I am looking at putting a new sub and enclosure in my 09 210SAN. The factory sub/location sucks.
I am kicking the tire between these options (in no order):
Kicker 12 L7
Kicker 12 L5
Kicker CVX12
Alpine Type "r"
Amps would be between these:
Kicker ZX750.1 750 at 2ohm
Diamond Audio D31000.1 600 at 2ohm/1000 at 1 ohm
Hifonics BXI1210D 900 Watts 2ohm
Alpine MRP-1000 1000 watt at 2 ohm
I prefer to run the sub at a 2 ohm load as to not strain the crap out of the amp.
Sub Box:
I was going to be a simple sealed enclosure and waterproof myself with truck bed liner/rip off carpet. Who makes the best there are so many sub enclosure companies. I want a selaed enclosure though.
My main issues here are:
-I am not about having to be heard from a distance.
-I enjoy my music, and want a tight bass and responsive bass response from the sub.
-I guess i am more interested in SQ versus SPL.
Whats the thoughts on the equipment and scenario; I am not the best at building bass. Unfortunately there is no one in the area with a CVX setup to demo or Type 'R'. I previously had a 12" L5 in a sealed box in my supra. It was good but in a vented area, this box will be in the observers storage area (will the area need to be vented).
