do you think a R2 10 ultra shallow mount would be louder & bassier than a punch P2 8 ? Help with your oppinion

Yes. Usually a rule of thumb, the bigger the sub the more rumble, smaller the sub the more punchier

My personal opinion, ported but that's just me. I like deeper richer more powerful bass, but it currently have 3 of those same 12s in a sealed box anew they still hit hard as ever. However I'm making a ported box this summer. Overall, it's all about the kind of bass you like, if you want more clear bass go with the sealed, if you want the thunderous boom go with the ported. Hopefully I helped !!

I wouldn't say woefully. Depending on your preferred volume and source material, it might suit you. I'm using an Emotiva a-100, rated @ 50w/8 ohm and 80w/4 ohm. It's got a lot more power than I need with the 10.1s.

The Clubs are better when used as a 2.0 System. I own both and I can say that yes, the MB42X's are more refined but lack low end. If you are planning to add a sub in the future (2.1 system), get the MB42X's and a sub (Martin Logan Dynamo 300). The Clubs can go loud and low, just get a powerful amplifier because they are harder to drive than the MB42X's.

Nope. I have a hifonics 1000rms and its jist perfect. So beat bet, get one good amp or 2 decent ones for those subs. But i omly have one and people hear me a few blocks out.

believe it or not im pushing 2 with a 500 watt dual brand amp and it sounds great i wasnt after loudness as much as clarity and ritch bass and i get both with less amp then trying to run max.

Std( midgrade )sub will fit but you'll get better sound from a shallow mount sub due to inadequate air space. I have a kicker cvt in mine and it gives me great bass all around

Well I haven't heard the Yorkville LS801P Powered Subwoofer so I cant really say which is better. All I can tell you is the Cerwin Vega power and punch compared to many out there in the market. I would recommend you to go to a store where they have both and try them out and make your best choice.

I have tried it with a P-bass. The cleanest sound was distorted. No bass type bottom end. Turning up the gain made a grainy hi-mid distortion. Not really usable for anything I would play or practice with. You can hear your notes so it might be of use to some players.

Eric, go with the Rockford Fosgate Prime 250x1 mono block amp. It has a very small footprint, very affordable, and these amps, in my opinion, are still one of the best on the market. These amps are always underrated, come with an actual RMS rating tested by the manufacturer, and will be plenty of power to push a 10" sub. It will not disappoint.

I used this for two 10s then my rear 6x9s. The 1600 watts isn't true power you can get maybe 400W, but mostly 300 depending on how you wire stuff. It did make a nice little thump with the 10s in a custom box but i would go Audiobahn or Rockford since they are way cheaper these days.Look at the Audiobahn A8002M 2200W 2 Channel Class A/B Intake Series, little more price wise but you'll get at least 1000w true and its way better built. It used to be in the $300 to $400 range for this quality. If you really want power gonna have to spend at least $300 so that your not just blurting out noise but the above is for quality with a nice bump or rock music.

I use this sub with a mrp-m500 amp pushing 500 watts rms at 2 ohms and it thumps....the only reason you would need the type r is if you have an amp pushing more than 500 watts rms. this is a good clean sounding sub I recommend it. Cheers!

Fosgate speakers make an excellent up grade. Not easy to install. I have the 6.5".I don't think 1/2 will make a difference. Get an amp & subwoffers

If your receiver is pushing more watts per channel then this amp will not be louder. But the quality of sound produced by the Emotiva will more than likely be a large improvement, unless you own a high-end receiver (normally costing thousands of dollars).

If you are using these mounts for surround speakers I recommend using speakers that have the same ohm rating as your main and center speakers. I started with a Denon receiver with Sony SSF-7000s as my main speakers. I had a small center and two small surrounds and the sound was just ok, but once I added a matching center Sony SSF-5000 (hard to find now) and two Sony SS-B1000s as surrounds the sound was great! The surrounds were too big for my existing mounts so I purchased the larger VideoSecu mounts. At first the surrounds and mounts seemed quite large and a bit industrial looking but I have gotten used to them and they sound great.

Brutally. Watch the gains. P3's like ported enclosures, so USE THE SUBSONIC FILTER on it.

It would be more then enough and it pushes way more the 800 watt i have mine on 2 l3 kicker 15 dropped all the way down to 1ohm and it kills bro its hard to compete with me turn your level up gain down you want need the subsonic at all just work the remote knob
