[QUOTE="ASaranko, post: 5847663, member: 609556"] New to the boards but have been doing a lot of research and so just looking for some opinions. I have a 06 GMC Envoy. The system will start in a sealed box and once I get around to it a custom fiberglass box to help minimize the space I lose, so mounting depth should be as little as possible but no need to go shallow mount (thinking 6.5-7 in tops). I am wanting good SQ but also be able to turn it up and get low and kind of loud when need be. As of now I am running off the stock HU but will be getting a Premier Pioneer AVIC-F90BT this summer. I am on a budget and would like to stay around $400-500. I am also thinking of starting with 1 12" sub and getting an amp that runs it at 2 ohms so I could possibly upgrade to 2 12"s if the 1 is not cutting it. I am also attempting to stay away from ebay because of warranties, especially on amplifiers more so then subs. Here is what I was thinking (leaning towards 1 or 2 IDq or 1 SI mag) JL Audio 12W3v3 dual 4 500w rms Boston Acoustics G1512-44 dual 4 450w rms RE SE12d4 dual 4 600w rms IDQ 12v2.d4 dual 4 500w rms SI MagV4 dual 2 (obviously could only do one of these due to the dual 2 but would it do the trick?) 500-1000w rms any other suggestions? Also on amps I was thinking Hifonics BXi-1210D 900w @ 2 ohm/ 1200w @ 1 ohm Kenwood KAC-9104D 900w @ 2 ohm/ 900w @ 1 ohm (weird but according to manuf. website) AudioQue AQ1200D 870w @ 2 ohm/ 1200w @ 1 ohm any other suggestions? PS: I would rather keep the gain turned down and give the subs their full potential then under-power them, but even then some of the amps may be too much for a single sub, so better options are appreciated!
