hi, i just bought an a8002t audiobahn 1600w amp. I will be getting 2 of the AW1251t subwoofers and was wondering which box will makw them sound the best and loudest? Regular wooden box or a bandpass box? http://cgi.ebay.com/TWO-AUDIOBAHN-AW...QQcmdZViewItem

thanks

 

the car is a 4dr 99 civic

 

Bandpass will be louder and boomier, but not as "tight." For SQ I believe sealed is the way to go.

 

audio forum is that away --------->

 

depends more on you actually what kinda of bass do you like? do you like clean tight bass or do you like loud more of a boom bass, if you went with audiobahn then you probably dont care to much for sound quality! audiobahn is more for loudness not sound quality sorry!!! thats why they you such high amperage on the equiptment for the most part. Your best bet is to go with 10s in a honda civic that will give you more of a cleaner tighter bass 12s are two much in a civic that you will have to rattle proof you car so to speak. if you want pm me or email me at dspencer24@yahoo.com and i will tell you more and ill be more specific!!!

 

I love my audiobahn a2200hcq audiobahn amp. I have the aw1251t's in my car...I really don't like them. For being 400rms they suck. There a good deal if you just want bass and don't care about quality. The only reason I got them is because they were 2 12" for 72$ on ebay. The amp is an awesome choice but go get like 10" mtx thunders or something.

 

what do you guys think of infinity perfect 10's?

 

they have way better sound quality then most but they aernt as boomy if want something in between get a set of 10s mtx or the higher end fosgates you will not be dissapointed at all

 

yup, if you want some good bass, sealed or ported is the way to go. Don't just any box though, to get the full sound of a sub, it's better off in the long run to get a box built to the specs of the sub(s).

 

i was wondering is it ok to get some subwoofers that are more watts than the sub. for example: 1600 watt amp with 800 rms, and 2 12' subs that totals 2000 watts and 1000 rms. i jus didnt want to blow the subs and was wondering is this ok, or not?
