the phoenix gold rsd is 500w.i loved mine but never heard 2 i only had one and i also blew it soi have 2 planet audio subs now. but it hits really good. My friend has a type r and he loves it but i honestly think that compared my car to his...the rsd his alot lower and god some what louder in the lower end than his type r. my rsd was in a 1.8cu box

koteman

so im going to go with phoenix gold but should i use 10s or 12s 10 require .3-.5 cubic ft sealed and 12's require .78-1.2 cubic ft sealed

rvpps2rocks

12's all the way. I think 1.8cu is ideal for one sub and that was stated from one the of the techs from PG.

the rsd's i have read only sound good in a big box. they need a lot of airspace.

i know i keep recommending these a lot lately but check out the Dayton reference HO 10's. they like small boxes and they sound really good.

Looking at the size of what you've glassed thus far, go for the subs with the smallest enclosure requirements possible. No way you're going to have more than .5' available on either side, likely a lot less, so find a set of 10s you like that will perform well with .3'. You might even want to consider going with 8" subs.

Tcguy85

i see a good .5-.75 cubic feet per side. they don't look THAT small.

going back and looking at the pics.... they do actually look pretty big.

Are we forgetting the Kicker CVR's or is it just me that likes those? They run about $65 a peice around here and put out one good bang for your buck. Type-R's, as you noted already, are also some good performers i've had experience with.

koteman

yeah i thought about the kick cvr's but they have less rms than pg rds 10's and the type rs are more money like 190 a pair on ebay the rds are 130 a pair on ebay and cvrs are 130 a pair on ebay so i think rds and probably 10's same rms as 12's but needs less space and cheaper

koteman

2 4 ohm dvc rds 10's at 500 rms each wired to 1 ohm do u think the crunch

koteman

3rd layer of glass and trimmed and sanded

i thought about the CVR's but i purposely left them out because they no sound quality. the PG's are a solid choice. Jason, the HO's do not fit his budget....only the Quattro's, otherwise i would have recommended the HO's.

Tcguy85

yes it would be $250 for a pair of the Dayton HO tens. a little to much i guess.

koteman

so is the crunch mono channel 1000 watt at 1 ohm a/b amp a good amp to buy

Tcguy85

it's not a bad amp.

koteman

so should i order the crunch 1000 watt amp and 2 10' rds subs will that all work together right and would i need a 4 or 8 gauge wire kit.

Tcguy85

4 gauge on the wire.

koteman

thx but to you think that those subs and amp is a good chose

Tcguy85

i have never used either, but i have read plenty on the rsd 12's. i haven't heard much on the crunch amps. as long as the amp puts out rated power thats what matters most when it comes to amps.

exige

im gonna take a look at some more amps.

its best to avoid brands such as PA, crunch, lanzar, lightning audio, pyle, pyramid, etc.

koteman

ok thx just tell me what u find
