So, my project isn't exactly a normal or standard one. I'm taking an antique floor-standing radio, and I'm retrofitting it. I'm putting a computer in the top of it, and I'm mounting a couple of 6x9's that I have laying around, and installing a couple of amplifiers in the cabinet. That still leaves LOTS of room for a subwoofer.
I have an opportunity to grab one on the cheap if I act quick - either a Hertz Dieci 12" (the DS30.3 model - DS 30.3 - Hertz Dieci car audio subwoofers) for $88 (Canadian), or a Hertz Hi-Energy 10" (HX 250 - Hertz HiEnergy car audio subwoofers) for $150.
This project doesn't have to have the most outstanding sound, but I would like it to be reasonably solid. It also doesn't have to have the absolutely hardest hitting bass - but I want it to be competent, not just for music, but also for movies.
I know that the High-Energy line is the higher end line. Does the Dieci 12 have any advantages over the High-Energy 10 other than price? Which one is going to handle going low better than the other? Are there any points between the two that you would suggest I consider?
Thanks for your time!
