Recommend something cheap

[chrisoaf 10+ year member]

What would be the best thing to get if I am looking for something cheap. Right now all my stuff is broken and it still sounds decent, just not very loud. I have a 12" Alpine type r that has one voice coil blown. The amp I am not using I think is some old Jensen 100 watt x 2 amp. In my mustang this doesn't sound as bad as I thought it would. What wolud be my best bet? I'm looking at some of the Adire subs because they are pretty cheap. Are any of those cheapo deals on ebay where you get like 2 subs in a box for 150 worth it? I mean, I would still need a better amp but I have a few decent ones that just need work. Anyone have any ideas for what would work best for me right now? How loud would one Shiva be and how much power is best for it? Would it be better to get one of those now and get a second later rather than buying two cheap subs witha box on ebay for 150? As you can see I have a lot of questions I haven't really been looking at subs for quite a while. Thanks, hopefully that all made sense

PG titanium can be found on the net for about $150 for a pair of refurbished. They are great subs and are basically new. Other than that look at good used subs on this forum.

Good luck.

how do you know they are refurbished?

Well they had them on sounddomain refurbished a while ago. Usually they come with a certificate or something saying so

They said they were refurbished.

So far the best I can find is two 15" PG titaniums on ebay for 179 and 45 shipping. Ike's has the 12" ones for 100 a piece. I can barely fit a box for a single 12 in my trunk because of the height. I don't think I could fit 2 15s without a total custom job.

oh. i picked up a pair of 10s for 170 shipped and they said they were new. they seemed brand new out of the box too.

They probably were new. Refurbished isn't bad though, a lot of times it can be better because they are inspected a lot better. Just depends on the company.
