Good sounding wall build for 149.9? General Discussion, Throw me ideas!

[SPLluminator 10+ year member]

Hey guys, im ready to get another system, 9 months is wayyy to long to go without. Ive already ordered 2 new IA 20.1's for the build. Im looking for you guys to do what u you best, throw me some ideas. Im into bassracing as I like a good sounding system that I can still compete with. Id like to stick around or under 600ish for the subs.

For this budget im wondering if it would be better to just go for cone area. Maybe 8+ 10's in a wall. It would cut down on cost and also most likely allow me to compete in 149.9. Otherwise my options are pretty much cut to 2 used 18's or maybe 4 used 15's(this is the same setup i used in a previous wall). Also, Im not quite set on a car yet but I need to buy one within the next week. I cannot find any Geo Metro's in the area but that is the car id like to wall most. If there are other cars that would be just as suitable for a wall im open to suggestions. Thanks guys! I cant wait to bump again.

Id like to be louder than my old system. And I like to tune low, my last one was at 27hz

why doesn't anyone wall with 12's?

you could fit 6 12s instead of 4 15s you'd have like 20% more surface area pushing air.

w/e it's your wall.

See I wanted to run 18 8"s but the SA 8's are a little out of my price range to do that lol. Maybe rockford P2 8's or something. I think it would look sick havin 18 subs movin all at once. Although wiring would be a bit of a ***** but worth it.

P2 8's are $75 on sonic, woofercooker sells them for $85 a piece (SA-8's). i imagine he could cut you a deal if you're buying 18..

Id try to do it right but **** happens when your installing and not everything always goes as planned. Id like a little more cone area to increase my chances of being able to bassrace some low tunes. Ideally id like to be bassracing

Yea not gonna do boss's. I think i like the idea of 8 10's. I just have to find 10's that will handle 400-500 rms and are around 75 bucks or less. Shouldnt be too hard. Anyone have suggestions? Preferably not boss audio lol. You can suggest it, but im not going to run them
