So my birthday is coming up...

And I'm going to spend around 400$ on myself for my birthday... I was thinking of getting 2 10w6v2's from a friend thats selling them for around that price.... Or I see that Crutchfield has the buy one get one free for the Boston G5's.

What would you guys recommend for some nice SQ?

I want something that can handle double bass with ease (NOT like my Type R), but still get considerably loud. I've never heard the G5's but I have heard good things.

What do you guys recommend for me?

BTW I'm going sealed..

G5's ftw!! Got 2 of them myself. I think they would fit the bill perfect for what your looking for.

I don't know how well either of those will do off 250 each....Is it possible to sell the amp and use part of the money you're setting aside for your subs towards a new amp?

 

[wu501 10+ year member]

oops..didnt read that you only had 500 watts... not enough power.

Eh, I don't think I want to go with more power then my 500/1 because I haven't upgraded my electrical, and I don't plan on it. My choice of sub(s) will be based on this amp...

I've already heard 2 10w6v2's in my car and I loved it, in my opinion they had enough power for me to be happy with them...

Maybe I should go with 1 12w6v2 or 1 G5? I think an FI Q would require too much power for this amp...

I have two 10'' SSA ICONS off 500 each and it's plenty for them. Have you thought about looking into (1) 12'' Icon sealed?

 

[wu501 10+ year member]

1 G5 would be perfect. I give each of mine about 500 watts and its just the right amount of power.

They sound d@mn good, I mean d@mn good. Definitely won't dissapoint you in sq. They are out of stock until early next month, but I'm almost positive I've seen used ones on here for sale.
