] *update* alrighty so this weekend i did a partial install only because i was sick of not having bass in my car the box is 2.75^3ft tuned to 33 hz. So far everything sounds amazing ............... now for the real review lol "SQ" the sub actually had very good SQ on it i listen mostly to Hard Rock and metal and let me tell you it is very clean compared to my 12" RE sx's they put the Sx's to shame SQ IMO The dual bass drums from slipknot really rocked and if anyone has ever heard joey from slipknot you would understand that he has some fast feet. but the Alpha kept up with him [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] "spl" wise it was pretty decent overall it didnt get louder than my 2 Sx's but in the alphas defense it was [B]2 RE sx's[/B] vs the 1 alpha. and they where also running on a 20.1 i have 1 alpha on 1 2200.1 as of right now. so when i get that all hooked up add the second amp and sub in there we should be good to go [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] "low end" now my box that i plan on running is going to be 38hz and this temp box that i am using tuned to 33 hz. the low end in my opinion could have been a little bit better i was impressed by it and the sub really got moving on it i would say that the RE sx's overpowered the alphas in the low end part. i threw in some 3-6 to mess around with it a bit and for the sub only have 11mm of xmax the excursion on it was pretty well. handled the low notes w/o any problems what so ever. i now considering that the sub has a relatively high FS on it i think that it might preform better in a higher tuned box "the look" as you all have seen so far the alpha has a pretty badass look on it nice beefy motor structure. its got a condom over the mags if u want to invert subs :P the logo isnt the prettiest thing ive ever seen but as stated before they are fixing it and the new ones should look sexi [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] the chrome basket has a nice touch to it and the woven tinsels are also nice. we all know how much of a pain in the *** that **** tinsel slap is unfortunately i do not have any pics of the install because it looks nasty as all hell "power handling" now i had the sub on a 2200.1 which roughly im gonna take an educated guess and say that about 1750-1800 was going to the sub and it took it like a beast. no problems with overheating or anything stayed pretty cool during the 2 hours of testing. i think that this sub really preformed well with 2k watts going to it and probably could have taken more. also the sub has a very sturdy structure to it and has some mad resistance on the coils. out of my RE sx's, Massive DMX 12, Fi SSD, and Blueprint 1003 i would say that this sub has the best "resistance" for lack of better words (pushing down on the cone) well thats all i got as of right now so if i have any more thoughts i will edit the post [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] and i will post another review once i get the 2nd set of subs and amps in. we might be able to fix the SPL problem and the low end problem in the next post [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
