Monday, March 14, 2005 - 01:49 GMT ? with 800 watts each in a P4S double shot box? does having 2 12's really make that much of a difference or would i be better off with 1 15?

Monday, March 14, 2005 - 01:56 GMT just get 1 12 .... way less pressure on your charging system and it will be plenty loud.... if i turn mine up all the way I cant even sit in the car, so i dont know what could make you want 2 unless you just really want to show off or compete.....on top of that it wont be all that much louder and it will be a lot more expensive

Monday, March 14, 2005 - 04:14 GMT first of all thank you for your input the only reason I would be thinking of getting 2 is the amp that i can get from my cousin is a soundstream 1600/2 and so i could powere both of them easily. erik, what kind of box do you have yours in?

Monday, March 14, 2005 - 04:18 GMT instead of getting 2 of that sub the 400 you will spend on the 2nd spend on a great instlall and a great box like an ss box, but if you do get 2 wow..that would just hurt, but it will only add about 3 dbs i think

Monday, March 14, 2005 - 04:23 GMT yea subfanatic, i was planning on going with a p4s box. that was the one thing that i set my mind on when i started my system haha i was even thinking about getting 2 crystal 8's in a DS a little while ago, but i thought the spl would be weak so i went with the eclipse's will i get a dramatic increase in spl if i leave my 6x9's out and use the holes as ports to the cabin? thanks yall for your input again

Wednesday, March 16, 2005 - 08:25 GMT the combo is working great...it gets very loud with the amp turned down and the sub control on about 25% and volume about half way up lol you will be happy most people think jbl ams are good for the money in this forum..... its a solid amp imo and it looks nice as well
