[mach10]

not my taste but cool

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

sh1t mate

buy a decent make as fli are the cheap versions of vibe which arn't any good either.

u'll get much better quality and more base from a single decent sub rather than 2 crap ones.
i very much doubt the power figures quoted there!

500w rms from an amp that small would be next to impossible.

 

[Hazza]

Never liked the Fli ones.... coz they are in Halfords aswell lol

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

whats your budget?

does it have to an active box deal or would a separarate sub and amp be ok?

 

[imperial04]

:dapprove:

 

[Hazza]

Guessing u've got this sub lol

 

[M8XY G]

i would prefer and active sub, much easier and they work together better usually...

about £150 mark looking for 300w RMS

i thought FLI were just another marketing brand name for VIBE?

 

[A18XHO]

ive got a kicker cvr 15 in a 3.6cubic foot slot ported box tuned to 32hz you can have for £150

 

[alessandro]

got 2 alpine type r subs 1500w peak/500w rms each in box powered by sony amp 1000w rms for sale...

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

fli are but usually cheaper.

if i was spending £150 i'd go for this:

u'll get better sound quality and it'll last a lot longer as they are much better made than vibe / fli

the power figure on rockford amps is also guaranteed and usually produces more than quoted. I have a t800.4 amp which produces 912w rms when it's supposed to do 800w rms.

 

[M8XY G]

im just looking around atm and finding out what i want...

 

[M8XY G]

yeh but what does the sub RMS at, theres no point talking about its peak if it only going to usually do like 150?

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

you wont be dissapointed with rockford stuff, i've been doing installs in most of my cars for years.

started with budget crap then worked up through different manufacturers such as jbl till i went to rockford fosgate had their stuff in my last 3 cars now.

lupo gti:
rockford fosgate fnq 3 speaker components
rockford power series 12" sub
rockford power 100bd amp
rockford 451s component amp

mini cooper s
2x rockford t112d2 subs
rockford 15oobd amp
rockford punch 6x9's in rear 1/4's
rockford powr series components
2x rockford 150 w (ish cant remember exactly) amps for components and rears

clio
rockford fnq components in front
rockford t112 sub
t884 amp running in tri mode to power sub and components

all were set up for sound quality rather than mega bass and all have recieved good feedback from ice shops and other people in the business.

 

[M8XY G]

oh right ok, thats what im going for really

not just a loud thumping noise, a good bass to increase the sound quality.

thanks for the advice ill have a look round at rockford stuff now mate

nice one, cheers

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

u'll probably get more bass from the fli kit but it'll sound pants

also never ever be fooled by the size of an amps case i opened up a mates toxic amp the other day it was less than half full of circuit board i think it'd be safe to say the crossovers for my front components had more in them and that amp was aparently 600w! my arse!

 

[M8XY G]

LOL that would really f**k me off

 

[M8XY G]

what are sony like?

 

[MT AUDIO]
