Out of curiosity my air space without a subwoofer is 1.75. How would I figure out what the r series would take up of that? Looking at the specs subs optimal air space in ported is right around 1.6.

Not a Kicker fan.

Tried out the S series subwoofer. Though it sounded much better than the Infinity I'm going to be sending it back in turn for the R series subwoofer instead. I did upgrade my box to the SKAR Audio ported enclosure that is bed lined over being carpeted. 1.75 tuned around 35hz. That made a big...

Have an older Alpine power pack that I'm looking to replace with the KTP 445A. Bought one that was new according to seller. Never even put power to it and it started smoking on me before I could even plug it into the back of my head unit. I know it's plug in play so there isn't a chance it was...

Thanks. I crossover everything at 80hz but, for my sub amp when setting gains I turn the crossover to max until I set the gain then back it to 80hz.

Oh ok. So don't use a 50hz for the sub?

Thanks. Did the 1k test tone at 0DB 23 to 24 is a small change in pitch. Once at 25 it's a very noticeable change on internal head unit amp. On loud recordings I find 24 to be around max. While lower ones 26 to 27 is max before I hear a little distortion in mids and highs. Ordered the Alpine S...

Does anyone know when the internal amp distorts on an Alpine CDA 9886? Also the pre out for the subwoofer as well? Thanks.

Oh ok. Yea I have more room. It's the only enclosure I have at the moment.

Good deal then. Yea I have the Infinity 1200s at 2 ohms and it's ok but, doesn't really rock to me. I had Infinity reference mids and highs and replaced them with Alpine S series and it was a vast improvement. Infinity was way too bright for my taste.

Thanks. I have the S-A60M. Currently running the Infinity 1200s and really not happy with it. I have Alpine s series mids and highs with an alpine head unit as well CDA-9886. Figured I'd keep it all the same. Also the air space for both subs are 1.0 to 1.5. Most other subs especially 12s require...

Have a chance to buy a new s series 12 inch for 135.00 or an r series 12 inch for 235.00. Would be pushing 600 watts rms off an Alpine mono amp in a 1.3 ported enclosure at 38hz. Which would be the better deal all around and hit harder?
