single SPL 12

[RKPsk8er 10+ year member]

I'm lookin at my options. I am really thinkin about an AQ HDC3 but I want to know what else is out there that is similar or better. I will be running it off a rf t20001bd so around 2500ish rms.

I hear alot about fi BTLs. Are these nice SPL subs?

Yes they are. The best spl sub for the buck IMO is the mach 5 spl 12

2nd on the mach5... There was a big test/review on it a few weeks back. Easily hangs with the big names, and much less $

and that 2000.1 WILL NOT get 2500 RMS

and read around on the BTL's... i have read a ton on them.. haven't heard one negative review... I just can't get an idea of if its a street beater, or an SPL beast

I'm hoping the second part of the test will be done soon. I believe Stratus mentioned something about sending 5kw to an SPL-12.

im going to be running 2 cascade designs 15"s..they handle a shit ton of power daily. they have 12"s as well..

hope mines gets loud

AQ will do fine off 2k. The BTL probably would want more. Not familair with the SPL12, but MACH5 makes excellent products for the $$$. All 3 would get very loud in the right enclosure and enough power to push them...

Why do you say that? That power is 100wrms or so above average 2ohm power. @ 1ohm they can do up to 29??. 2500 is almost a guaruntee for it.

yeah I've read several birthsheets for the RF t20001bd. a lot of people are getting more than 2500 rms with it.

someone said the mach 5 audio's sound good, but the AQ's are cheaper so idk

 

[RKPsk8er 10+ year member]

also, I said SPL 12's but I will be listening to it daily so something somewhat musical would be good

Mach5 = //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Do it.

louder than AQ's? worth the price difference?
