Look at the JBL GTO804. Get a pair.

Anything image dynamics will sound very nice on a budget.

I dont have an amp or enclosure yet so I could really go w/ anything. I was thinking a 12". I was looking at the alpine R series but I wasn't sure if I 'd be sacrificing a good bit of SQ and cash for volumes I'd rarely use. Space isn't much of an issue as I have a big trunk that I dont use a ton.

If you don't mind sacfrificing trunk space, A Dayton HF15 might be a good choice.

that look pretty good how would it compare to a 12" like a 12" alpine R series or some other 12 " because space isn't really an issue.

Close to the $100 margin, The American Bass TNT is a great sub like a ten

If you want an all-in-one solution and are leaning more towards SQ, Alpine's prefab 8" Type R is worth looking at. It's less than your 200 dollar point, but not by much. Just consider you're getting a tuned box with that sub and it should put out some pretty decent sound.

I was in a similar situation as yours and have been trying to rack up my build 100 bucks at a time (pretty much setting that as my max for anything). Just keep your eyes on the classifieds and your local CL for some pretty sweet deals.

type r is a sql sub?

 

[neo_styles 10+ year member]

He's looking at SQ not SQL and that 8" Type R actually puts out pretty decent bass. It's not gonna be close to the standards of, say, an IDQ or Morel, but it's good for the budget.

Whats SQL stand for ?
