what to look for when choosing a sub



i know bout matching rms values not peak but is there anything else i should look at.

so we recon this would have good range

yea its called the surround me thinks

ive noticed that the more movment u can get on the cone the more bass u seem to get lol. Bit like with my sub its only 1 x 4 icnh spakers but it moves the same amount of air as 2 due to the dual chamber. Its all about moving air i think

i had my sub playing just a consstand 60hz and i had one of those jamtart cases flooting on the reflex tubes pirrty funny actually. kept me entertained for like 30 secss till the song stops then replayed and the thing went flyin off

another question if you lot don\'t mind how can i find out if my system is running at 2 ohms or 4 ohms?

wqht amp u gonna be using for the sub

this is her

so how can i tell?

so id imagine is u had that sub rated at 2ohms

ok thanx m8

yup the ring round the edge is the surround my XXX18 can move 100mm peak to peak

that sub is single 4 ohms so you want your amp to put out its most at 4ohms

danm thats gonna have a lot of air moving about miens only 3 cm

can u suggest a sub then that would be well matched to my amp

maybe this one

but isn\'t that sub still 4 ohm, cause was told earlier my amp was best at 2 ohm? thanx for lookin anyway

tru tru wht i was also thiking is wire 2 of them up in parralel and this will put it down to 2 ohm and will also enable all the power, have to confirm this for you though

im only lookin for a single sub as i want to sink it in spare wheel well, so i can put a false floor in a regain my boot
