[QUOTE="cablguy184, post: 7726412, member: 626633"] I like the whole RTA thing you're going for ... But its the judges ears that counts if you want to compete. My suggestion would be to sit and listen very carefully in several SQ vehicles (expecially Herman's truck) at competitions and get a good idea of what the stage and image should be like in your vehicle ... Just my suggestion bro ... I (if I was to have a console enclosure) would have the port AND the Driver facing forward to enhance the "Up Front" and "On the Dash" bass response ... I bet your enclosure is going to sound great, but you will hear bass behind you in competition, which will cost you in points ... I have the feeling you will actually have to "Time Align" your sub bass ... Again, just my suggestion bro ... then again, may turn out great !!! Trial and error ... This I know VERY well !!! Having amps that give high headroom will help you out better cause you can run little to no gain on them ... less headroom will make you turn up gains (nothing to do with distortion here) and cause hiss in the system ... This is the reason I was asking about the amps ... From what I get out of Sound Quality The human ear is the best tool to judge Sound Quality ... even keep-hope-alive will agree with me on that ...
