Best VFM Performance Subs

Ajaybiz · 7th July 2009, 19:31

Thanks DerAlte sure will check there, also hows other brands models which i am keen about MB Quart DWG-254, Soundstream XW-10 and INFINITY 1062W.

Infinity should be better than the other 2.
MB Quart as i have heard used to make good ICE Stuff earlier but not any more.

Soundstream. Better avoided.

HMM I'm surprised that no one has suggested the Kicker CVRs yet!

The CVRs are unbelievable subs for the price, they can really bump, and go low. Well I need not say much, as I'm sure everyone has heard of Kicker as a brand and what their products can do.

I had the same question as DjNik in mind.

Among the GZ 30T, JBL 1214 And the polk db124 SVC which would be the best choice?

abhinav.gupta88 · 12th July 2009, 22:10

I'll say GZ30T>JBL 1214 > Polk db124.

Thanks abhinav.

Does anyone have ant other views.

Has anyone heard all 3.

abhinav.gupta88 · 15th July 2009, 17:57

I haven't heard the Polk but yes i have heard the other 2.

mohitd · 24th July 2009, 22:49

Thats exactly what I want to know.
I have heard that the Polk is better than the JBL.

Thanks abhinav.

Well i may be OT , i dunno but still i will ask this guys

What is our say over ID V3 12" being a value for money sub , provided our budget is 14-15.

VFM money depends upon various factors:
1. Your budget
2. What you expect from the product

BMW 5 series can be VFM for a person who wants to spend 45 Lacs but not for a person who has a budget of 15 lacs

Check out options you have for 14-15K in other brands, then compare and listen and decide if its VFM or not!

That is what i mean . VFM can be even be in context for some one who is spending 1 crore .

I just asked a simple question

And also what competition got to offer.. for now the i20 is a VFM car since we have the Jazz too on Indian roads

I have a Polk 8". It does its job for a car like the Swift!

That won't be the perfect comparison. 8" Polk vs 10 or 12" (considering 14-15k) ID V3.

Even a 15" ID V3 will sound a bit different from 10" ID V3.

Fountainheader · 27th July 2009, 23:28

Oh I never meant that to be a comparison. It was a reply to the earlier GZ, JBL stuff.. but yes it now looks stupid to bring in a Polk 8" into the picture
