[QUOTE="OGButch, post: 363813, member: 551874"] I really apprecaite all your help on the system, but I have a few more questions. I have looked at a lot of the system components ngsm13 sugjested. I like what I have read about the XXX and the Magnum D2 (even though it is on backorder), and I have decided to go sealed enclosure. I have a few questions? The first questions I have is if I use the HiFonics BX1500D (1500 watts at 1 ohm) amp to drive the XXX and the US Acoustic 4085 (340 watts) I think I will need a new alternator for my civic, and maybe even a yellow top battery. Is this true? If so where do I get the alternator, how many amps will it need to generate and how much will it cost? What if I decide to go with the HiFonics BX1000D (1000 watts at 1 ohm) to drive the Magnum D2 which I think gets 500 watts from this amp since it is a 2 ohm sub. Will 850 watts require a new alternator? and a yellow top battery? I want this system to be for SQ for the most part. Will this sytem do the job or it more or an SPL system. System Components: Head Unit: Alpine CDA-7998 $555 Enclosure: SubZone Z-Series 12" Sealed Enclosure $165 Sub: RE XXX 12" $370 Rear Speakers: CDT CL6X $43 Front Speakers: CDT HD62 $200 Amps: HiFonics BX1500D $315 US Acoustics USX4085 $175 Sound Dampening $120 Wires and Connectors $ 250 Total= $2193 (Plus Alternator?, Yellow top?) Or Different sub and amp Sub: Magnum D2 $270 Amp: Hifonics BX1000D $239 Total= $2018 (Plus Alternator?, Yellow top?) Just out of curiosity, what do you think of JL Audio, Focal, and Diamond as far as speakers, subs, and amps? [/QUOTE]
