Thinking of installing a bass tube in my Matrix. Comparing Audiobahn or Bazooka, which is the better one?

Although i'd highly recommend AudioBahn over Bazookas subwoofer wise, in this case i'd reccomend the bazookas, they've dominated that arena for a reason...if you plan on getting a box though, AB.

MAX RMS FOR A BAZOOKA IS 200RMS, THE LEAST YOU CAN FIND ON AN AUDIOBAHN IS 400RMS..I THINK THE AUDIOBAHN BASS TUBE, YOU CAN SWITCH THE WOOFER, WERE AS THE BAZOOKAS ARE PERMANENT......

Don't go bass tube!!! please don't!

If you have to get something small or whatever get an Infinity Basslink. It's a 10" sub in there. 8" tube subs won't reach as low frequencies as you'd like. Plus they don't get very loud either.

Go audiobahn it costs more but it is well worth it. With the right power amp you will sound like you got 3g worth of equip. Plus i had a bazooka and blew within 3mo. it can't handle power and it doesn't sound no where close to a audiobahn sub.

I blew my bazooka el1204, with only 300rms,,shitty subwoofer..

Audiobahn's got some ugly grills though! haha

Any of you got pictures of your system that you can post? I want to see how the Trix looks with the Bass Tube. Thx.

Just registered to respond to this thread.

The Audiobahn tubes are worth the money. They sound better than most people think. The new models have a built in amp which is plenty to get it going quick and easy. The driver itself is not replaceable with another sub.

The Bazooka is lower quality by far. Apparently they aren't bad for the money, but you have to factor in how much you're spending. The sound quality will be inferior to the Audiobahn.

As mentioned before the Infinity Basslink is another great option. Better SQ and less SPL.

If it's anything like the rest of the stuff they make, I'd avoid it.
