[David Barber 10+ year member]

i have a kenwood deck and a 1200 watt sony xplod xm-gtr 2022 amp and a 15'' concept competition sub that has a max rms of 2000 watts. everyone tells me sony xplod amps **** but not this one. my sub hits hard and i had it tested and its hitting 156.7 db. im entering it into a comp after i dynamat the trunk. and ideas on what i should do to make it louder? maybe LPF settings, low boost, and filter.

im sure that anyone with their head on straight would say that its worth way more. you think this systems **** but i can assure you for being what it is and being in a mustang its definitely worth the money. and i said im slightly knowledgeable when it comes to car audio, cuz if i knew as much as the next guy i wouldnt come to this site and ask for advice! look are you going to give me any advice on tuning it to make it louder or are you going to continue being a douche bag?

dude if you have this elusive 4 cil sub you say you have you need an amp that will push it the amp is the issue here...

get an amp that pushes the subs RMS as a minimum...

according to you it is 4 1Ohm coils at 1kw rms per coil

that means you need a 4000 watt rms amp..

problem solved...

i never once said its the baddest sub on earth and i know its not. most people tell me i have a ****** system until the sit in it and listen. not trying to be a d1ck but **** dude dont come off as a raging tool or aint no body gonna ask you for anything. obviously im not a genius when it comes to this stuff. and if you are one of the first guys to offer help then why didnt you do that in the first place?
