Ahhh, I had it in my head that it was 1 ohm stable for some reason.

I appreciate the new posts but I'm really just asking the questions in my most recent response :)

Hi! It's me again. I bet you're wondering how I got in this position... lol So, I've had the Kicker CXA1800.1 sitting in my office for 2 months. I'm about to make my purchase on subs and a box. I was searching the internet just in case.... I didnt want to miss any options. And I came across...

Sorry, I typed that earlier. The CXA1800.1 is in my possession now Of course, now yall got me worried about power draw. :)

So, I found a good deal on a CXA1800.1 locally. It's in great shape and the guy is a car audio enthusiast, he even kept the box. I'm gonna pick that up for cheaper than a new CXA1200.1. I'll probably pair it with the dual L7S enclosure, even though it puts the total out of my budget. I'll just...

Ok, and this is a wild question, but... I want to be able to pull the subs out for a conversion between beach cruiser/ daily driver and road tripper that needs cargo space. I'm thinking I'm going to mount my amp behind my sidewall, add a terminal on the wall, use banana plugs on my speaker...

I'm probably going to stay kicker, but I have a question. Two Kicker L7S or One Kicker L7R?

Thanks for the detailed links! Gives me a lot to think about. I do love Polk. I had some Polk 10s and mids/highs in an older build and they sounded fantastic and never gave me issues. Obviously you wouldn't recommend CT if you didn't believe in them, but whats their story? Mid level comparable...

The higher end NVX subs look great, but I'm worried about the power draw. Not only does it put me over budget but I don't wanna murder my alternator. lol

being a numbers nerd, I'm working on a spreadsheet with some options based on feedback here and my own exploration. The PPI subs look like ass so don't mind that tab. Cant find any feedback on them, but figured if the amps were recommended... Totally Nerdy Bronco Priceout Spreadsheet

How is NVX overall? Compared to something like Kicker?

Interesting @ top off. Didn't consider that... ported definitely moves more air, I just don't want the lag I've had in the past with a ported setup. LIstening to house music its like the kick happens after the song has already moved on. What are your thoughts on prefab boxes? obviously it...

2023 4 door wildtrak Keep existing HU (its a 12" screen) Rear door speakers, yes. All mids/highs in the vehicle. I'm fine giving up half the cargo area or more. I added budget to the original post. As for the B&O, I don't mind the quality of the mids and highs. It's the lack of volume. I may...

Hi everyone! I'm meh with car audio. Some experience but don't know a ton. Would love some advice and feedback. Looking to upgrade the system in my Bronco. Right now it has the B&O sound system with one of the worst subs I've ever heard. The mids and highs are weak (Especially with the top...

Thanks. I'm gonna go with a ported 12. I more than doubled my budget for it and gonna go something midrange. I won't lose any trunk space, only the spare. If I end up only adding some low end, I'm okay with that. The woofers in the doors are nowhere near low enough to round out the sound.
