    I'm not so sure on #'s,but I have an older Cerwin Vega 15 that got pretty loud on low power.It's a single 4 ohm 500 watt rms sub with 96db efficiency.I bought it from my neighbor who bought it from his friend.His friend had 4 of these in a cavalier and was hitting in the 150's in '97.I was told that he placed 2nd in the state when he did this,but I'm not for sure.Buy the way,I would sell the sub if your interested.

    tommy hit it on the head...look for a sub with very high sensitivity. Lots of cone area. And likes a vented or bandpass enclosure.

    Just like a drag car...there is no replacement for displacement...Its how you use that availible driver...

    Done a single 6 in a bandpass...sounded like a 15....but not as loud...

    Heck a single flea market 15 will tear your face off in the right box......although not for very long!


    I woulod look at some NON high end or UN popular choices....Do some digging at parts express....you might be amazed at what you find....lots of hidden little secrets if you look at the specs on the drivers, take your time....

    not big on 8's man! i use 8's in sq installs, i use 15's and 18's for spl. when i owned my shop i did alot of 12's and 15's and sometimes an 18. my biggest question is u guy's are familiar with the new stuff and i havent been doing audio for about 3 years. so i wanted to know what the good budget freindly spl subs would be. as for size and all that your awnsering the questions i already know lol, not that i dont appreciate the input but i realy want to know what u guys think is a good budget freindly spl driver!

    I looked at the Lanzar max pro and when I held it in my hand I was disappointed.I had RF P2 10's that each sub weighed more and felt better built than those.I would give the Planet Audio's a try.
