sundown , soundqubed and american bass opinions

[loudenuff]

Have you considered going 2nd hand for a lil more you could get some sa12s used or something similar

thought about it but so many scams go on and I don't have the knowledge to spot a bad coil or spider or surround so I'm iffy about it

you think I can get away with running 4k on 4 hds310s? I didn't wanna have to drop another grand on batteries and amps but oh well. I'm addicted

yes 4k would be fine on 4 hds3 10s. they are rated 1200rms each and will handle atleast 1500rms clean each

If you want big bass/small woofers, look into DDs 8's and 10's. I have a good friend with two DD 8's, them shitz are louder and move more air then almost every dual 12" setup in my city.

Secondly, if you need a bada$$ custom box built and shipped for a great price

Hit up CSCstang on here. Wont be disappointed.

already got his number, I have a local builder but I'm not too sure about him. if the box doesn't come out too hot I'm definitely going to cscstang. and a guy at a shop down here told me about those dd 8s, just a little out of my price range. just purchased 2 ab tnt 10s, gonna get 2 more once I get an amp to power them all

ok guys I need some opinions !! I took out my back seats until I decide on subs so I can build a box and slide it in through the back. now will someone shoot me some ideas on what I can do with the space I have. I wanna keep this~3000 rms. so what can I do with the space I have? max 14 in h x 34 in w x 40 in d

Make sure the box is not too big that it blocks the sound waves from getting back into the cabin. It needs some clearance to let the port breath and load properly along with having space for the bass to travel back into the cabin, or else you'll just get muffled unimpressive bass with a rattling trunk.

I'm 17 so that's not an option for me yet. I think I just might end up doing that when I'm 18 though. and I just might do that, thanks man

If You decide to go the guard route, opt for night shift. Not a lot of people want to work nights. Worked for me when I started 25 years ago, and still works for me now, even get a 1.05 shift differential. I work armed security now, for the second largest power provider in the country. Good luck on your search for your elusive unicorn, aka 'the perfect sound.'

Honest id just get something else. Dont buy a soundque amp because its junk. Americanbass makes pretty good amp, i know sundown amps work. Americanbass. As far as these new new youtube companys like cresendo go id toss that in with the soundqube pile. And just because one amp puts out more than what its rated does not make it better. Some amps have cheaper internals but still push out more power and stuff, its about how long the amp can last under extream heat . Heat and vibrations kill amps. ...........dont buy soundqube because its cheap ripped of americanbass and hifonics anyway

American bass amps and SQ are almost identical.

Why even bother with this idiot lol

I know sq and hifonics are identical so they're out of the question. and ab are american made aren't they? I am leaning towards an autotek mm series 4k. I see a lot of good stuff about it, but if I'm about to take a walk in the wrong park Let me know

how big is too big? I am thinking about doing a little body work and trimming sheet metal that is really useless and blocking space behind my rear seat. you think if I do that it'll allow more airflow?

crescendo are beautiful amps, my buddy is running 2 2k on hdc4s. they're just out of my range, but they do deliver a whole lot of clean power.

So you want to go with autotek and shun out Korean board amps just because soundqubed is compared to hifonics? autotek is worse than hifonics. Just because it has American in its name doesnt mean its made in America. American bass is made in China but uses Korean boards.

soundqubed does a bit more then the bc 2000, the bc2000 has similar internals to a brz 2100

You've never owned or even heard one. You recommended crunch to another member and now you call soundqubed junk. WTF goes on in that mind of yours?
