rite ok, this is the system i am hopin 2 set up in my 53 plate clio within the next couple of months.

Alpine CDA9812RB single CD HU

Focal 165K components

Focal 5WS 5" subs in rear quarter panels

Vibe CBR-12 TWIN 12" Blackair subs powered by Vibe Blackbox III amp

components powered by Vibe Blackbox II amp.

What do u lot think? i want a basic but powerful set up, i mainly listen 2 Drum n Bass but sumtimes hip-hop woyld this go well? thanx 4 ur help.

for the same money as the vibe kit you could get much better SQ kit, which judging by your other selections is what you are aiming for

 

[Tom]

Yes i have to agree, too many people overkill bass with hiphop you need a decent balance i listen to alot of drum and bass/hiphop with my sq setup

You simply dont need 2 12s to enjoy decent bass.

if it was me i would go with one very powerful 10 incher.

 

[Bryan]

Phase Linear Aliante 12si would be the best for you, deep bass with unerring control

 

[Tom]

Blow the budget

[wkd_clio_16v]

tom-m may be able to get hold of them, if you ask him

but if you want to buy online i believe http://www.caraudiodirect.co.ukCAD sell them

 

[wkd_clio_16v]

could u recommend a suitable amp 2 reun them off then please. thanx

Audison LRx1.400

 

[wkd_clio_16v]

wheres u get them from?

 

[Bryan]

youll be lucky, virtually no-one imports them in this country

ICE Direct may, if youre lucky, but i got mine through a very close friend of mine who owns an ICE shop, imported one for me as a one off

 

[wkd_clio_16v]

ok then well can u recommend an amp that will power them then, that i can buy over here? thanx 4 all ur help.

Phase Linear Opus 1

if you can afford them Sinfoni amps are awesome for SQ, but very expensive
