[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8540609, member: 650438"] music is recorded in 2.1 so any rear is useless. Do you have time alignment on your head unit? Car audio soundstage is pretty massively different from head fi stuff. Its massively wider however its harder to work with due to the reflections of all the surfaces in the vehicle and the uneven distances from the speakers/tweeters to your ear. thats why you need time alignment as a feature on your head unit along with at least 13 bands of EQ. Done right you should be hitting a 150 with a trunk wall and get good flex and maybe a paper trick or some miniscule hair movement. Didnt you say you were gonna run two amps? You do know your audiopipes are only 2 ohm stable right? running two d4 subs on one amp only allows for 4 ohms and 1 ohm load wiring so either you barely get any power or you overly stress your amp. at least with the two amps you can have each sub wired down to 2 ohms and each amp sees 2 ohms. I wholeheartedly agree with popwarhomie. You are setting yourself up for a disaster with impatience and lock of knowledge. [/QUOTE]
