rockford fosgate power ???

[outlawtorn86]

im planning on purchasing those rockford power subs. the 10 inchers my cuzin got em he says theyre awesome. but if i get two of them, how good of an amp do i need? i really dont know much about the peak rms measurements or any of that, i just wanna get the full power out of my subs. thanks in advance guys

[GSteg]

IMO, at least 700 to do them real justice. find an amp that does about 1400@2ohm.

[outlawtorn86]

can u give me an example of an amp, and how much one would cost? or whould i need 2 amps ??thanks for ur help man

[GSteg]

are you going sealed or ported?

[GSteg]

have you looked into any other brands? i can list lots of subs that will get just as loud and sound better. how much are you gonna spend on each 10"?

[outlawtorn86]

lol im guessing by sealed u mean the subs in a box? if thats what u mean then yes

my cuzin told me the rockford powers are top of the line. but yeah theyre crazy expensive. im thinkin about 90-120 bucks for each 10 incher... anything worth looking into? somethin like JL audio, btw whabout those sony's... are they any good?

[GSteg]

you'll want the sub in a box. lol. ported is where there is a big vent. sealed has no vents at all. don't know how to explain it.

MTX-81000D (or newer one)
Rockford Fosgate BD1500

how much can you spend on the amp?

power HX2's are about $250 at least (if its no on sale, its over 350). the 90-120 are the HE/HE2. IMO not worth it. don't go sony. trust me on this one

[outlawtorn86]

so what do you suggest for a 120 dollar sub?

im thinkin nothin over 250 for the amp. i mean money is not a problem. i work for 200 a week, so eh

elemental designs k-series (www.edesignaudio.com)
had the older one and loved it. outperformed many subs for the price.



for an amp...i'll look for it later after i'm done studying. lol

I would suggest some JL Audio W6 12's. Major bang for your buck, plus it doesn't take as much power to push them.

[outlawtorn86]

cant have 12's. my cuzin gave me his old box for 2 10's and i just dont feel like buyin another box. u kno, savin money. but how bout like alpine type-s or type-R, the S go fo 120, R go for 200, are these worth it? im thinkin of spendin about 200 for an amp and ~250-300 for 2 subs. is that pointless or can be done>?

[AirAllen01]

I've heard alot of good things about the Type R's, haven't heard anything about the Type-S. If you're willing to spend that much, then you should look into Memphis. They have excellent subs, highs, and amps....with great quality sound and they're a quality product. Check out www.Memphiscaraudio.com and search for the nearest dealer. Find the 10" HPO's, these are good subs.

hey go to ikesound.com an they have typr r subs for like 130 ish
