[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7814943, member: 573547"] Do you want Competition SPL? or do you want daily driver with good sound levels that take into consideration efficiency and distortion?? [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=1-Find"]#1-Find[/URL] the Amplifier power you need to accomplish your goals. If you just want solid, clean and efficient rated power, Plan a system that will operate at 2 ohms or 4ohms. Depending on the brand you decide on, Some amps are identified by their 1ohm rms rating, this is a decent indicator of stable build quality. [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=2-Plan"]#2-Plan[/URL] the Electrical upgrades needed (if any), then locate and acquire the upgrade items you will need. [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=3-"]#3-[/URL] once you have electrical figured out and what type of power you will use, the it is time to find subs that will fulfill system goals and fit the space you have. [B]Good subs are a dime a dozen[/B], and should be the least of your worries at this stage in the game. Too many ppl come here and get duped into buying a pair of high dollar D4 subs, then have to buy a dirty and inefficient el cheapo amp to run at 1ohms. Because they spent their money on the subs and neglected efficiency and SQ, they end up spending a small fortune in electrical upgrades alone. [/QUOTE]
