I would look into powerbass speakers, the ones I've heard should keep up and stay crystal clear! RE also makes some of the best sounding speakers i've heard.

Oh sorry for arguing with people calling me and my bro idiots, that was so out of line on my part defending yourself is against forum rules of course!

What does this beastly amp truly put out? My bro has one and that thing blows subs like nobodys business, ones rated for 4000+ watts in the right box, not being turned up too much or anything. There is no way it's only 2000 watts! Help please!

Dang, well...squares are still useless...

Shouldn't be clipping, we would have heard that. One of the voice coils will burn up, always. Unless it's an ascendant, the Havoc 15 and Mayhem 15 those are the only ones that survived.

We know how to treat a sub, if we hear distortion or anything we turn it down and never to there again, the bass is on 0, we only turn the volume to a max of 25 out of 35 and never for a very long time, we aren't idiots. I forgot to mention it is modded for comps. So that may boost the power a little but it shouldn't be that drastic

One thing square subs are good for! It's easier to find the cone area! If I'm not mistaken...which I very easily could be but length by width should be easier

Try returning it, mistakes happen they probably just sent the wrong one

Go RE XXX 6.5s or Powerbass, heard both, they sound great!

Nevermind stupid me didn't read good, you need not alot of mounting depth....the old REs were crazy good, best 8's you described in my opinion

Looked into AA Assassin 8's or the soundsplinter 8's? Used to have four old RE 8's and the Assassin blew them out of the water!

Make sure to say how it works! I'm eager to see how the new btls are!

I don't have a car yet being 15, but I still love audio, I have a 330rms amp in my room, yes, it's wimpy, but I'll save the big stuff for my car, any recommendations for a 12 that will work on that wattage in a small ported box?

I would look into if that's a real 2000x my brother ha one and it's way bigger, and has more internals, yours could be newer I guess, if it is real, 700 is usually the price I see for one

Mine seems so inadequate compared to everyone elses, but I've spent maybe 60 bucks for it all, I'm good with money, I have: Coby 5.1 surround, 300watts+sub, a Quasar amp thing, puts out 375watts, a Jensen jsw12, two Aiwa tower speakers, each with two tweets and a 6.5, and last but not least, a Polk PSW10. All of it's hooked up together and it sounds good for being what it is.

Why is every dissing on AQ? They are amazing for the price, at least SPL wise, haven't heard any on music just burps, I know a guy with all AQ, 8800 watts, two of AQs best 15s in a wall, he hit 155 consistently at every comp I saw him at. Earned my respect

@ulrisa I've tried that, but all the people who are close enough to run or ride to have their jobs taken by people who got laid off or something, they do need the job more than me though oh well

New sub for in room, as far as car goes, I'm thinking BTL, Mayhem, DC level 5, just one 15 on 2500-3000watts. Any recommendations out of those three? Or maybe one I haven't heard of even?

Ha, thanks, sweet setup dude, I've tried the odd jobs before, but I live in a neighborhood where everyone does everything themselves...I do mow the lawn for my parents though!

I've heard both, the Rockford T2 is solid, but the Havoc 15 my bro had was superb, great SQ, and crazy loud, he went to comps with it and was hitting 144s with it when it was on a measly 800watts, he put it up to 3000, and it took it easy, never got it metered on that wattage though, moved up to a Mayhem 15 which is by far the best sub in the world in my opinion.

Sweet action! If I have the cash in time I will hop on that!

Where is that at? The website? 75 would be great, any way to make that much in a week though?

That's definitley a choice, I've always been a fan of Fi and Ascendant. The only con is the price, may take me a while to save up, I need to get a job, haha

I have a 300watt surround system with 5 speakers, plus 4 towers on 50watts each, I got speakers taken care of.As far as subs go I have a Polk psw10 and the 12 I'm running now is alright, but nowhere near great, a jensen jsw124, it's on the verge of blowing on that amp, so I want to upgrade it to something bassier. So my goal for now is as much bass as possible with this sub, but not a huge amount of distortion.
