What sub to buy?
 

Ók so im looking at either a planet audio 10 or an eclipse 12. It will be powered by a volvenhag 500 watt amp. Custom ported box in an eg 4 door. Its for my girl for christmas. Also the pa has only 1 year warrenty while the eclipse has three. Both cost 99 brand new at a local car audio shop. Any body got any exp with these subs? mainly she listens to rock and rap. She complains that my sub gives her a headache so it cant bump too hard. I have a quantum audio 12 1500 watt/rms on a lanzar vibe class d mono channel 1000 watt amp in my eg 4 door.

It sounds like youi just need to fill in the "base gap". Just get a JBL 200 watt 8" sub.Thats all you need :y. I think mine was like $89 bucks or something. Beside you wont need such a big box for it......oh and 4doors civic arent EGs ;).

Well she told me that i have to get her one of these two or no christmas booty. And christmas booty is up there with birthday booty so im definatly getting her one of these two. Just looking for opinions on quality/sound.

I like the cold cut combo without onions or peppers.

planet audio is not really known for their subs, rather video monitors and dvd players are their best sellers. the eclipse will sound nice. its a good all around sub woofer. youd be better of with the eclipse in the long run. just keep your amp either at 1/3 of it gain or a little over. never ever evvvvvvvver, i dont know how much i can stress this but, never have your amp at full gain you will instantly blow your sub(s). ive had to many damn customers come back saying that they hooked them up and they blew. i tell every customer that buys subs from us to keep their amp gain at 1/3 of the max and they dont listen. set every option on you amp to 0 and make sure you have lowpass filter on(better bass). then continue to set the options from there. if you have subsonic filter setting on your amp, use it. it will make the bass hit cleaner. if you have anymore audio questions im open for them.

np. i work at a car audio/video dealer. im taking over the store. running it how i think it should be ran, and moving a lot of ---- around right now. hope to start a online website to sell locally and probably to some HMT members, as well as start installing equipment for customers so i can get some more cash right there.
