Are Memphis Audio Subs any good?
Specifiaclly the 10 inch dual voice coil? I would be using this in a sealed box with about .7 cu feet in my WRX Wagon. What else would you recommend? I am on a tight budget.
Thanks

image dynamics. all the way. they are pretty cheap for what you get. i think sound domain sells them for >$120 shipped
or elemental designs. i have 6 of there eu-700's and they are built very well. haven't powered them up yet so i can't comment on the sound but pentavolvo really likes the ed line of subs

If you are getting the 10 dual voice coil Memphis PR or Power Reference sub, .7 will be good for an accurate punchy sound from those subs. The shop I currently work for sells these subs for $80 each. Pretty good all around sub for a cheap price (retail, anyhow...)
Hope this helps!!

I ordered the memphis....worth a shot PLUS the guy that builds the enclosures says they are comparable in sound quality (in his box) to the jl audio W3. I will let you know how it turns out- these are going in my WRX Wagon.

Its only a single 10" in a "stealth box". the box is made up of fiberglass and MDF and sits above the spare tire but does not take up any space in the car. The box AND the sub set me back $300 with shipping. It should get installed in the next 10 days- I will let you know how it compares to my jl stealthbox in the vette.

Ran 4 of em sealed off an Elemental Designs Nine1, box was built to spec but I feel the box could have been leaking or flexing leading to poor sound quality. Let me know what you think of it once you get it installed

I had a Memphis 10" in my caddie. Sounded great it was installed in the factory location, not in a box. It hit hard. I had an Alpine amp on it. And plan to install it in my vettes rear compartment.

I Have em all
Hello I can tell ya i have Memphis ,Image Dynamics and Massive. They all Sound diff. I love Image Dynamics But massive has better Bass. Memphis is Okay. Depends on what Sound you want. I love Image Dynamics you can put rock,Rap and bass comes out really good. Massive is more bass i have 2 10" in a RX-8 and Love em. I have Image dynamics on a 2005 Town and Country and love those there. memphis were on a Honda Accord and sounded good but not like the other two. Hope this helps Find your self a shop that will let you try each one. My local shop did that for me they did a great job on the Installs too.
