150w rms sub...suggestions

lotas · Post by **lotas** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 1:33 pm

Guys I'm starting my stealth install for college and all I want is my 1 JL amp (a 300/4) as I'll be powering some decent coaxs with two channels I'm gonna bridge the other and feed a 10"/12" sub 150wrms.

I'm looking for a less powerful version of my XXX. Basically an SQL sub, I want an SQ sub with some boom, not a loud sub that sounds decent. There's really no limit on the price, but obviously 150wrms subs can't get too expensive (well I'm sure there's exceptions but you get it).

It'll be a small sealed box, as it's gonna be a hidden install and I want to keep it as simple as possible.

So can I get some suggestions? Not a big sub guy.

I'm also semi-open to buying a sub amp if you guys wanna reccomend a sub that's say 300w rms, as the JL won't be enough, I'm just trying to get my feet wet in some research.
Thanks a lot.

A 10" XLS or XXLS would do great. 12" would work too.

well i have an exs with 500 watts to it. sounds great, but it is an sq sub. mine is fairly loud only cause its in a 3 cuft ported box. one of the lower end bravox subs would be nice, but i haven't heard any of those yet. check em out on there site

should also mention i had it in a small sealed box to begin with, and it wasn't very loud at all, great sq though

Was my suggestion also. 150 WRMS is pretty ideal for one...

A single 12" can be placed in a 1 cube enclouse and trust me, its got healthy output in 1 cube with about 120 WRMS... Shook my apartment...

What will you be doing with the XXX? And how come you don't wanna keep it? Don't wanna get robed?
