which sub and amp?

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

could soon be after a sub and amp. just wondering whats the best to go for? good value for money sorta thing. wanna 12" at least, maybe a 15" as i listen to deep bass with long notes.

i used to be well into ICE but its been about 3yrs since and i dont know whats what now lol!

Dont bother getting a 15" there isn't to much difference between 12 and 15, unless were talking really high power.

If your just wanting som nice handling, I could highly recommend a Apline subwoofer the X types or somthing along those lines.

Personally I use a SPLX 12" 1200W and its really nice

Look for somthing along the lines off 1000W + and an amplifier around 600/700W power.

Unless your super serious about having ground breaking ice, you wont need to spent over £150

What have you got in the car right now?

12" is more than enough (according to the ladies ).

Modern 12's hit hard (like 10's) and go low (like 15's) and work well in a moderate size enclosure.

Give us an insight to what you already have, what music you listen to, your budget and we can go from there .

Yeah as above tyhe 12's high both regions of what maxc 10's and low 15's can do.

If your wanting to push your 12, get a JBL, they last for donks

This is what I have at the moment...

Soon getting another Sub, and then a third amp for components

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

well, as u all know i got a uno turbo lol, with a cd player and standard front speakers lol!

but might be getting another car (206) as a daily driver and its got a sony headunit already. i got some mint jbl 6x9's from my ICE days already, so just want a sub (prob a 12") and a nice amp to power that and prob the 6x9s?

listen to dance/r&b/hip hop/gangsta **** and all that stuff. some hard house too and even a little bit of pop if im feeling gay.

Would sound great in a 206!

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

chris, i could be interested but i aint got the money at the mo with the uno restoration and 206 (maybe) purchase lol!

whats it like? loud? deep bass?

was just starting to look and didnt know one would come up for sale already lol!!!

Dunc

 

[chrisunoman]

Its pretty loud, not overly though, and the bass is very deep!

 

[darkcircuitUK]

I am sure Chris can wait a bit longer for you turbo. Sub has been in classified for months

 

[Chris0288]

maybe one of those JBL combos? 12" and amp for like £120 or something?

Ive got a VRX 600w sub and amp combo, it was cheap and it does the business, honestly it shakes my wee punto to bits, Im very impressed with it, got everything sounding amazing, really kicks and good quality sound too, with subs imo you dont need to spend ALOT.

 

[paulbfd]

A 206 can probably take 6.5" speakers in it's front door so you're laughing.

Bin the 6 x 9's, get some decent components in the front a 4 channel amp 2 running the fronts and 2 bridged doing the sub in the boot.

£200 for a good amp (JL Audio e4300 is £169 on Ebay, that's insanely cheap), £100 for the fronts, £150 for sub in a box, £50 on wiring, job done.

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

hmmm, not wanting to spend that much as i just want some ok tunes

my money goes into making the UT faster and keeping it on the road lol

Dunc

 

[paulbfd]

Sorry mate, I get a little carried away sometimes!

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

lol, no probs, used to have all that stuff, just kinda speed and power obsessed now! still wanna get a sub tho for my other car (hopefully). cant beat some tunes
