[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8076099, member: 650438"] I have tested each hooking them up individually up on my amp and tested each out at 2 ohms 1100 rms, with individual hz test tones, hz sweeps and music in general. the pioneer pretty much hits only the lows(25-40hz) which is great when i listen to rap and dubstep but when it comes to rock and metal, and electro, progressive house, the alpines did a lot better with the higher bass(40-125hz) frequencies but pales in comparison to the pioneers when it comes to the lows, whereas the pioneers had literally no 70-125hz response. Its wierd but both subs sound different musically but when paired together i get a full range response music sounds really nice with a good punch but just not loud as i would like. but rather than selling one to buy a matching one, i'd rather put that money into buy some good end goal Subs like two SSA Gcons or Zcons or sundown z-12 v.3s. Thats why i'd rather do my electricals and alternator first so my car is ready to handle the future power demands. I'm also not sure how much of a strain would it put on my alternator if i added another amp rated around 1k rms @ 2ohms to run both seperately. As for 2nd battery, would i be able to save money and get away with it with this?
