Sub for GF

[jb4153 10+ year member]

I was going to give my girlfriend one of my 12w0's but I am selling them instead and looking to get her a single 10" woofer. I don't want to spend more than $100 on the sub because I'm also getting her an amp and making her a box and everything too. Her birthday is in a week and these were the subs I was looking at...

OZ Vector SQ Series

Alpine Type-R

Image Dynamics ID V.3

Resonant Engineering RE10

Infinity Reference

Diamond Audio CM3

Kicker CompVR

Memphis Power Reference or Mclass

It will be powered by a Directed Audio 350d

150x1 @ 4ohms

250x1 @ 2ohms

Opinions and any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

my bad didnt see the amp, look into some power bass stuff it keeps up with alpine type r's and the kicker comp vrs and there cheaper as well.

im not set on buying that amp...its just at a really good price and comes with warranty. im open to suggestions for amps too but i'd like to get something somewhat mainstream for her.

and theres alot of guys on here that can get them cheap let me know if you like them and I can have one of the guys send you a message. I tried them out the b series 2 12's dual 4's and I got them cheap and they sounded really good.

why get an RE10 when you can get a RE12?

With The new series type r's coming out with big changes I would get an Old type r, which is the one I assume you were talking about. The older ones are going to be getting on godly cheap. Already a surplus of em //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif. So If i were you I'd prolly find a 12" shipped for like 80 bucks. Also if you're looking at Kicker subs check out ubid.com. I dont know if you guys know of it, but its kinda like ebay. I found out a lil while ago that they are an authorized kicker dealer. Some great kicker deals there.

cm3 out of the ones listed

if you are going to get a powerbass get the evolution series. You can get them for about 80 or 90 bucks and they really arent that bad
