[QUOTE="USAFbro, post: 7284726, member: 628506"] Ok. Im 16, and just got my first car, and my license. Everyone at school has these setups with Kicker Cvr 12"s in prefabs wired to like 16 ohms lol. Im doing my homework before i try and get a setup. I know how much you all hate when people dont give info about music preference and car type so here ya go. 2001 Ford Taurus ses - NO sound deadening - Big 3 1/0 - No H.O alt or batteries... YET. - 4 Rockford Fosgate 5X7 p1752 (good mid bass, if it matters) on a Hifonics HIFI 100.4 (I set the gain so it only gives off 65 RMS, so it isn't clipping) I have trunk dimensions of - Width - 37" Height (sealed from trunk (rear deck height)) - 16" Height (in the trunk) - 19" Depth - 30" I listen to just about everything, from old school Aerosmith to Young Jeezy. But ive come to realize that i have a LOW bass fetish lol. The kickers and Jl's I hear everyday just don't give me what i would like. What Iv'e been looking at - I WANT ACCEPTABLE SOUND QUALITY. AND NOT A 50Hz FART MACHINE. I really like the idea of having 2 SSA XCON 12''s sealed off from trunk. Tuned to like 27 HZ on a TRUE 3000 watt amp, and built to specs box. I can fit just about 8 cubes sealed, and about 6 ported in my trunk. Question - Will these subs and box setup give me the low, brain shaking bass that i really want, and still get loud enough to show off? Iv'e never heard a well configured system before, so im hoping this will be enough for my first system. What do you guys think? Should I look at some other subs? Would I be able to fit a low tuned box in my trunk? And would sealing it off make a big difference in sound? And could someone recommend a great 3000 watt amp? I was thinking sundown 3500, but I would like other suggestions. Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
