New subwoofer suggestions
Hey all,
Well fI want a new system and I am looking for a subwoofer and maybe some people here can offer some suggestions.
I mostly listen to dance but also listen to some rap. I was thinking of getting some 10" instead of 12". I have always had 12" and am not really sure if this is a right decision. I like the fast punchy bass. My last sub was a 12" Kicker L5 and it would hit hard but it was too big for my new Mazda 3. I am looking for something that will get loud but also be accurate.
So far I am thinking of:
- JL W6 or W7. Not sure which which one would be better and never heard them in real life.
- Image Dynamics IDMax. I have always loved these sub but never heard it in real life.
- ED Subwoofers. This seems to be a new company but people praise them. I am not sure which subwoofer I would get but their website is Elemental Designs and people said Image Dynamics make them but I am not sure
Is 10" the right size to go with? I was also thinking of getting 2 subs in a sealed box and I need to have truck space with this car as with my last car, I had none.
Please keep note that I would rather spend less money then getting all top of the line equipment but I will spend the extra money if it is worth it.
Thats all I can think of right now. I want to stay away from Alpine, Pioneer, Sony, Legacy and other cheaper brand names.
Thanks all

Hey,
I don't want the cheapest subs out there at all. I suggested 3 subs that are all over $400 per sub probably and your showing me a $50 sub. Thanks but what I think I ment to say was. Instead of spending $1000 a woofer on a W7 I would rather spend $500 on a IDMax for similar perfoamnce.
ANy other suggestions?

Umm I guess I just have to go around and listen to as many things as possible?
Is there certain subs I should be going with? One person on another forum is recommending a JL W3 as it has lots of kick.
I was maybe thinking of 4 10" Elemental Designs one of their own amps.
Would that be good?
