1.5k to play with. what would you do?

When i first started workin on the stereo in my truck, i wanted to knock out my mid and highs first. now that im happy with my deck, and speakers, i desperately need to upgrade my substage.
most my equipment was given to me, so its pretty lame. (don't judge lol) (this is all the stuff i learned on)

but right now i have an autotech street machines 150x2 (bridged) pushin a sony xplode 400watt? (red one) 12.

So far i know i want to run a sundown SAZ 1500d. I like that size, cause i won't have to do major electric work. I want to run that sundown and 1-2 yellow tops.

my delima is i don't know what subs.

at first i thought id be happy with just a real solid, reliable sub that wasn't going to melt at that power lol

but now i kinda want to bang real loud, and rattle the **** out of everythingg when i want to crank it up.

what im thinkin -

i saw a deal on an SAZ 1500d + 15 nightshade for 900.

or an audioque hdc315

or i might be lazy and get 4 alpine type r's 12's or somthin.

i dig DD audio too.

so i guess its either a nasty 15 or 12, or a bunch of smaller, 400watt 12's or somthin.

btw its an extended cab silverado, with no backseat.

thanks

i'm doing 3 10w6v2's off 1500 watts of JBL just as soon as i can get satisfied with a box design.

yes ssa.com is legit, its the best place to buy mach 5 in the US.

sundown makes good amps, but you can get the power at a lower price if you look elsewhere or are willing to buy used. Depends on how much you are willing to spend.

i just bought the SAZ 2000d for 465 at ssa.com. brand new

so i think it was a good snag

nightshade 15 vs nightshade 18?

what would be the difference besides the obvious?

would the 18 be sloppier?

18's rare just as snappy as 10's if they are in the right box. one nightshade 18 in a good box will be hell for that truck to handle much less youre ears imo

how does the z15 sound compared to the nightshades?

you can get an audioque 2200d for $389shipped from AQ and a DC lvl 4 XL $385shipped from DC so $774total. also two sd 2.5s with that aq amp would be nice

how does the aq 2200d compare to the saz 2000d?
