I'm wondering how this would sounds for the money

[Curse 10+ year member]

Well I've lurked on the forums for a while now and so i have to ask how this would sound, and if there is a better way to get more bang for my buck. I'm looking at a budget of approximately $650.

2 RE se 12" : 330

1 US AMP MD-1D : 250

enclosure will be around 100-150 more than likely.

Suggestions/thoughts? I'm new so I'm not exactly the most knowledgeable person on the subject.

it would sound fine, with a nice enclosure. thats about 500 watts per sub, may want to go ported if you can fit it

I was thinking ported, not exactly sure of the box specs beyond that as i haven't measured my trunk. Driving a 2000 Acura TL, but i doubt anyone knows the measurements of that car off the top of their head.

i have a tsx so i have a good idea. me personally i would go 2 cube per sub,tuned to30hz or so

haha weird coincidence. So ideally, Ported and 4 cubes tuned to lets just say 30hz?

Well it seems unanimous that it will sound good. any ideas on how to better spend the money? im not necessarily set on any part of the setup

i like the setup you have. it might be nice to have 1200-1500 watts worth of amp though, but what you picked out will sound darn nice in a good box.

i did have the thought of a higher wattage amp instead of the one i picked, but I'm not familiar with what company amps are good and which aren't, but i would love a nice 1500 watt amp around the same price. Suggestions?

Also, over heating is a slight issue. Summer here in Tempe, Arizona. Meaning 120 degree days, pretty consistently. So that was another factor in the amp i picked, looked like it wouldn't over heat, but i may be wrong.
