Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14032 Registered: Oct-05 | since i am all into sq these days, i want the best sound possible. so here is my idea. get a set of dynaudio 360gt (3 way components). use my kicker amp to power that since it does 450+wrms x 2. then buy a jl 1000/1 to power my rl-s. what do you guys think? |

Gold Member Username: BernymacBME, BernyMac Edi... Post Number: 3032 Registered: Sep-04 | Nice choice =). Its always fun to experiment. Imma try out rainbow and see what all the glory is all about. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14033 Registered: Oct-05 | i don't want to spend too much money dru. i can get the dynaudio for about $800. unless you guys can suggest me some nicer ones for around that much. |
Gold Member Username: BernymacBME, BernyMac Edi... Post Number: 3033 Registered: Sep-04 | CDT is pricey. Plus these other companies can offer more for less. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14035 Registered: Oct-05 | i've always wanted to try the dynaudio since long time ago. actually since i saw that jonathan and glasswolf uses them. |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16Post Number: 670 Registered: May-07 | i know they are... i just wanna see them in action, i guess i'll just have to get them |

Gold Member Username: JakeyplaysbassSt. Louis, MO Post Number: 1839 Registered: Jul-05 | In my opinion dyn walks all over CDT. The 360s are some of the nicest speakers i've ever heard, there extremely smooth sounding. Its a good call using the kicker amp on them because it will actually show them some real power. A 3way set like this is going to be all install if you want it to sound good tho, but i know you already know that! my vote is to do it. |
Bronze Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 40 Registered: May-07 | With components there alot of diffrent choices and many are about equal. What makes them sound excellent or just OK is the Install and staging. Also the Power behind them and RCA's. Of course there are Bad/OK/Good/Better/Best but its all in what you do with them in building out the doors or kicks. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14036 Registered: Oct-05 | what do you think will have more power at 3ohms? jl 1000/1 1000wrms @ 1.5-4ohms or kicker zx1500.1 1550wrms @ 2ohms |

Gold Member Username: BernymacBME, BernyMac Edi... Post Number: 3034 Registered: Sep-04 | 1033.3332RMS on that Kicker amp @ 3ohms Chad. |
Gold Member Username: BernymacBME, BernyMac Edi... Post Number: 3035 Registered: Sep-04 | Chad, how much power does that sx do at 2ohms? or w/e its rated at, and I can figure out how much your getting right now. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14037 Registered: Oct-05 | the rating is 1060wrms bridged @ 4ohms. also reece the focals are good as sold. my friend is taking the focal and jl 450/4 package for $600. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14038 Registered: Oct-05 | btw berny the zx1500.1 does 1700wrms at 2ohms so re calculate please. |
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 4776 Registered: Jan-06 | i would get another sx900.2 for your sub that way both amps match. and post a pic of what your doors look like i want to see how youve been fitting a 3 way set in that little accord. |
Gold Member Username: BernymacBME, BernyMac Edi... Post Number: 3036 Registered: Sep-04 | freakin chad, you know I want that 450/4. Why you never throw any deals at me, thats so wrong . Your friend doesn't even use it :\ |

I like matching amps.... but i like JL slash over kicker... or zapco 8) hell why dont you just run helix or brax lol. but really... maybe consider these http://www.mobilesq.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=27_50_52_55&products_id=131 in the race or these http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=5543 or these http://www.zapco.com/prod/Speakers/Comp/2_CK-16.2_Frame.htm I was talking to a guy at a shop once and he said he was in love with JL ZR components until he heard Zapco's high end components... he said they made the ZRs sound stupid. idk i just thought I would throw a couple out there. Some of you may laugh at the Polk SRs but they actually are very, very good, well says experienced people lol, i have not heard them. oh, btw, the zapcos can be found on woofersetc for 550 |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14040 Registered: Oct-05 | trevor if i am gonna do 2 way i'd rather keep my utopias. i am more than happy with them. i want to try a 3 some though. also the i don't want to go overboard on getting amps cause the kicker sx models sound good enough. i am not out to win any sq awards. just cleanest i can have for daily without spending alot of money. |

Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 11759 Registered: Jul-05 | idea in ur original post i think its excellent once the dyn can handle the power i remember i suggesting u get jl 1000\1 a couple wks ago ....... |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14048 Registered: Oct-05 | yeah rovin. its a big difference with the jl 1000/1 than with the sx900.2. i just got done installing the 1000/1 i borrowed from my friend and it pounds even louder and cleaner. i am using the sx900.2 for my comps. this amp is amazing for the component speakers. |
Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 11762 Registered: Jul-05 | ^^^very wise move to burrow his to see - u damn asians r always smart ppl ........ |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSQ = SoundSplinter RL-s Post Number: 14049 Registered: Oct-05 | lol rovin. he let me borrow it until i get my new amp. gonna be running a mmats 2000.1 |
Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 11763 Registered: Jul-05 | ...^^^ NOOOOOO ! - dont buy any new model mmats amps been looking @ how bare the boards has been looking lately & how their built quality has been gone downhill just last wk i was talking to a guy who had gotten a bad 3500d mmats (2700wrms @ 1ohm) & when he opened it up it looked so poorly built so he & a mmats dealer friend of his opened up a few other new amps same model & all looked cheap with that 3ohms coil u got there i would say the JL would be best @ least in theory or if u could get ur hands on a PG xenon 1200.1 which like the JL can handle various ohm loads ....... |
