PG TI12d's

Post by thefowlerfam »

I just traded a set of Alpine Type R 1022d's for a set of PG TI12d's. So far im very impressed with the sq compared to the Alpines. Also they are in a small sealed box, just over 1cf per sub and they get very loud. Im planning on building a ported box for them and was wondering what would be the ideal size box? I want it tuned around 30-32hz. These are my 1st PG subs and im very happy with the trade so far :mrgreen: How are the TI12d's compared to the Ti2 subs or the Type R's? Thanks for any & all replies....Jeremy

assuming the ti's are anything like the rsdc's (and they are supposed to be) the ti's will be a more smooth response curve. the alpines tend to have a 50-60hz bump, at a expense of low end.

i havn't put either of them in a ported box.


so about your username....um, are we brothers?

I dont think so, but stranger things have happened :mrgreen: .... Where are you from? My father is from Chicago, but im from Miami. Yeah that was one of the things I didnt like about the Alpine. Don't get me wrong, for the $$ they were great subs. But they did lack low end bass. These are the 1st non Alpine subs that i've owned since they 1st came out w/ the Type R's lol...I love the sound of these and was thinking instead of going w/ a low tuned ported box, maybe i'll put them in a larger sealed box. I was thinking maybe 1.25-1.50cf per sub.
