Infinity Basslink SM Underseat Sub

Hi Sifus,

Currently I'm using MBQ 8" underseat sub and for some reason abit itchy to upgrade into something better. I've personally never listen to MBQ prior to purchasing it but so far the sound is ok for the price that i've paid.

So i came across this Infinity Basslink SM/SM2 8" underseat sub with class D amp, both version giving the same power output of 125W RMS. Just wondering if its worth the upgrade into this underseat subs as I've never hear it in real life, but from the videos that i've heard, the sound is quite good (assuming the phone used to capture the video is decent & my speakers were somewhat already flat in terms of Eq).

Or should i just get a custom subwoofer box with separate amp/monoblock instead.

Appreciate everyone's advice here

Hi all, need advice on the following from ICE sifus. Currently im DIY install speaker units for my car. Fronts are using Herts DSK 165.3 which has its own wiring/supplied wire from manufacturer which I may have overlooked during speaker selection process. Currently I have run new wire runs 16AWG OFC cables to all doors since it will be hooked to 70watt RMS x 4 amp. Now the issue is that I have ran the new wiring and now that I realise the Hertz speaker has its own wire and it's alot smaller/thinner than 16awg, from the photo looks 20-22 awg or maybe 24 perhaps?

Crossover wire

Was thinking of soldering the 16Awg wire to the smaller hertz wire and was wondering if there's any issue with it? Since it's diff wire size. Anyone has done it before?

Power wise I think should be no issue as the speaker is designed up to 80W RMS with 160W max power. For rears its a coax so no issue on that.

Why did I run new wires? Well I can't tell which is positive/negative as previous shop didn't label the wire and cut the factory wire sadly. So there's no way for me to know it's polarity except for using one of those SMD devixes (which is quite pricey for one time project)

Appreciate the advice in advance sifus
