subwoofer/ sound quality question..
thinking about tweaking the sound system again..
right now i have..
Infinity 5 channel amp (4x50 and 1x300 at 2 ohms)
Boston Acoustics SX60 components w/ crossovers in the front
Rockford Fosgate shallow mount 6.5 2 ways in the rear
2 Rockford Fosgate 8" (stage 1) subwoofers in separate sealed (and very heavy) enclosure (they are 4 ohm rated at 150w each, i have them wired in parallel to make the effective resistance 2 ohms)
I'm starting to get tired of my sub box taking up so much cargo space... don't really want to go with a rear door mounted woofer.. so im thinking of going to a single 10" or 12" setup, but dont want to lose sound quality... right now my bass blends near perfect with everything else. any input on how 1 large sub would compare to two smaller subs as far as sound quality goes? Will i lose some overall volume/ sound pressure by moving to a 300w (at 2ohms) woofer from a pair of 150w 8" (at 4 ohms) getting the exact same feed
2 Eights in the rear door.....
Etlsport,
I like tight accurate base, so I built in 2 eight inch subs (Polk db series) with sealed enclosures into the spare tire compartment. I also had room in there for a four x 70 watt amp for my full range speakers, and a two x 100 watt amp for the subs. It's balanced well, and is all the volume I need inside the VX. I'll take some pictures tonight and post them in my gallery for you.
