Silver Member Username: SplmonsterNowhere, OH USA Post Number: 759 Registered: May-06 | if i got that sundown amp would i need to add a second battery, because thats what im tryin to stay away from because i need to keep it cheap as possible. but do u think the extra sq is worth not being as loud as the bl... what im trying to say lol is would the extra sq make up that much for the loss of spl? |

Silver Member Username: Mike11202DE US Post Number: 293 Registered: Nov-06 | I just have a yellow top D34 under the hood while running much over 1450rms on the Q and 400rms on the front speakers and its fine get an alternator instead of a new battery unless your playing music witht the car off get the battery the Q has much more excursion than the bl and it sounds awesome.. mine gets plenty loud http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v407/mike11202/?action=view¤t=MOV05440.f lv http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v407/mike11202/?action=view¤t=MOV05441.f lv |

Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 528 Registered: Feb-06 | First off, I am not sure exactly how much louder a BL would get, but I doubt it would be that much louder than the Q. I highly doubt it would be anything that would make a huge difference in ouput, and added SQ is always a big bonus. Anyone can buy a sub that will get crazy loud and not sound that great. But one that gets loud and sounds great is a much better choice. And the Sundown is a very efficient amp. For the amount of current it draws you would be tough pressed to find a more efficient amp to put out around 1000rms for either of those two subs. |

Silver Member Username: SplmonsterNowhere, OH USA Post Number: 760 Registered: May-06 | yea all i listen to is rap and r&b occasionally so i really want them lows, i think ill just go with the q and tune like 30-32 |
