Monday, October 20, 2008 - 02:23 GMT do you have a HO alt? cuz that amp needs a good alt and battery. your box seems perfect, if its a well built box... whats the VC config on the subs? i think you need more power to run those subs

I also found an old school hifonics XX collosus 3200 watt amp for $500 brand new should I jump on that too" Daily with tones or daily with music? It would be very hard to do 145 with music on 3kw and 1 or even 2 15". If your going for sq or sql it wont happen.

Tuesday, October 21, 2008 - 17:18 GMT the xxx 15 and aq hdc15 can't be compared.. they hold true to different purposes if you like very bright highs get those focals if not i'd change that idea up.. go wit hthe rockford if you can afford it.. more power is nice to have.. can't go wrong with either choice amp you selected though daily wanting to play 145s.. tune to at least 35hz.. if you don't want that xxx link me and ill buy it
