Need help choosing a subwoofer

[anelson2390 0]

So basically I am trying to figure out which subwoofers would be best for me.

Background info:

Vehicle: 2000 suburban (space is really no issue for me)

Amps: 2 planet audio ap1000d's (rated for 650 but i believe put out well over 800 watts)

Plans: currently im running 4 12'' cvrs and im ready to upgrade so i want to run 2 18's , I plan to get dual 2 ohmn coils so i can wire at 1ohmn with one sub per amp, this will be a daily pounder, and i will be pushing everything hard, I have the big 3 and a 220 amp iraggi alt, i have the best knu koncepts 0ga wire, and all i need to beef up my electrical is a second battery.

I am choosing from Fi subs and my gut is telling me that the Fi Bl is the one for me, so my question is to you guys which sub is best for me? the bl? the q? or the ssd? also as for budget i would like to keep it under 400 per sub

You essentially answered your own question, the SSD would be a fantastic option however the BL will be louder than any of the options you listed.

if your budget is $400 a sub then i think 2 18" BL's would be perfect. But it really all depends on what your looking for out of your new subs. Of course the BL's will sound alot better then those crvs do and im sure they will get louder as well. I think your on the right track

Com'on man The BL's obviously. But I would upgrade amps.

Why not go with for new 12's? Gonna get more cone area that way & being your budget, you can have a kickass setup!

You really are special aren't you.....

4 12"s is 452^2 of cone

2 18"s is 508^2 of cone

I would do two of these, and bump up the power later.

SSA XCON 18"s.

Two eighteens have more cone area.

Edit: beat me to it^

Sounds like someone got a little butt hurt because they can't read...

[bassahaulic 155]

OP, sorry about the drama. I hope my suggestion helps.

[Julian 641]

Agreed, Are those amps strapable? If so you should get D2's so you can wire to 2 ohms and make it easier on yourself!

You all get a vacation if you keep this up. If you want to argue, make an Off Topic thread, or take it to PM's.

OP: If you want me to clean your thread up, just say the word.

Can we please chill on the name calling, this is a civil and helpful site. I hope that never changes.

[S.DeYoung 968]

Why are you stuck on using Fi?

Agreed & I apologize .. Other than what Bass Mentioned, could check out DC Audio XL or LVL5's! Just something to throw out there... Unsure of pricing on those 2 subs...

I would agree either:

2 18" BL's or SSA Xcons

Eventually I would look at upgrading amps, something closer to 2000 watts.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the replies and the butthurt jokes, gotta love those And I will definitely be upgrading amps, i have a buddy whos setup would be perfect for the amps and ill probably eventually sell them to him but as of right now, I wanna get my main powerline wire upgraded and get an extra battery first to help with the damn light flashing lol
