Im looking to set up a system right now and need guidance picking a sub(s). I listen to rap / techno, like the deep bass, sound quality, and a cheaper price tag is always nice. Alpine MRD M1000. Other than that i dont know what to ask, any help?

 

u got a size preference??
10" 12" 15" what kinda car
what kinda room to play with for box??

 

im not sure the differences between sizes, but have been told 10" is best for techno
and this is going in a 97 civic ex decent size trunk would Prefer smaller box, but if you lose to much from that id go with a medium size

 

ok and what kinda price point u lookin for??

 

im thinking 150-250w rms
maybe top of entry level bottom of above entry level
and fix the pricetag to that

the amp might be changing later on, no need for one that size

 

you will most likely get a 10"
i would look at 12" subs (just off your last post )
i would look at the shops nere you see what they have of last yrs lines ,then tell us what are your top 3 and we will tell you what we know (sometines it is not a lot LOL)

 

Do you mind me asking why you are looking at a 200 wrms sub when you have a 1000 watt rms amp?

If I were you, I would look at a 12" sub if you want a single. It is a common mis-conception that a 10" sub is more suited for techno. It is usually the sub itself rather then the size.

 

ha, ya sounds kinda weird, but all i really need is 150-250 rms and i already have that amp, sooo....
well im thinking of buying a sub used, so not sure where to start?
i need to figure out what size and 1 VS 2

 

What kinda budget are you working on?

 

probably around $200 - but would rather base the $ amount on getting the right sub
