RE audio

In a blazer?

You know what hz that was at? Windows up, doors shut, right?

I did a 141.2 at 35hz in my teg off 1kw with one 15. You should have some more left in that setup.

Lots of good amps out there for the money. My new bang for the buck pick is the MB Quart DSC2000.1D. It does the 2kw it says it does and does not break the bank. I actually installed one in my friends blazer and I have one of my own for my teg that I will throw in over the summer.

if I remember right it was at around 49hz or so legal with the doors shut and windows up. then again I was installing a radio while they were testing his car.


And to any other RE apologists, this is the very essence of why no one uses their stuff in the SPL lanes. the Entry level DD subs can give them a solid run at a fraction of the price.

Then you factor in the cost of an SX, XXX, or MT and I garuntee I can go buy a Memphis mojo (which costs less than all of those), or an Incriminator Death Penalty, or a DD9512, or a Rocford T2, and own you on any mic in any position.

I got my blown XXX 12 for $100 and spent $250 total getting it reconed to an 18''. It really isn't an SPL sub.

The 141.2 was with a first gen RE SE, reconed with a XXX coil.

136.8 is not too hot at all. I ain't ragging on you, I just know you have a lot more left out of that system.

You saying a RF t2, 9512, mojo and DP all blow away sx, xxx, and Mts is a very relative statement.

Some guy at one of your meet and greets had a 15'' mojo, ported off 1.5kw, in his scion tc. one of your installs. I put up a solid 1db more than him, at a lower hz, with a single RE SE 12, on less than 600rms. (In my integra)

Can you argue with that one?

I am not trying to push any buttons, I just want to debate with you.

[BanginBlazer]

u want to debate with me welll...... since i am only pushing like 800 rms total on 8 guage wire that i bought for 20 dollars idk how good it is but im sure ur 141 is decent but i am getting rid of my system i want a new system plus these are like one of the lowest dds out here i dont have a single bit of sound deadner and i have like 2 - 3 door speakers blown no highs or amp.. so a 136 is good.. i didnt evn think it was gonna be that loud i did a 139.1 on an outlaw at 52 hz .. my amp is like busted but it was a budget system and ur car is smaller than mine

That was more directed towards Scott.

What amp did you have on them? What size box you running? Sealed? Ported?

[BanginBlazer]

quantum audio 1800 watts ported and a tline box tuned to 36 hz

It really isn't that relative of a statement. If I took a sub, and put it in a properly built and tuned box with a goal of achieving a high spl. I know for a fact i wouldn't be picking anything from RE's lineup. in fact the only sub I might consider even remotely is the early 2000's MT and even then, it would be way way way down the list. Quite frankly when Adire went out of business is the day RE became completely irrelevant. I don't care who is makeing them now, or who is now running the company it's not the same quality product.

As for the car you mentioned, I know that car (it was done before I was brought down to Ga to work here) and you aren't proving me wrong in my statement. Quite frankly I don't want to get into any further, b/c I wasn't the employed here when it was built.

Also, who ever it was that said Sundown is a SQPL sub, you couldn't be more wrong. There is absoluyely nothing high quality or even sound quality related about Sundown. They are a lowpriced, mid level internet brand, much like a litany of other companies out there.

See I don't care about SPL, DD's can get as loud as they want but they sound like shit. And T2's sound even worse. So do you have a reccomendation for a better mix of SQ/SPL for 250? That's what I will be spending on the SX. I'm not being a smartass, I just think DD sounds like diarrhea. The Memphis would be the only sub I would consider on that list.

If you didnt like the way DD's sounded, they must have been in the wrong box or not tuned properly. Come by and talk to me, we've got some great options that sound good as well as beat.

Well it must be Will's fault then....


It's Brad Colin, I've been wanting to come by and look at some Memphis stuff when I have the money.

Hey man,

you didnt like the way Wills car sounds? huh... Yeah man, which Memphis you like? they've changed part numbers but still have the same basic lineup. You need to come see the new place anyway.

Will's car gets too fucking loud. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it, but imo once you get to that point it sounds shitty. Believe me I went through this with him for hours lol. I don't know what model I want, I forgot what setup my buddy had but it was perfect for me. Maybe there's a DD sub that's right for me, idk. I'll come discuss it with you some time.

I am going to buck the "norm" here, and suggest an Arc Audio ARC12. Great mix of SQ and SPL....definatley weighted to the SQ side of things though.
