your opinion on this sub

Its a 10" 800W max JVC sub.
http://www.jvccaraudio.co.nz/Factsheets/0405/Subwoofers/CS-WG1000/CS-WG
1000.html

I was thinking about getting 2 of them since i can get the for $50CDN a piece brand new. Do you think i should?

Also if i were to buy an amp for them would i have to buy an amp that can handle 1600W max? or do i go by the RMS rating. I am really confused about that

Thank in advance.

Re: your opinion on this sub

Well if thats your budget...go for it. You asked what we think of the sub, well I think it's garbage but it just may suit your needs fine. An there is no such thing as MAX power, go by RMS.

i agree if thats your budget thats fine, but if you have more money to spend then do it. you get what you pay for and jvc subs suck. i would go with a reputable company like kicker, mtx, eclipse and so on. names that have nice stuff thats why they cost alot more.

Re: your opinion on this sub

Ever thought of a single 15, im going to assume that thats about equal to less then 100US. Spend a little more for a set of good 12's or a good single 15 that can be anywhere from 120+ depending on where you look for the sub. You can get a good amp and sub for about 300 off ebay thats what my friend just spent on a profile amp and a 15" alpine. Hits pretty damn hard for how much he paid for it.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.

Re: your opinion on this sub

like everyone is saying you do get what you pay for
that system may last a while but its not really good
but it all depends on what you are going for and how much to spend

Re: your opinion on this sub

1st of all, dont buy from ikessound.

2nd of all, for that price pick up a pair of RE audio RE 8's.

3rd of all, look at SoundSplinters RL-i 10. One should do nicely.

and last but not least, a soloX 15 and 1200.1 is way out of your price range, not mentioning you could get much better for the money.

Re: your opinion on this sub

Well lower end rockford subs arent exactly known for being very good... Have you considered a Pioneer 12" sub from future shop? http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0060201&catid=

I have 2 of the older model of this sub and they have done me quite well. I have had them over a year now and use a Alpine MRP-M350 to power them and they sound pretty good, plus they can really pound if that is all you are looking for.

They seem to be of pretty good quality, they are supposed to be fairly durable and by how they have lasted so far I can believe it.

IMO this sub is about the best you can get for this amount of money.
