New Build Need Opinions

[lucky13x]

My first build I ever did was a RE XXX 18" running at 1800 watts 0.5 ohms from a MA Audio HK401SX in a Ford Explorer hitting between 140-150 decibels. I currently own a 2009 Ford Focus 2 door coupe. I'm wanting to build up my audio system in this car. With it not having much room in the trunk I was thinking either 2 12's at 1000 watts or a single 12 at the same. Wanting to do more quality over just plan bass. Was thinking maybe going with Alpine, FI, or RE with a Hifonics amp. Just looking at thoughts or opinions?

Definitely look at a different amp unless you get the hifonics brx/z2400

Sundown, ssa, fi, and tantric are all subs that will be on part with the old style RE XXX. new re isn't as good I hear

I was looking at the BL or SSD from FI. My main question I guess is will I get what I'm looking for with a single 12 or should I do 2.

Depends on how much room you have. I can hook you up with a tline for 2 hds208's that will get you very loud and clean bass. Pm me if you're interested.

a 15" sub or the two hds208 in a T-line enclosure. That box cscstang makes aint no joke.

I feel like Im taking crazy pills. RE is not like Sony. And Pioneer makes great subs.

And LMAO at 'real gear' from ssa. They sell good products but just lol at that reply.

Re sold out... They used to make great products... When Scott had control of the company... Great woofers then not anymore... Lay off the crazy pills plastic doesn't make for good cones
