Need help deciding on a pair of subs

[BoomTown]

Of course you don’t have to get a new alt but you have to have power to make power. I factored you wereTrying to keep total investment down when you stated your budget for subs. Honestly look at a brazilian and consider two 750 watt 2.5vc subs with ease. Those amps you stated are both going to be a challenge to run and get
Anything close to the stated output ratings. 2k is still a good amount of amperage pull. That ad244 sounds like a good idea

So if I did the ad244, and then looked into the Brazilian amp I could probably run something around 1500w? Could I buy a big agm battery to run in the front later on?

You could but you probably wouldn’t be able to run your system without the engine running for more than a few mins without ruining your battery and putting your amp in protect. Get a big rear 31 agm and you may not need the alternator

Would something like this be good/big enough, Kinetik HC2400-BLU or Kinetik HC2400-REV?

Kinetiks use a low grade recycled lead. I would go with XS Power, Northstar, Deka (East Penn) or Duracell Platinum in that order.

Are RE subs still any good? They were the forum boner 11-12 years ago when I was here.

Having a hard time between that and the Sundown SA 12.

Either will be a spec sealed box to blend into the trunk of a BMW 430i GC.

I copped the very last EFA 1k from Synergy, being delivered today.

Nice name tryhard.

i actually think most of all the big name batts are now recycled, they did a survey and it was like 90% of lead acid batteries are made with recycled lead nowadays, very rare for virgin lead to be on the market unless they charging northstar pricing.

Its common knowledge. Virgin lead batteries have upwards of twice the life cycle of recycled lead.

I mean they could be lying but that's not a good look to lie about products.

 

[BCotrell]

Sam’s club Duracell’s will work

Kinetik has used recycled in the past. Either they are lying or changed it. I still wouldnt trust it.

I think the SSA Gcon is for sure, worth a look in this install need. They are made in the USA, have optional upgrades, and on Black Friday sale:
