Need Suggestions

I recently bought a 84 Cutlass supreme that i'm fixing up. I'm Thinkin of running 4 Cadence Daytona DCW15RVC. What would be some good amps to run for a set up like this. I'd like to run 2 good amps with RMS around 3000 - 4000 watts a piece, or i'd like to run 4 amps with RMS 1500 - 2000. Shoot me some ideas, And if anyone has any of these subs for sale let me know, income tax is coming in and I may not be able to pass up a good offer!!! same with some good amps!!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

If not two alts.

Sounds pretty ambitious and very costly.

ya..the electrical alone is a huge undertaking. unless you have a huge budget and some experience in the field, id go smaller

yeah i know i'll have to do alot of upgrading on the electrical, just something i've always wanted to do, I guess 6k total would be resonable i'd even go with 5k total depends on what amps I run across

have u ever heard 5,000rms on 4 15"s? if so and it was LEGIT equipment and u thought it was what you need..then go ahead. if you havent..id get say 2 15"s on 2000-3000rms..good place to start and then you can beef up the electrical as you go and add as you see fit

If you know for a fact you want to run 3000+, I would beef up the electrical first.
