hmmm.. im about to get a soundstream xxx10000, and im gonna use it to push my two orion hcca 12.2's gonna prolly run it at .5 ohm for comps, and 2 ohm for daily, i currently am pushing the subs with one a3000db ( cause the other one failed, lol), just wondering how much of an increase in spl i will see when i hook up the soundstream.

im hitting 146.7 with the single a3000db at the moment @ .5 ohms hehe

How do you like the hccas? How do they sound on music? By music I mean not rap.

they sound good, i listen to a mix of everything, there the old style hccas if that makes ne difference tho, i have three batts in back and one up front, getn kinda excited now that i have enough money to get the new amp, now i just gotta get it deposited in the bank.

That is a big amp for your sub set up. I personally would go with possibly a sundown 3500 / 3000d, atomic 5000.1 etc. These amps would also be more fuse friendly for meca and put out stout power vs. your current amp.

I was kind of thinkin' the same thing. Those poor little subs are gonna take a whoopin' with all that power. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
