Audiobahn AW1205Q 12" Ultra Excursion Subwoofer
I can get a good deal on these (Audiobahn AW1205Q 12" Ultra Excursion
Subwoofer) but the cheaper AW1200Q 12" are half price. The main differences are the freq response (the 1205Qs go to 700 as the 1200Qs only to 500. The sensitivity is 0.2dB higher in the 1205Qs. (at what frequency though?) I am trying to decide what is the better buy. The performance and styling are so similar it doesnt make sense why one is double the price of the other. I have never had anything Audiobahn but im trying to find the best deal and best performance possible. I am pretty much a street bass guy (loud and obnoxious) But SQ is important for the DVD Video setup I want. The AW1205Qs are about the same. I know the Kickers i mentioned in another post are not good for SQ. The Audiobahns seem to be what I have been after (good mix of SPL and SQ). If anyone can tell me if they have first hand experience with Audiobahn subs. What amp would be a good choice for these. There are the Boss and Crunch (2 channel) also that will do around 1000 per channel at 2 Ohms i think that they would do ok with these subs. I cant afford more than about $800 for the entire system (2 12"s a 2 or mono channel amp, and enclosure/materials). So far the Audiobahns fit the bill best as far as performance per dollar is concerned. EFFENDI P.S. Have you seen the new Audiobahn headunits. nice looking but way too expensive |

Audiobahn AW1205Q 12" Ultra Excursion Subwoofer
Try and get the TS parameters, download winISD and get a feel for the
enclosure volumes / types they need. Perhaps they are optimized for different enclosure designs. I dont have first hand experience with these. Do a search on the www.tempro.com forum. Lotsa bahn sub users lurking there IMHO Some good sub amps / lines for the $$$: JBL1200.1 Lanzar Opti-drive Hifonics BX1500D I'm waiting for someone to review the BOSS PD series amps Garrett -E-F-F-E-N-D-I- wrote: I can get a good deal on these (Audiobahn AW1205Q 12" Ultra Excursion Subwoofer) but the cheaper AW1200Q 12" are half price.

Audiobahn AW1205Q 12" Ultra Excursion Subwoofer
The Boss PowerDrive was one of the considerations I had for amplifier. Let
me know if you hear anything about them. The HiFonics is probably the next consideration for the package. EFFENDI "Sanitarium" wrote in message ...
