Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Car Audio / September 2004Which 6x9s provide the deepest bass?
What brands of 6x9 speakers provide bass deep enough that I wouldn't have to add a subwoofer? I don't want window rattling bass, just good clean, tight, accurate sounding bass. I'm in the process of replacing my entire system from the ground up, and I really don't want to add any subs at all. I would just like some suggestions of brands and models of 6x9s that offer deep bass if possible. Price is no object! Mr. D.

Typically, regardless of price tag, I find most 6x9's overpriced an something that most audiophiles would scoff at... not a function o their cone shape, but rather the drivers used... and the fact that the are intended for full-range use, often slapping a midrange driver tha is confused as to its purpose in life with multiple tweeters suspende above it... just some real oddities out there, and with price tags tha leave you wondering what suckers are buying them. You might check out this speaker from Tang Band, it is a purpose-buil 6x9 subwoofer, that should suit your needs well. http://www.acoustic-technologies.ca/products.html#5-8 Scroll to the W69-1042- http://www.tb-speaker.com/detail/1208_03/w69-1042.asp Price is $38 each. You'll note that it has 7mm of excursion, and an 8 ohm impedance. Th 8 ohm impedance is nice, because you can wire two of them together t present a small amp with a 4 ohm mono load - you only need abou 150w-200w of bridged power to drive these -- geolemo CarAudioForum.com - Usenet Gateway w/over one million posts online I listened to some JL Audio 6x9 coaxials that had tons of bass and sounded really good in general. I'm too lazy to look them up at the moment, but I want to say their XR sereis? With the aluminum dome tweeters?

Out of those two, which offer better bass? I listened to the Pioneers, they sounded very good, even better than my Boston Acoustics! No stores around here have the Infinity Kappas I am looking for, so I don't know how they sound. |
