I currently hve 2 10" RFZ's in a Bandpass, runing off a 300 watt, dclass amp. It has enough bump, but it offten hits late, and with alot of distortion, it is not the amp, as i have heard it with other speakers, but I am wondering if I should change subs, box, or both? Suggestions on brands would help.

Thanks.

 

I think that the distortion is caused by the amp not being able to provide the subs with all the power they can handle.
With my first system I had a lot of distortion comming from my sub. I upgraaded my amp from a cheep 300w kenwood amp to a MTX Blue Thunder amp Which cleared up my distortion and made the sub sound amazing. To clear up the bass try facing the subs into the trunk not facing the seats. And try adjusting the gain control. RF Subs are verry good. So are MTX Subs, Kicker Makes some of the best ones therea are.
But for any sub you need to remember that the more powerfull the amp the better, don't ever say good enough when it comes to amps. I hope this helps.

 

I don't think the power is the problem, I am sending 300 watts to each sub, which is 100 watts over the recomendation. Plus these are the buttom end Rockfords.

 

Then you should find some other subs, MTX makes good subs.
CANUCK what city are you from.

 

I am actually living in Denver, contrary to what my handle might suggest. What does everyone think of Boston, or Eclipse Subs?

 

If you are in the market for subs remember that the bigger the magnet the better and the stiffer the cone the better.
Both of the brands are ok I guess. I am not fimiliar with them.
