Are you doing just one or a pair? Even at 3k if you're doing a pair i'd just go with the X's. Zv4's and 5's both are rated in the 2k range and are grossly under rated. But if it's only one sub, then i'd do the Zv4

It's ok to be ignorant to how all of this stuff works. To make what they are saying more undersandable, distortion is what is frying your subs, also called clipping an amp, square waves, ect ect. Every amp has it's limits from where it goes from clean power, to distorted power. It's just like...

As stated i have some TS35oo series 10's. I would like to recone them. Does Sundown offer anything that would work good with these baskets and motors?

While i don't agree as much with other posters on how subs didn't handle as much by a drastice margin back in the day (Kove Armeggedons for example) there is truth to that. But, to put it simply, 2 15's in a slightly oversized box with plenty of port area will destroy 6 15's done wrong in too...

Did you use the proper GM databus wiring harness?

Ugh, working at a shop makes deals not deals for me. lol, good luck with sale

Aftermarket radio's will say they are 50 watts per channel, they aren't. Don't get too caught up in that.

Just buy a Pac or Audiocontrol LOC, they both have built in remote turn ons. No need for a glorified processor.

We sell Skar in the shop i do some sidework/contracting work for. I made fun of them regularly using the term that became popular on here because of their shady dealings early on in their lifespan. I will tell you, it's not bad stuff. Would i put it in the same realm as Sundown, DD, DC? Heck no...

I would simply respectfully explain that the equipment they have is not for car audio, and would more than likely not work well and probably sound terrible and you would prefer they have someone else install it if they are hell bent on using it.

How are your subs wired up? If they are dual 2 ohm woofers then your options for wiring is either .5 ohms or 2 ohms. My guess is it's probably set up series parallel to yeild 2 ohms mono. If so, you need to buy an amp that is built for it's best output @ 2 ohms mono. Most mono amps (1 channel)...

So a little update. The 10's are still going strong, no one that hears my truck believes that they are 10's and that it isn't a blowthrough and that loud. So anyways, i'm probably going to be doing a blow through in the next couple weeks and am putting 2 ZV5 18's in the bed and will be adding...

The kick panels are Qlogic. They fit okay and look decent.

Sundown X15 would be perfect for your power. They have sick subs. Other than that, maybe a DD 3500 15? There are tons of options, especially with many newer less known companies which a lot of users on here rave about.

Hey dude, long time no talk. I see you've changed stuff dramatically and it looks pretty awesome. First, ignore the haters on your batteries, you can never have enough juice in these kinds of systems. Second, those amps look sick *** hell, i bet they are beasts. Third, you should check out the...
