My buddy has a 98 Z28 that is cayenne. He is wanting to get two 10's or 12's to mount on top of the gas tank(he has t-tops) He wants to get subs that will kind of match his color but still pound. The only ones that we have seen are volfenhags that I have heard good and bad things about and alumapro. Any one know what might be a good choice??

Brian
Here is a pic of his car....nice

 

You could go with the red sonys...

(PS dont listen to me )

 

I almost knew someone was going to say sony. I should have said that sony is the devil.
I am just glad you were not serious.
Brian

 

No prob, I made the mistake of buyin them. Although the silver ones dont sound bad at all, I still wouldnt recommend them unless you are on a tight budget (like I was). Ask KJ Rocks (I think thats his name) about the Volfenhags, he has a pair.

 

was at a show will have pics up shortly buy a guy had 3 10's made by mobile athority they had red foam suround with black center and m a audio in red. dont know what amp was pushing it but it sounded pretty good from what i heard.

 

I have seen those too. I have not yet heard them though.

Thanks,
Brian

 

Volfenhag's. Get um, they rock.

And they look good tooo.

 

Is that your system??

Also you can try American Pro's........they light up red......ha.ha........don't know about the sound quality though......

 

I'd get some aluminum subs like the type r's or alum sound Q's by audiobahn. don't match the subs to the car, get ones taht look good and match the INSTALL to the car

 

Hey KJRocks...
How much do those Volfenhags cost??? Also, what kind of power can they handle, and do they have some kind of warranty on them?? I've heard bad things about them but they might be ok to start with.

Visonik



$58/ea and they sound GREAT!!!!!!

The visoniks are 6 ohm though. Arent subs that are 6 ohm designed to run as three sub setups.

Brian

 

You can get them in other impedance values. Did you click on the link I posted?

AJ

 

ya, I clicked on it and they just talked about the dual 6 ohm ones.

Brian

 

Also.....

Don't think I'm shying you away from Volfenhag. They look to be a great sub also.

I actually think they have a cool *** name. You can tell people you have German subs then they'll know they gotta be tough!!!!!!

:hail: :hail: Hail Volfenhag :hail: :hail:

I guess those don't work.

Go to the bottom of the page and do a search. You can also get them from www.Crutchfield.com albeit more money.

 

yup, thats where your other link took me. I then clicked on 12" and then on the last page it talks about them.

Brian

 

WOW!!! They're not more money!!!!!

damn, I thought they looked familiar. I was just reading my crutchfield in the "reading room" haha.
So they actually sound pretty good? Thanks,
Brian

 

I hadda set of Volfenhags in my Ranger, pushed by a PPi A600 and a crossover. They do better than JL w3's and I had them in a ****ty box. I also noticed they are one of the only subs I have ever had that just got better as the box got bigger. Airspace on them didnt seem to be THAT big a factor with a sealed box.... still hit just as hard and deep. Then again, I never made a small box for them.

 

I'm telling you guys,

The Volfenhags kick serious ***

I dont know why no one believes me.
I can out do my friends with Type R's ,and W3's

And I am only pushing 200w rms to the subs....
Imagine if I upped it.....

And yes Flyning low, that is my system...

 

Well my buddy is deciding to get the volfenhags because KJ is so damn crazy about them. My other buddy has two type r 10s so we will see which put out more thump. I will let everyone know what it looks and sounds like when we finish the project in a couple of weeks.
Thanks for all the input
Brian

 

I agree KJ

When I got them, I was like *boner*

The magnets on them are just about as bad4ss as Orion Hcca's
25 lbs a sub...for 150 a pair....is a damn good deal in my book.

I ran a setup of my two 12's, a Volfenhag 1600w amp and a Pyle 40$ crossover (JC Whitney heh) and I hit up in the same decibel range with a CV Stroker 15"

To me.... thats hella good... and to think, I paid for my whole setup what he did for just his Sub with box.

Call me a Kmart shopper but nobody knew unless they were told.

On top of that, they look great too.

:hail: Volfenhag :hail:

 

I have not personally experinced or have had an opportunity to listen to the " Germ's " as we call them here in Ok. Although, I did have a local Car Audio dealer tell me that they were s**t. He said he had the box matched perfectly with the Manufactures reccomendations, he hooked up a Legacy 800 Watt Amp 2-channel and blew the voice coil apart. As I said before, I have not personal experience, but I'll give it tok then that they look kewl.

 

So what did you meter at?

Brian

 

Who said they didn't?

AJ

 

before you guys start comparing your subs to your friends subs, you gotta make the playing field even. if they are different cars, the game is over before it starts. if its the same car then you need to have the same amp too. our cars have the ability to really pound when you face those subs toward the rear hatch glass. remember the above when comparing subs.

 

this is my choice pick.they sounds great,look good.



Woofer
12"

Nominal Impedance
4 ohms
4 ohms/voice coil VEGA 12D4

Sensitivity
94 dB*

Power Handling
400W (rms)
200W/voice coil VEGA 12D4 (rms)
800W (max)

Frequency Response
20-500 Hz

 

here are the subs i had in my car for awhile. they hit pretty good for their price i guess. i hit a 138.3 using a medicore Crunch amp so they arent too bad....

 

if anybody wants these i may be willing to sell them. pm me if you are interested.

 

I totally agree, it is really hard to compare subs when they are in the car. there just isn't anyway to properly compare in a car. the only true way is on a demo board, and even then sometimes the stores will make the subs they want to sell sound better.
