RE subs

Does RE sell any subs that will work well with my Power Acoustik LT1920/2 which puts out 420 watts x 2 @ 2 ohms?

You could probably throw a pair of SE's on that and itll sound good.

I honestly wouldn't bother with SE's if you were only going to push them with ~200w each....there are more logical subs for that power range. That and you can't wire a pair of SE's to 2ohm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

However, a single SE would work nicely off that power. And since they are D4's, you can wire it to 2ohm.

hmm...no u need just the base RE's...id get a new amp, if ur gettin RE subs they deserve to get enough juice it will be worth it.

Se series would take that but honestly you should consider a better amp in the future... right now I am throwing 700+ a piece at my se's and they love it,,,

Sry I edited it so late. My comp wanted to mess up. The amp puts out 420 watts per channel.

When is JL going to introduce the 12W1's? I have lookin around the city and I cant find anybody that has them.

400 watts to a SE should sound fine!

They are out. I was at my local dealer yesterday and they had some. Didn't have any hooked up yet (waiting till they clear out all the W0's), but they did receive an order in already.

I was thinking about either getting 2 RE subs, 4 12W1's, or 2 10" Kicker L5's. I think I might go with the 4 W1's because I really like the way JL subs sound. I wish there was a website that sold W1's. I havent found one yet. Does anybody else have any recommendations of subs i should get? BTW...how much do SE's run for?

I would go with 1 SE or 2 RE's. Or you can go ahead and get two SE's and just save the other one until you get a stouter amp, that way you are ahead of the game.

BTW...how much do SE's run for?

Approximate pricing is: SE10- $149, SE12- $169, SE15- $199

However, you will need to verify with RE for final pricing info.

I was also thinking about Elemental Designs. How does everybody rate there subs? I was thinking of getting 2 15's for I THINK 135 a peice. The price appeals to me and it should work well with my amp.

No personal experience. But so far they are getting pretty good reviews.

Check out the forums at http://www.icixsound.com/vb/, should be quite a few reviews there for ya to check out.

I am considering Elemental designs. But I wonder if I can run 4 RE RE's off of that amp. That amp should be able to puch them. We need to make a sticky on the prices of RE products. But how much do the base line RE's run?
