fi ssd12 vs aa arsenal 12

[lithium 358]

using my kenwood excelon x10d - 600rms at 2ohms (1ohm stable but no power rating). which would be the better sub.

i listen to metal, rock, alternative rock. basicly nice accurate bass with some decent kick is the goal.

i have polk db 5.25 and 1000(1in tweets) up front and 6x9s in the rear. all off the the sony hu (cdx gt310)

the aa would be alittle overpowered and the fi could be run at 1ohm or 2ohm depending on vc options

budget it under $200 if anyone has another option that sould be considered.

Personally, I would be adding an amplifier for the front speakers before adding a sub was even considered...

^ add mid amp.... 4 sure.

but as far as subs go,

ummmm....

flip a coin... Fi & A.A. audio are the same company.....FYI.

so pick whatever looks best to you, cuz there gonna sound almost identical.

Both are good drivers, one can take more power, but the question is do you need the higher power handling?

getin a 12" AA arsenal. i wouldnt want to run my amp at 1ohm with out a power rating.

im gona start to save up for a new front stage. hopefull get that in before college or im not goin to have another chance.... maybe i can get a mid range driver and match it with my polk tweets and amp for a decent price. ill wait till i get the sub in and deside where to go from there. im really lacking in the mid bass-mid range. maybe some good sound deadening on the door would help.

ohwell i have no money to spare on this right now...
