Good 200 watt 12 inch subs?

lukeman269 · Post by **lukeman269** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 3:58 pm

I am looking to hook up a lower wattage system around 400 rms or so. I would like to know what subs perform well at the 200 rms range. I feel that I don't need ridiculous wattage to sound good. I am getting a Xenon 400.1 from dvnt88 soon and I have a sealed box at around 1.2 cubic ft. per chamber that I am going to put the 12's into. I am mainly looking for good sound quality and range. I have about 150 bucks to spend, so let me know if any of you guys have a pair of subs you are looking to get rid of.

As far as brand goes, I would like to get PG, but I have looked around and couldn't really find anything that fits the bill. So I am open to pretty much any brand out there. Thanks!

Look for old school stuff. they have lower wattage ratings than almost all the newer subs. maybe Xmax?

I ran the version ones off of an M50 back when and I was hitting 135 db and they had great SQ and dug down low..... great subs

JL W0, RSd (not Comps), Dcon, the ID above, Elemental Designs 0v series. All I think would treat you right.

Thanks for the help guys! I am either going to get rsd's or jl audio w0v2's if I can find any. I posted an ad on the buy and sell trying to get a pair of rsd's. If you guys know anyone that has any rsd's or w0v2's, let me know.

Actually the RSDCs are plenty good on 200 watts as well. I preferred my RSDC over my RSD on 250 watts. Not to mention a much smaller box requirement as well!

I think the rsdc's are a little out of my price range though.

i'm gonna have to agree with tom. the rsdc's > rsd's on any amount of power.

rsd's are still plenty good though

The Kicker 2nd gen XPLs are awesome, kinda miss my 10" but I know who has her & I could see/hear her anytime. If you want to stay PG,, I'd recommend the XS over the XMAX for the power & better SQ.

Outside of PG, TREO's TSi 12" would be my next choice.

Grab a used RSDC, or a Dcon.
