@ Jas6789,

Kindly tell only 50% of total budget.

A good SPL setup for competition? Get ready to spend atleast 60k to 75k!!
I think that prepares you for some good budget SPL.

Then you can also think of going more higher by even upgrading the power system of the car by putting a bigger alternator, big or extra batteries etc... And then add more Subs, amps, caps etc..

You don't wanna go that high? Then, LBM's question needs to be answered.

Well There is no limit for Good SPL, but among stuff available here:

Basic but loud SPL Setup. ( Rs 40k to 45k)
2 X Premier 2000 Watt subs (1000 RMS each)
2 X Sony 1400 Watt Mono Amp (The old Hexagonal Sony Amp)

Mid Range SPL Setup (Rs 85k to Rs 1.25L)
2 X Kicker 12" L7 subs (750 RMS Each)
2 X Kicker ZX750.1 Monoblock amps

or

2 X Kicker 12" L7 subs (750 RMS Each)
1 X Hifonics Brutus 1606d Monoblock amp (1600 RMS)

If one is the cosmic meltdown types who wants to go overboard and above then :

High End SPL Setup (Lakhs and more lakhs)

2 X Kicker 12" SOLOX subs (2500 RMS Each)
2 X ZX2500.1 Mono Amps (2500 RMS Each)

or

2 X Kicker 12" SOLOX subs (2500 RMS Each)
1 X Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Monoblock amp (4000 RMS)

or

2 X Kicker 12" SOLOX subs (2500 RMS Each)
1 X Hifonics XX Golaith Monoblock Amp (5000 RMS)

All above setups are double sub setups. A lot of SPL can be achieved with a lot many lot smaller lot cheaper subs.

@jas- be afraid....be very afraid (you have just entered the ICE section) :P

on a more serious note as you are from DELHI you can contact gunbir or autophile they can help you out or just wait of there replies or just tell everyone your budget then you can have inputs from all the ice gurus.!

Pioneer makes good HUs, JBL make good speakers. Both have a whole range of products at various price points. Do let us know how much you are willing to spend before people tell you what you should buy.

Well here is some news from us on the SPL front... HERTZ is coming out with a new series of serious high end SPL subs. Called the "SPL Monster" subs, these were previewed at CES in Jan and will be out later this year.







As per initial information, the 12"er will be able to handle 8000w burps!!! The interesting part is the field replaceable motor and cone assembly that can be changed on the fly in the middle of competition if required. A serious SPL product meant for the serious competitor, they will be priced around INR 70~80k here and will have HERTZ's special "SPL warranty". Also look out for complementary power from the new HERTZ HP1.2KD amps, that can be strapped to put out 8000w.

[speedzak]

Blueman! That was a great writeup. And that MTX baby looks huuuuuuge!

Before guys make you crazy with insane SPL here, post your budget.

[low_bass_makker]

I think he will take a month to get back as he is a member since aug 2006 and only 3 posts...with a gap of month in between so I think he will be back in mid march with the budget......

[navin]

Shame! Someone metions he wants to spend money and everyone on ICE starts salivating at the thought helping him spend it! :-) LOL

Jas 6789,

a) specify the SPLs you wanna reach. More exactly atleast spec SPL at 50Hz & 100Hz.
b) Money you wanna spend. Define it exactly. The "Gurus" here are very good at enticing you.
c) The music you listen to
and...
Dont forget damping, wires, and other such paraphenlia. I would say that if you have a budget of say Rs. 100, spend Rs. 20 on the paraphenlia, and 80 on the woofer/box and amp.

The cheapest would be a pair of Pio 306c in a 2.5-3 cu. ft. sealed box (wide as the car about 3 ft x 12-18" tall x 12" deep) powered by a D510. Should cost you about 25K with damping and wires. The Sky is the limit.
