[QUOTE="MuNchiezzz, post: 8817732, member: 678168"] Im curious what car audio brands are trustworthy and have AMAZING PERFORMANCE... As a long time Basshead i was into the old school brands like Bazooka, Fosgate, MTX, Audiobaun, Phoenix Gold, and Crunch to name a few. But life happened and now getting back in the game I see some of the old brands are still around... but there's also alot of new players. I'm wondering how these new players stand against the veterans. I still see forums talking about JL Audio and websites recommending MTX and Kicker, little 300W-500W subs. I went down a rabbit hole and found stuff like American Bass Cresendo DC Audio Skar Audio Sundown Audio Those seem to mentioned here and there. But if I found these there has to be more right? THERE DEFINITELY WAS!!! I found some that I think are surely winners but I've not heard so I can only assume. Ill put some of my favorite finds below. How do these compare to the "popular" brands that's mentioned 9,000,000,000 times and why aren't some of these talked about more? AVATAR Avatar STU 1246 12" 3000W RMS 6000W Peak This not only looks beautiful but also nice specs B2 AUDIO B2 Audio Rage XL 12" 2000W RMS 8000W Peak B2 Audio Rampage 12" 3000W RMS 12000W Peak I see these on a couple sites but I would think they would be more popular. Nice amps as well, if they do the power as rated. Brutal Sounds Brutal Sounds Big Brute v3 12" 2500W RMS Brutal Sounds Mega Brute v1 15" 4000W RMS Brutal Sounds MegaBrute v2 15" 4000W RMS These guys, just by first impression, LOOK BRUTAL. Would you even have a car left after bumpin these? DEAD GAME Dead Game Huracan 12" 1500W RMS 3000W Peak I like these and I've heard these. Definitely need some more spotlight IMO. Now we are getting to my favorite finds.... Deaf Bonce Deaf Bonce Hannibal 12" 1000W RMS 2000W Peak Deaf Bonce Apocalypse Now I like what I see from Deaf Bonce. The Hannibal seems like a great entry level or budget sub for the new basshead coming into game. And the Apocalypse, there's so many different varieties for every single budget. When you get to the higher end Apocalypse subs, some seem just plain scary..... In a good way though. And the amps they make also seem GREAT. THE DS18 DS18 Hooligan 12" 2000W RMS 4000 Peak I might have started to get a lil excited when I saw this if you know what a mean. Its a beautiful site and with 2000W RMS and its crazy XMax, I'm sure watching this sub dance would make me dance with it. And again, the amps also look amazing. INCRIMINATOR AUDIO Incriminator Death Row 12" 1500W RMS Incriminator Death Penalty 12" 2000W RMS Incriminator Judge 12" 3000W RMS Incriminator Warden 12" 3500W RMS I don't know what it is exactly about this company, but I like them enough I feel like a criminal. (bad joke sorry haha). But being serious, I can't see anything not to love about any of these. Again. I have not heard these so I could be wrong, but I'm A fan. Now to my favorite I think. Or at least one of my favs. I don't know how I can like a sub so much without ever even hearing it play...I know its crazy. But if go all in and not think twice. And I'm fairly confident I'd be very happy. RESILIENT SOUNDS Resilient sounds Platinum 12 2000W RMS 4000 Peak They have a couple different subs which all seem pretty nice but I'm definitely stuck on the Platinum and for only around $500... Here's a few more I found that I think should be in conversation more. G2 Dynamics Gately Audio Ground Zero Massive Audio Memphis Audio Rockville Rouge Audio Surprise find....I had to save this one for last. Not because I think its THE BEST... but because I couldn't find much about it. AND IT LOOKS PLAIN ANGRY. Its just massive looking. Really hope it sounds as good as it looks Shok Industries Shok Industries Titan 12" 3000W RMS So who has experience with some of these? Am I way wrong and there is a reason other stuff is talked about and recommended more? Do old school brands really out perform these others. I need to know if any of my instincts on these are in the ballpark. Also is there a diamond in the rough you have found. What's your hidden gem? [/QUOTE]
