Bronze Member Username: RedjayyPost Number: 25 Registered: Aug-09 | Hey guys, I'm planning on getting a AQ HDC315-A, and power it with a AudioQue 1200d. Im just wondering if you can help me figure out what specs to build my box to. This is my first system and I'm a bit unsure if what I'm doing on the RE website is right. Could yall just give me some ideas on what size and port volume I'll need. Also could you just give me some feedback on AudioQue as a company. Thanks |
