Members RoboPimp Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 this seems like it might be the comparable sub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soul-x Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Man. I think most options on the market should be pretty good for you then. IMO, the Mackie 15s were a pretty lousy offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoboPimp Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 yeah, that new one above is a MDF/particle board... no thanks the one I posted first impressed me a whole lot more than this yorkville I tried that was extremely unimpressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soul-x Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 the one I posted first impressed me a whole lot more than this yorkville I tried I was speaking of the first one. They weren't very good. I don't have any experience with the Yorkville or the Tapco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jwlussow Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 MRX518 (unpowered) PRX518 or 718 (powered). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members abzurd Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 it's 700 watts I think There are 2 versions. The more powerful version is about as good as you're going to get for the size of the box as far as SPL. Not a great design for the best sounding box, but it has a lot of output. I have 2 sitting in the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Harmonycat Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Anyone have a suggestion? I have a couple of suggestions. 1) An acceptable MI Grade powered sub is an Urban Sub Myth.:poke: 2) Anything small, powered, and decent means PRX518s,Yorkville LS720,LS700P, and such. Thumps are for Chumps, and the LS200P is cute, but not enough sub. If price is concern....think used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dcastar Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Forget the Mackie Thumps... they're awful. QSC KSub or a HPR151/181 would be great for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would too. 30 Hz at -3dB and 117 lbs really isn't that bad for a 21 speaker with a 4.5" voice coil. Pretty darn small box. Found one link for pricing - $3000.

Maybe 122 db measured spl peak max on a good day, going downhill, with the wind behind it. Case and point...... its a great little sub for what it is. I've tried mine next to Yorkie LS720and JBL EON518 and they keep up just fine. You have to decide how much sub you need and choose accordingly.

Members Stingray5 Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 This Sat. I thought I would try running my Proel subs a little different , instead of using the built in xover I used my Samson S3 xover, then like tlbonehead said he runs his subs, with the level set all the way, I thought why not, I'll just run the snot out of these things and see what happens, Holy crap! was I stunned these things just floored me.I'm so glad tlbonehead found these little Jewels!, I couldn't be happier.Here is how I ran the setup, maybe, it is not the right way, but to keep the keyboard player out of the sub since he likes to play Bass lines which means stepping on me, something I can't stand. Anyway I run everything paned left except Bass and kick which is paned right. I run from the left side of the mixer to the crossover and take the high out to the tops, then the right to the crossover low out from there to the subs, This time I thought I'll pan a little kick to the left or tops for a little attack man what a difference. I love these little things. I will be the first to admit there are better subs out there but for $ 450.00 apiece these rock.Enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
