Default Need suggestions for a good 12" DVC sub
I'm considering some of these...

Eclipse, alumapro, diamond, audiobahn, Image dynamics, JL

Any others I'm missing. I'm going to be running 200 watts (at 2 ohms) so I definately need dual voice coil. Also, I'm thinking long excursion will probably mean it will go a little lower.

Default FYI, BA Pros are available in 2-Ohm SVC. I'm partial to a/d/s/ 3-series . . .
I wonder why . . .

2 ohms total... two 4-ohm voice coils. As I said in original post.. I'm running 200 watts at 2ohms.

Default Ahhh, yes My bad.... sorry...
Sounds like the perfect description of the a/d/s/ 312rs.2

I *highly* suggest this subwoofer.

Default ADS... Yes.. they make good stuff. I'll check that one out as well...
since I'm only running 200 watts I need to find something that works well in that range. I'd hate to buy a sub that really needs 400+ watts and then under power it.
