[QUOTE="bikerdudenpa83, post: 5205228, member: 603973"] Hello guys. New to the forum, first post. This is what i have currently. Alpine cda 9855 head unit with the amp link brain box and the i-pod brain box aswell. That sums up the controls of the system. I have the mrv -f345 4 channel alpine amp ran to a set of mb quartz pce-216 mids and highs in the front and a set of alpine type r 6 1/2" coxials in the rear for fillers. thats it for my mids and highs. they sound great and dont want to mess with them. they get pretty loud and stay clean very satisfied with this set-up. Just need alittle more bottom end. Right now i have 2 sub amps, they are the mrd-m600. 600 watts rms apiece. I have 1 amp per sub. The subs are eclipse 12" sw8812 series. i believe there the 2002 or 03 models and they handle 500 rms each. dual 4 ohm voice coils aswell. each sub is wired up at 2ohm on each amp and the box has a divider in the middle and each chamber is 1.2 cubic feet. All this is in a 89 bronco II right now. I just got a 94 civic lx " has a trunk". I want to swap everything out. I have planned where evrything is going and it looks good. the only problem i seem to run into is the lack of bottom end in the subs. dont get me wrong i love my eclipse's, there super clean and drop way low but just dont get as loud as i want them. eclipse recomends sealed boxes only for these subs. has anyone atempted to port these subs i have? if not i'll just sell the eclipse subs and buy some that can be ported. this is where my problem lies. i cant decide on what subs or what size. 12" or 15". re audio sx series, mtx 8500, or DD audio 9500G.
