    what subs will bump better than rockfords

    Mark_ab is certainly right. 29 Juggys would be insane. I'm sure you could hear that more than a mile away. Seriously, 1 Juggy 15" would probably be louder than 2 power HX2s. How about DD 9512s, brahmas, or the RE HC and XXX. The Juggy (MMATS Juggernaut) would be cool because not many...

    Does anyone remember..

    Just wonding if anyone remembers the old Rockford power series speakers. I just installed a pair of RFR-1404 mids in my car. They replaced a blown pair or MB Quart RSB 100 mids. Those Rockfords are the beefiest mids I have ever seen. The magnet is way bigger than the basket. It looks really...

    MA Audio HardKore 15" Sub

    Never heard one, but they look pretty sweet. One of my friends has an MA Audio 12 in a ported box. It's a mid level model, but it's quite loud. I think the magnet is about 200 oz. My personal opinion is that the power handling figures quoted on MA's website are a little optomistic, but who...

    What Subs Should I Get... ?

    How about 4 RE SE 12s. I think you can get them for about $200 each. Or you could get 2 or 3 12" or 15" Brahmas. 3 of them would be over $1000, but not by much. You might also want a new amp. Nothing wrong with the 8100D, but it wouldn't push those subs to the limit. I saw a bunch of...

    Soundstream or Mainstream???

    Go with Soundstream. I've only heard 2 of their amps, one of the original Tarantula 2000 watt monters and a four channel Rubicon, and they both sounded fantastic. I'd bet you'd be more than satisifed with a Tarantula

    2 or 4 Ohms?

    2 ohms. Don't turn the gain down too much, 600 watts shouldn't hurt the sub if your careful.

    4 Brahmas...

    That's going to be insane. One of my friends has two Brahma 12s each powered by a D2. I think they are in 2 cubic foot ported boxes. What kinda amps are you gonna run?

    bp600.1: is it good?

    Actually that 90 db number is the signal to noise ratio. In other words, how much noise the amplifier produces during amplification. This noise is audible as a hiss. 90 db isn't great for a class AB amp, but it's fine for a class D amp. I've heard these, and the I assure you that you won't...

    will this be enough power?

    You were right in a sense, streetrod. Often times when people "underpower" their speakers they have the gain up too high, thus sending a clipped signal. This clipped signal is going to be a wave with the top and bottom "clipped" off. Underpowering speakers with these square waves is...

    memphis subs? any good??

    I've never heard the Mojo, but they're supposed to be good.

    opinions on these subs

    You could get a pair of 10" or 12" Brahmas for about $700. Those should still sound good, but they'd have more SPL. One of my friends has a Brahma 12 in his jeep powered by a Soundstream TARANTULA (one bad A$$ amp, wish I had one). It's really loud. I know many people don't like planet...

    What amp(s) to run with a pair of 12" Brahmas

    How about the new DD amps? It'd be cool to have a DD amp. The're probably very expensive, though. Also, isn't Earthquake coming out with something new (D3 or D4)? It will probably sound better than the D2. I'm sure I will catch some $hit for saying this, but the loudest daily driver I've...

    Dream Cars!!!!!!

    How about a Shelby Cobra 427 S/C? 427 cubes and 2500 pounds should add up to one sweet ride. Kinda pricey though, a mint original goes for about $500,000.00

    Anti-ricer!!!

    Okay, It's tough for a 2 valve V-8 to match the specific output of a high revving 4 cylinder, but small 4 bangers aren't the way to get big power. Look at John Lingenfelter's Corvettes. These use the "old tech" LS1 and LS6 engines (superb pieces of engineering by GM). I don't know if ayone...

    domestic or import

    How about a Panoz AIV with the optional blower. That's almost 400 hp for only 2600 pounds. Plus you get Panoz's expertise in high performance chassis and suspension work. They certainly know what they're doing judging by their endurance racing success. I know there are more powerful cars...
