www.respl.com, xxx sub.

bass with sq as i've read. also, insane amounts of power they can handle although not necessary.

Current Setup is a sealed Single 12" Type R Alpine Sub running off a Sony Xplod XM1502 Amp. Perfect for everything. Source Headunit is Sony MDX-M690 Active Black Panel MD unit with a 6 CD changer. Works well for everything

Hmmm.. lot of different opinions here. But it seems that sealed is the most popular enclosure. Does the size of your trunk/car have anything to say on how large/many subs you need?

My goal is to have a nice & clean sound in my car. Not too much bass.

for trance, which doesn't have many long low bass notes such as HipHop and DnB (except for a few songs) you will not need anything bigger than 12"s

12" subs give you the best all round response. they can respond fast enough to the rapid beats and when it comes to the low notes, they can still give it some oomph.

Sealed boxes give a tighter response as they are airtight and will give a sharper kick due to something to do with pressure differences

You're goal is to have a nice clean sound in you're car, in which case i would recommend one 12" sub. That does it for me, and is still loud enough for everyone to hear with the windows down

Sounds good
Hopefully I'll get my new system up and running by this summer.

Ive had a sound system in a 655 mustang (so all steel everything shitty steel trunk) it sounded terrible because unless I put the sub in the back seat the trunk just always made the phase out of sync.

Then I put it in my 2 door hatchback. What a difference@! beauty!

Now its in place in a WRX and still sounds cherry, but not as good as the hatch. Just watch out if youre trying to put this crap into a monster.

Ive got an old JVC Camelion head unit (17w RMS x4 55 peak) running to 4 6 1/2inch infinity kappa speakers. For bass I have an Infinity Basslink X:





The sub has one active and one passive 10 inch woofer and Ive got the control for it up front so I dont have to go and tweak with the settings. If I want alot of bass, I just crank the biatch over, less, I dial it back. The great thing about this is that it has an amp built in, and it is tiny. Driving a round a piece of shit rice burner.. I dont have much trunk space. But with this I get wonderful sound clarity and detail without losing truck space. I enjoy it. It is self powered and If my windows are closed, you dont even know I have a sub, but with the windows down, she makes herself known
