How does this sound? Arc/Rainbow setup

probably gonna use an audiocontrol lc6 or lc8 for adding the amps, Arc Kar 400.2 and 1000.2 amps, Rainbow SLC 365 3 way set using factory door locations, and 2 Arc 15d2's sealed in the trunk off the 1000.2.

will change the stock head out for a w200/h701 combo and pick up a 4 channel Kar amp to run active if i get the urge to upgrade.

Why Kar series? Just curious. That's a lotta bass dude.

The VW for sure....errr.....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

me thinks Arc and Rainbow combo will sound quite good... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Kar series offers the most bang for the buck at 2ohm in the arc lineup i think. they have a tiny footprint too and i've yet to hear a bad review. i'd love to have xxk's or foose designs but honestly i doubt my ear can tell a difference. yeah i know 2 15's may be overkill but i don't think i'll have to upgrade these for awhile.

Looks like i'll use the new LC6i with channel summing and all the other features i need.

the LC6 says, "Speaker Level Inputs - Can Accept 400 Watt Signals!" What does that mean? Does it mean that it can give the sub amp only 400 watts

no it means it can accept 400w signals from the factory amp or deck, it has nothing to do with how much power the amps get.
