And that's the truth.
The system:
Sub - Audioque SDC2.5 15"
Sub Amp - Audiopipe AP15001D
Front Stage - Polk db651 coaxials
Front Stage Amp - Pioneer GM-3300T
Power Wire: Knu 4ga (subs), Scosche 6ga (front stage)
Well I guess I'll start at the beginning.
About three years ago, I decided to buy these subs:
I bought them because I thought they were *****in', and because I didn't know jack about subs. They suited my needs and I loved them, plus Circuit City was selling them for about $200 (which I thought was cheap for subs).
About six months ago, I started actually researching car audio and found out that Xplod's are some of the worst subs you can get
. So, I sold them, and my amp, and started looking for a new system.
I spent about three months researching different brands and learning what makes subs good/bad, etc. I decided on an Audioque SDC2.5 series. I wanted a huge sub (compared to my old Xplods), so I decided on a 15".
Since I'm not working my seasonal job anymore, this sub was perfect because it was on sale for $160. I purchased it in December and had it sitting around in my room until March, when I finally spent some of my savings and bought a new amplifier to power it.
Well enough of the talking. Onto the pictures!
