You can beat them up for not making 'rated power', but we're not talking about how they fair against the box they came in...talking about bang for buck, they are up there. How many guys you know running around talking 5K who barely got 1000 watts rms... Even the big guys overshoot, talk ****...

I'm doing a full Hifonics amp build with the 20 year old stuff (well 18). I have the XI Colossus and 2 XI Zeus amps. American made, class AB, Power hungry, mean *** amps. Then they shipped production to Korea... I would still say they are best bang for your buck in the cheap category...and...

Looks excellent man, cheers from Canada.

I would say your main concern would be clipping. Adjust gains so the sound is not distorted and you'll be fine. Probably worth upgrading when you have the funds to move those woofers to their full potential. With this set up you are only getting 185 watts (max)to each sub (which I will...

Looks good, why do you say you shouldn't have painted it?

I bought one to test out on my project. Engine is not running yet, but I have it in place. I know my car is not 'average', but I have a dual electrical set up just in case the alt. goes. Seperate battery bank is fed off the High Output, single batt and 90 amp alt run the car. Bottom line...

I had a CRX with a single 15 on 1200 watts doing 148.6 with a large enclisure tuned to 32hz....back when 32 was 'really low'. It was mean...and NOT a burp machine, SQ all the way

Jesus...everything is huge!

Well...I spent about 10 months building my box, another little while on building door panels from scratch, and am just finishing my 8" fiberglass kicks...so yup, it takes time when you're in the mindset of doing things properly. And no I don't know it all, but indeed I do more research than...

CAR AUDIO CATFISH This guy is beyond FU€K£D!!! 6x9's??? Really... Anything for a reaction/attention. Ya know what, ****** go for it. 6x9's are an ingenious idea that I am 100% behind. You should have thought of this sooner. And yes, 4 of them. Preferably the 3-way design, so you get all...

If the 10's are single voice coil 4 ohm, then wire parallel and they will be a 2 ohm load. Like you're doing with the 12 dual coils.

To say that these subs will 'cancel each other out' is an amateur view as well, without knowing more details on the system. Instead of telling you that you are a jackass, I would have to ask more questions. How are they being set up? Seperate boxes? 10's in doors? If their being put in the...

I'm not going to say it's impossible, but to properly do a wall, sealed with proper electrical for that power...it's not going to be easily removed...it will be a part of the car. Otherwise, build a proper box - still gonna be a pain to remove give the size/strength you'll require for that...

Agree...in both cases. Looks great otherwise.

People say that is true. And really, when these guys are just air nailing anyways it must be true. (Ever tried to pull 2 pieces apart that are just air nailed with tiny brad nailer? Super easy). If you try this just be sure to glue properly, use lots and spread evenly with a shaping tool of...
