[QUOTE="mr_naler, post: 8225247, member: 655823"] I am thinking about doing a little budget build for fun. I currently have 2 DC lvl 4 10s, with XL soft parts and such. I am running them on an AB PH4000MD. They sound really nice in a 2.3ft^3 box tuned to 33Hz. They smash the low notes, and roll off pretty smoothly into the mid 50s. My problem is that I need more power, like double my current amount. This is going to necessitate a new alt, another battery, and more wiring. This is going to take some time to do right, and with work picking up, I won't have a whole lot of time. I want to stick something in there that will give me a good amount of bass, and get decently loud on only 750-1000 watts RMS. Something my current electrical setup can handle. I have a big 3 kit on the way, AGM under the hood, 1/0 CCA Sky High run from the battery to a distribution block in the trunk, and stock 130A alternator. With that in mind, I want to spend as little as possible on the subs and amplifier. I was thinking possibly four cheap 8" subs(by cheap I mean less than $50). I don't really want to spend more than $200 on whatever subs I buy. I can get a Sundown SAX-1200 pretty cheap, so I may do that. Anyhow, I could use some suggestions as to how best make this work. Also the box has to be rather small. 19x30x13 is what I have to work with. Also, note that I am not aiming for ridiculously high db numbers. Just something loud for what it is, on music. [/QUOTE]
