[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8717574, member: 614752"] Nice! Do yourself a favor and quit while you're ahead. I watched a guy who hit a million on one and gave it all back to the lottery (and the Injuns) within a year. And just ONE of those Taramps 8k will want to draw as much as 800A Where's the other 650A coming from? If you use two, where's the other 1350A coming from? They won't make near rated power and they may sag voltage so bad they'll power off, power other accessories off, or blow themselves up. Fi products are good across the board. BTL may be about comparable to 95xx with the new larger coils. SP4 are solid and take a ton of power, but they take a ton of power to get loud. You can get loud with power and/or cone area and each is its own set of challenges. Power is cheap these days as far as amps but battery can get spendy. Lots of woofers obviously is cost of subs, weight, and bigger (heavier) box. IF you're buying a new vehicle do yourself a favor and get a big SUV like Tahoe, Expedition, Suburban type thing. Plenty of room, can usually support multiple alternators (or at least a big upgrade stock one) and they're pretty friendly to get loud. Minivans can get very loud as well. I have it on good authority that Dodge Caravan windshields can hold up to about 170dB which is pretty impressive, they're also a dime a dozen used. Buy a car, figure out how much room you have to work with, then plan subs around that airspace. [/QUOTE]
