Ive been thinking about either getting DVC alpine type-rs with a jbl amp or phoenix golds with some sort of amp. Im wondering what you guys feel sound better. I know the phoenixes have a bit more RMS then the alpines. The phoenixes are like 900 RMS pair so it would end up being 450 per sub 225 per voice coil. the alpines are something like 300 RMS. 150 per coil or something. Im wondering what sort of subs I should get too. 2 ohm or 4 ohm and what kinda channels amp I should get. Im not really looking to spend more then 500.00 on subs amp box and the box is going into a cutlass.

Can someone explain the ohms thing to me also. And what the differences are.

i would go with phoenix gold thats what i have
Phoenix Gold Octane-R 15.0:1 1000watts rms 2@ 1500peak crap
around 400-550$$

 

the ohms the lower it goes the more the amp will make in power most amps will not run lower then 2ohms with out smoking them audiobhan will go to 1ohms stable very few will go any lower without a lot $$$$$

 

Alpine!

 

well im not gonna get crazy 500. each woofers. just prolly the Xennon series 10s. 450rms with Dual Voice Coils. Hell Im really not sure how to wire the dual coils. Can someone explain!

I have not heard the PG Xenon subs, but the Titanium subs are nice. You can still get them if you look around and for really cheap to since they are the old model. I think they look alot nicer then the Xenon subs too.
