[QUOTE="sumone, post: 349748, member: 551481"] Went to the us acoustics site and found that the 4065 does 160Wx2CH and the 4085 does 240Wx2CH bridged (Mono @ 4 Ohms @ 12.9v input) Looking at the Kx specs from edesign, the recommended wattage input for the 10 & 12 is 150-400W. Does this mean I would be better off with the 4085, since 150W is the subs' lower end, and pretty much the 4065s higher end? Can someone give like an explanation of what I can expect from a sub at certain input wattage [with an ideal sub and ideal scenario/setup]? For example, something like 50W: You may hear the sub 75W: Soft response 100W: Suitable for most listening occasions .... 1,000W: The neighborhood is happy when you leave town My current thoughts as of now: · CDT-61 components [$209 - thezeb.com] · cdt image enhancement system?? [$50-thezeb.com] · US Aco. 4085 Amp [$180 - crutchfield.com] · 1 edesign 12kx [$85 - edesign.com] - and if I decide to buy[most-likely] instead of making: · sealed box enclosure @1.0cuFt [$50-$100?] · some kick panels for the cdts [$100-$150? any others than q-logic? also will have to get the cdt-51s if I go with these kickpanels since 6.5s won't fit] - and if I decide to get everything installed somewhere: · installation costs...[???] I really do want to try and do it myself, but doubt I'd be able to...I would rather have someone else do it, learn from that, and then not have to go back to that person. Just don't wanna "break" anything or like drill into my fuel tank, etc. I know next to nothing about cars...so that's another excuse. So I'm looking at somewhere around $750 w/o going the e-Bay way. If I do decide to do some e-Bay'ing, which would you recommend me find in a real store, and which over e-Bay? Helotaxi, where's that $400 figure coming from??? [/QUOTE]
