kenwood tornado subs vs????

http://a.im.craigslist.org/pz/SR/g0BipNUnKfE3hoSl4mV6T90NmCmi.jpgI got a question I plan on using just one subwoofer on a 1000watt kenwood amp should I keep the kenwood subs(700watts max 4ohm each I plan on selling one of them) or should I get a single more powerful subwoofer like a 2ohm dvc sub or something??? I just want one good subwoofer to use in my truck

is your amp 1000 watts RMS or max?

i have never liked those subs.. or any kenwood subs to be honest with you..

no thats max I belive its 500 to 600 rms I got the subs for $80 but now I just want one GOOD sub to use

I think you probably have the KAC-7252 ( http://www.kenwoodusa.com/products/ListProduct.aspx?k1=2&k2=42&k3=155&pr=2015 )
In this case, it's 170Wx2 @ 4 ohms, and 250Wx2 @4 ohms.
edit:
It could also be the KAC-8152D. If this is it, it's 300Wx1 @ 4 ohms, and 550x1 @ 2ohms.

check out resonant engineering's SE, JL W3v2, Alpine type R, elemental designs OV series, Image Dynamics IDmax, etc etc theres a bunch of great subs that woudl fit the bill.

what kinda budget are you workin with, how much space, ported or sealed preferance, etc...

I forgot about that ill give up about 180 for one Im thinking about using subtomix box im not sure on the size but no more then 1.0 or 1.5 cubic feet I plan on siting it on the floor along with my amp http://www.subtoms.com/ what do you guys think of the rockford fosgate subs hx2's???

Your sub looks to be either KFC-2505 or KFC-2525DVC.

Is it a 10" sub?

I've got two of the KFC-2525DVC's ($30 pawn) and I outperform every dual 12" setup I've come across, and all but one dual 15". Dual/triple 10" and single driver setups don't even compare to me. I've caused one person a bloody nose, another an epileptic seizure, and numerous breathing problems.

They are awesome subs, in my humble experience.

Jet lee you must be a complete idot. You didn't give anyone nosebleeds, Breathing problems, or what the hell ever else with 2 damn Kenwood 12's. Original poster If that amp puts out max power at 4 ohms get an SX from www.reaudio.com. If it does at 2 ohms get an SE.

Yeah, you can tell all that from a computer screen, huh?

Who said 12's?

Did you even look up the speaker?

Drive your ass down here and sit in my car, or shut the fuck up.

Yes the amp puts out max power at 4ohms bridge so that would mean I have to use a 4 ohm sub???? would a 2 ohm work better???
what are those subs rated at from re??? and the sub that i got is a 12in 4ohm sub

Hell come sit in my truck will make you breath harder and voice distort like hell but like bumpin said a nosebleed maybe but an epilectic seizure thats pushin the limit there as far as storys go. Not calling you a liar since you can apparantly collapse your lungs with a stereo, at least you didnt say "yeah i can blow out windows" ive seen that so many times from newbs.

Where is "down here" Watch I'll probably go to some hick ass town in the middle of West by god Virginia where everyone's running ghey sony xplods and kenwoods. Let me guess you got some 60hz wonders. HOLY SHIT YOU MIGHT BE HITTING A 135!!!!!! That's SOOOOOO LOUD!!!!!!!! Damn. Dude not to sound like a dick, but I'd probably laugh at your setup. You have to realize I drive around for about an hour and a half everyday blaring two ported 18's and 3000 watts. Not much out there can impress me. Single SX 12's, single SX 15's, Avalanche 15, two sealed Avalanche 15's, 2 ported SE 15's all setups around here that are not impressive to me and not the least bit loud, except for the 2 se's and sx15, which would both DEMOLISH your kenwoods. Sorry talk to me when you running something that can get loud.

To be honest JBL subs are the best for value and sound..... but i love Kenwood head units... cant beat them :)

I'm not a big fan of Kenwood HU's, even though I'm running one and No JBL's are not the best value to sound. Gti 15's are 700 MSRP, better can be had for cheaper, JBL does however make some good products. I love their amps.

Erm JBL subs are the best end of ok?:grinyes:

"Down here" is Springdale, Arkansas.

I don't give two shits what you run. You WOULD be surprised at these 2 10's and 1000 watts. Until you've heard it, don't trash it. You don't see me doggin' on your setup. Sure, I don't like it, but it's your taste.

Call me a liar about the seizure, I don't give a fuck, but if someone were to come by, I could get ahold of the guy.

Nosebleed? Has been me, a couple times, butI disregard that as I'm prone to nosebleeds as is. But I can get ahold of the chick if anyone cares to stop by.

Breathing problems. Just sit in it.

Bumpin, I've heard a TON of dual 12, dual 15 setups, whatnot, that weren't shit. I'm not one of those guys that buys whatever pre-made box cause the stereo says it works good. I'm not one of those that makes a fiberglass box so it's "pretty." I've got a custom, fully reinforced(I'm surprised if anything in there vibrates), purpose built box.

No, I can't blow out windows, and won't claim to. That's kinda far off.

Take what you will, believe me or don't. I don't care to trash up this dudes thread anymore.

[ontopic]Keep the Kenwoods.
