[QUOTE="snb778, post: 1690186, member: 557170"] Well I just got my TCAB with 2 12" type R's installed the other day...but here is the problem. The only thing is that I have to say im dissapointed with is my speakers...they cant hang with the bass...and they should be able to for the setup I have I have 2x 6 1/2" alpine Type R COMPONENT sets....one pair in the kicks....other speakers in the doors with tweets on the dash being powered by a hifonics Zeus...110rmsx4 AT 2 OHMS...im running at almost full gain!! to even get some decent sound when im poundin. Here is the weird part....When my car is off and I test the terminals..it says 2 ohms...I turn the car on...it says 6......??????????????/ anyone? Im guessing its running at 2...but it doesnt sound like its even being amplified...Im not saying it sounds bad...but I have heard these things get a lot louder. It just almost sounds as if i dont even have them amplified....i can almost guarantee the radio would get them almost just as loud...which makes no sense. WTF!! These components are rated at I believe 350 RMS....right now they are getting 220 A PAIR....do you think I need a little bigger amp...now its 110x4...think I should get a littlmore power like closer to 200x4?
