budget sounds

[Blitzkreig]

good day everyone! i would like to ask your opinions because im thinking of putting a budget friendly sound system on my ride a 2001 toyota revo i came across 2 shops already and asked for their suggestions 1 shop is at fort bonifacio (tsikot) their suggestions are 2 x 15 and 1 mono amplifier to drive it and the box will be walled but the problem is the subwoofers are way out of my budget.. i forgot the brand but it costs almost 16k a piece. the next shop is areneta car accessories i was able to talk with the owner and suggested to put 1 15 inch lightning lab subwoofer and 1 mono amplifier thunder audio , i already have a headunit a pioneer 7250sd and targa seps.

question is what can you say about the lightning lab subwoofer (the magnet looks huge!) also the thunder audio amplifier.

or sundin ko suggestion ng mga kaibigan kong may sounds din sabi kasi sakin mas malakas daw marami kahit mababa ang wattage tutal naman daw malaki ang space na pwedeng paglagyan, napaisip din ako dun kasi yung isang 15 inch is parang pang 4 pcs na 12 inch na targa subwoofer since hindi naman po ako sasali sa competition more on self satisfaction lang ano po masasabi niyo? will i go for the 1 15 or 4 x 12 po?

any suggestions welcome po.

Thank You!

kung subwoofer lang.. Tutal sabi mo naman boss ang habol mo lang naman Sounds.

bakit hindi ka na lang bumili sa Blade or ibang car accesories Shop ng pioneer ts-wx303 or A/d/s, Ryan audio na subwoofer

almost 5k-8k lang ang gastos mo. tapos bili ka na lang ng Mono amplifier. malakas na rin 1200 watts model ts wx303 sa A/d/s depende na lang sa Model

suggestion lang po.. :sweat::sweat:

magkano ba ang budget mo? anong hanap mo na tunog? are you after sound quality (SQ) or boom boom pow (SPL)? take note din na malaking space ang kakailanganin ng sub at mabigat din yan.

hanap ka ng mga 2nd hand na sub at mono amp. madami dyan sa mga forums. start ka maghanap sa kotseaudioclub.com. im sure makakakuha ka ng pasok sa budget mo.

Obviously, 4x12 would be louder as it provides more usable cone area. However, you'd have to factor in the additional cost of drivers, what will power it, who will design the box, etc. into consideration. A single driver such as a 15" subwoofer would be more simple of course.

yung gusto ko po sana na malakas yung bayo parang gumagapang po sa malayo kaya ang suggestions po sakin ng mga kaibigan ko 4 x 12 na targa lang malakas narin daw yun sila kasi isa lang ang subwoofer na gamit pero ang lakas di ako pamilyar sa mga brand since bago lang po ako mag set up.

pero ang problema daw kasi pag isa lang subwoofer sa revo hindi daw po magiging ganun kalakas dahil malaki daw po yung space sa loob ng revo. tama po yun?

sir sa isang 12" JBL na subs lang malakas na po yun kung sa loob lang nang revo ang paguusapan natin.... LALONG lalo na pag ginawa mo pang dalawa then naka mono amplifier ka.

[Blitzkreig]

nakakainis yang gumagapang na bass. pag dadaan ka sa residential area nakakatrigger yan ng alarm ng mga oto. baka tirahin ka ng mga residents.

depende sa budget mo yan paps. ako gamit ko front and rear coax na pioneer (local lang wala kasi budget. hehehe ). bazooka sub with xplod XS-L1220R 250 rms. ok naman sa akin ung sound malakas na din sya sa revo. pero pag tumatagal minsan parang bingi ka pag lagi malakas sound kaya parang mahina na ung dating ng sub.

Gapang bass is more of a characteristic of proper box design rather than the subwoofer driver itself. Google "ported box tuning" for more information.

As for which drivers, 4x12 will win over any single 15 incher hands-down. You can move more air while the drivers has less vertical excursion - this is the huge advantage of more surface cone area. The question now is whether you can properly provide ample power or not.

JBL GT5 subwoofers are actually very good. A lot of their features are trickle-down features from their highly rated GTi W12 subwoofer. You're getting a lot for a cheap price and it's one of my favorite budget subwoofers in a decibel match.

sir re. JBL GT5 CAN i pair a 10" GT5 at isang 12"? yung 10" sa gitna nakalagay yung 12 sa Harap...

if yes ano pong klaseng mono class D amplifier ang pwede kung gamitin at ilang RMS?

and kung isang 10" na GT5 lang ano po mono class D amplifier ang pwede kung gamitin at ilan RMS...

sir yung ported box ko sa 10" is 32"X17"X14".... tama lang po ba ang laki ng box? pwede din ba sa 12" yan ganyan size?

[jhnkvn]

Something like 500W upwards is preferred. I believe busog na yun GT5 with around 300W of power.

And you can always pair any subwoofer naman eh. There's no such thing as impossible in pairing 10" sa 12" although going 2 10" and 2 12" for uniformity's sake is also better for the eyes.

As for the dimensions, can't help you there. Try googling a ported box calculator since that's how shops compute theirs (and through their experience)
