sony or power acoustics sub?

[Marc_01]

I got a sony 12 (800max, 200rms) for xmas thinking they were durable. Now doing some reading on here I just don't know. So I was looking around for subs that are around the same price and I came across the Power Acoustic BL 12 (600max, 300rms): http://www.poweracoustik.com/bl.htm

Im using a US Acoustics 300w rms and a sealed box. Which do you guys think would be better?

Neither. How much do you want to pay? The Adire Audio Shiva is only $125 shipped... http://www.adireaudio.com .

Some others to look into would be Image Dynamics IDQ's (http://www.imagedynamicsusa.com), Kicker Comp's (http://www.kicker.com), Orion XTR's (http://www.orioncaraudio.com), and Phoenix Gold Tantrum's (http://www.phoenixgold.com).

I was thinking around 100. Its just for my jeep, nothing real special. But I don't want a sub that is going to crap out in 6 months.

I'll check out those links. Thanks man.

Honestly man the sony's are good. I have two 12" sony's (silver ones) and they sound good and they get pretty loud. I havn't had any problems with um yet!

Ah yes, but have you heard any of the subs listed above? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif Be honest...

I guess i'll give my sony a try but its the older one that handles only 200w rms. The newer ones and the silver handle more 300 plus.

I should have done more research before i bought what I have. Hope it last a year and i'll be happy and it should being that i don't plan on trying to rock the world with it. If it blows, oh well, live and learn. thanks guys for the info!!

I'll give a little review and my two cents once i get my amp (us acoustics 2100) installed this week.
