Plans for the blazer...few Qs...153s wont happen :(

Well due to the fact that I have other priorities I need to address before I attempt a 153+ on music build, I have decided to do a smaller build. Goal is loud and clear on music, none of that SQueer bullshit. I dont give a **** which side the instruments should be on, as long as I can hear it clearly.
So heres the plans...

Pioneer D3 w/ bluetooth

Infinity Kappa Perfects in kick panels

Rockford 400-2 powering those

Infinity Kappa 6x9s in the rear and 6.5" in the doors

Rockford 400-4 powering those

Either 2 Fi BLs 15's or 2 AQ 15's

Groundpounder 3000D

Kicker Dual Amp Kit with about another 5-10 of 1/0

Kinetikc HC2400

Smaller Kinetik in the front

200SQ Ft of Fatmat

Now my main question is, will those 15" BLs be suitable for a 3kw amp? Also is 200SQFT of fatmat enough? I dont want a **** rattle in the car, I want to cover everything 2-3 times, that means the car itself as well as the underside of every panel.
No. There is a guy in my town with 3 18" BLs on 1kw a piece, and it doesn't break 150 on music in a Tahoe. Further, there have been members on here post that the BL has an extremely stiff suspension, which means that it requires a good bit more than the 1500 rms rating to get it loud. I would go with the AQs if you're choice is between the two.

I have fatmat in my car and seems to work, of course I don't have as much watts or subs, so that may be why, but my car rattled like a bish before hand. I have over 100sqft to still lay down and I do have 40sqft of SS in the trunk, but I ran out and put the FatMat in the part that flexes, rattles the most and took care of it, with one layer, lol! I don't know why people diss it to be honest. Works on my car. Now for how long, will be the decideing factor.

its honestly hard as hell to play music in the 50s especially with subs in the cargo area. its **** near impossible to play music that loud with as little as 3kwrms. but it can be done. if hes wanting to play music that loud his best bet would be to wall his car off thats my suggestion!
