Active Sub

[ZanClio]

im looking to buy an active sub for my car, currently have sony speakers replacing all stock speakers along with a pioneer aftermarket headunit. Just wondering what people think i should go for with a budget or around £200 max but ideally £150.

Vibe CBR10 new is £160 - perfect for the job. CBR12 you can pick up for about 200 new. Both are best in their class for actice subs.

Not heard many good things about Vibe speakers on here, not sure how their subs rate though.

You could try this Pioneer, it's within your budget.

Is an active sub a definite requirement? Can get some really good sub+amp deals for that money

yes ideally i would like a active sub just dont want too many things in my boot . But i suppose if there are any really good deals with subs and amps i may consider it.

For a £150 - £200 budget it's only really going to be a cheap "it will do the job" purchase.

I'd go for Pioneer over Vibe anyhow

Found this active sub and looks quite nice and not too big. Has anyone got one of these or ever heard one in operation? Opinions please.

If you can afford it - hell yes!

I was going to get this when choosing my first sub
Sounds really good

Hmm £200 not willing to push it a extra £50 - £75?

Small difference in price in my eyes, but will make a massive difference in sound and listening pleasure

All depends what the overall aim is for the car, and how far you want to go with your sound setup.

I'm guessing ZanClio just wants a decent cheap setup that's practical - maybe easy to take out for more room?

What HU & speakers have you got in?

 

[ZanClio]

I have a pioneer headunit unsure of specific model and sony speakers all round. Just want the sub for a bit of extra bass. Also think that alpine one looks nice where as them vibe ones that were suggested look a bit tacky and ugly.

Gammer - What would you suggest for £50 more, the budget can be stretched rather easily

This should be interesting :star:
