I'm lookin for a set of subs that will do well with 1k to 1500rms. Lookn for nice sql, that will pick up the lows good. Goin in the trunk of a Grand Prix. Not lookin to spend a whole lot, but I can save up. Also, I need an amp to go w/ them. I have a 4kw, but I decided I'm going with a smaller set up b/c I dont want to have alot invested into the electrical upgrades that come along with it. I need somethin thats gunna b loud b/c my friend has a 9918(soon to be RD SHW 18") w/ a Memphis 4kw and he fu<ks my world up when it comes to systems.
This is a friend of mine., Ima do an install for him, but I wanna kno yalls opinions tho, whats sumn that gets loud w/ low power. Most electrical upgrades we'll end up doin to the car is maybe an extra battery. So far the best option is my old pair of SSI 15s, but I think they'll need more power.
Well you won't be as loud as an 18" SHW with 1500rms, but you can get something very nice.
I will be running a 12" alpha with a SAZ-1500D. You won't be hitting 155 db's daily, but you could have a nice sounding daily setup that plays in the mid 140's.
I kno I wont be quite that loud. Im just sayin with a budget of about 800 for subs and amp what do you think is my best option, I may be able to do like a Max of 2k rms. Im lookin for 2 12s or 2 15s.
not gunna do Fi. Just out of the fact that I've never jumped on the whole Fi deal. AQ is a definite possibility. It's what I originally thought would b best in the power range, and I kno brad recommended em to me for 500 watts on one, so id say they could hander 750 each prolly. He was originally wantn sum DDs like my last ones, but doesn't wanna blow the money on an alt...so i told him he'd prolly fry a 4kw runnin it permanently w/o one. What's a good amp that will do 1500ish at 1ohm, that doesn't draw too much current?
so he wants to run 1.5krms on a grand prix alt? i was runnin 600rms in my GP and although i didnt get any dimming, im runnin 1200 in my trailblazer (which has a bigger alt) and im getting dimming so id stay right at 1000rms if i were you
well the alt upgrade i HIGHLY doubt will happen. And 1k is just not gunna b enough, so 1.5-2k is wats gunna happen most likely. prolly 1 extra battery to maybe smooth it out a lil bit. For $50 theres a guy who rebuilds alts, and can "beef it up". He's going to prolly try that and see if we can maybe get 120a or so range.
jus found a 160a alt on ca.com for 110 shipped, i think he guna get that....so maybe even more power possible now How much u think we could get by w/ runnin a 160a alt, and HC1800 batt in the back.
