Whats your budget?

i just got one of the slimmest subs out there its a SI BM MKIII (stereointegrity.com) its a 12" sub thats about 3.5" deep and needs .5 cuft of airspace and sounds AMAZING. its just that it costs 255 each :eek: and i want another :(

That's cheaper than the Alpine 10" :lol:

But it also doesn't have the power rating...

yea saw that after i posted. bet its alot cleaner. you cant hear the sub until it bottoms out and two of these are awesome. im trying to get funds for another one to add to the one i have. are the alpines DVC?

$$$ is an issue. Mine were about $250 each plus fiberglassing the rear panel for a nice custom fit.

Money really isn't an issue... It's just finding something good quality.
My single Alpine Type-S surprises the hell out of people... Nobody believes I have a single 10" :dunno:
They always think it's at least a 12 or 15, or two 10s.

The Alpine is SVC... But the amp I'm looking at puts out 600W RMS at 2 and 4 ohms...

I'm running everything off of this: JL Audio HD600/4 Amplifier. 14 speakers total. 4 tweets, 4 8, mids, 2 10" subs, 4 6" speakers. I have enough power to rock out to the extreme. Don't know what you are after, but there are alot of good suggestions here.

You might be under powering those subs :eek:
That's a lot of speakers for a 600W RMS amp! :lol:

I'm not saying there's no good suggestions...

But I need something at LEAST 350W RMS capable (preferably 600W if I upgrade my amp)

I don't want to upgrade to a 12" if I don't have to... I want to keep things small.

If I could find an 8" that can perform the same as my 10" I'd be happy...
I also don't want to lose any sound quality :ohnoes:
