What type of sub can get very soft bass?

[gen2R3freak]

Hii, Im a newbie here..
Im wondering what type of brand or type of subwoofer that can give very soft bass. Before this ive try my friend's 10" JBL tube type subwoofer and the bass sound was very soft (tak sakit telinga dengar kuat2). Im looking to replace my sub to get the same type of bass sound but the jbl is too expensive. Is there any other type/brand of sub that can produce the same bass sound. And how can i avoid getting my amp rosak. should i use a capacitor?

thanksss...

peace..:_:

For sure this several sub very good but the prob is JBL to expensive to U leerrr..

a) RS Audio Competition 12" www.rs-audio.de
b) JL Audio JLW6V2-D4 www.jlaudio.com/products_subs_pages.php?page_id=4
c) Phass Aliante series www.phase-evolution.de/produkte.asp? p=subwoofer&view=serie&grp=6&ser=44&lang=EN
d) Sea Lotus Subwoofers - Lotus by SEAS
e) Scanspeak Revelator Tymphany : Products : ScanSpeak

SQ = Sound Quality, for own listening & SPL = Sound Pressure Level, dooommm doommm laaa

SQ = sound quality
SPL = Sound pressure Level

if u want soft bass, play music with soft bass lah, haha....thats the easiest solution, other than that, switch off the HU bass enhancer/boost or reduce sub level output if the HU has it, or lower the sub amp gain, etc etc lah

any sub can play soft, just a matter of tuning/adjusting/reducing this and that...

Whatlah you, people asking budget SQ stuffs, u go and recommend super high end stuffs. You thought going to competition meh. People said JBL already too expensive then you go and recommend those.

Try some 2nd hand stuffs. If want new SQ subwoofers, maybe the Helix Deep Blue or Phd CF series subwoofer should suit your budget (hopefully). By the way, what is your budget? :shades_smile:

All those ppl using that Sub must go to competition kaa? .. actually any Sub can do soft bass.. either ayam or branded.. if U combo with right enclosure & give enough pwr, U will get it lorrr.. for me the best low budget is Alpine Type E..

 

[howiechoo]

ya, every sub can get low bass...just how long it can handle and how accurate it can handle...

a chapalang can handle 30hz but only at 50db....while a branded sub can handle it at 100db...see the difference?

get a chapalang sub tat can handle doesn;t mean it's useful....if u on ur volumn at 20 and ur sub can only handle till 5, wat the point?????

I have listen 1 Kancil car, the kancil just using 'Pyle' sub in Tube enclosure but the Bass very good.. every thing up to tuning skill loorr.. setting crossover slope at higher level (>12db) will make the sub more soft, at lower (<12db) will make the sub more harder..

use large sealed box (1.5 ~ 2 cu.ft or higher) or use low port tuning eg. 25~28hz.
The large sealed box will lower the sub+box Qtc where the bass in 40~80hz range is flatter i.e. no large peaks and extend the low frequencies.
Using large low port tuning box also give the same effect.

So final conclusion are 5 point to take note:
