Cresendo = Just as good as Sundown, however, cheaper...

yeah i have already upgraded to an extra alternator and deep cycle battery have capacitors everything is o gauge wiring and i just ordered the cresendo amp do you think four alpine 12's ran off the 3000 watt cresendo amp will be pretty loud

Your box build will determine that...

my ported box is tuned to 35hz

 

[Team TH (Donny) 10+ year member]

You built it or had it build? I'm assuming its not a prefabricated box is it?

 

[Team TH (Donny) 10+ year member]

As long as the box is well built. It will sound great. Should get loud with that amp, however, really just depends on the box/vehicle, etc..

He is a video of the amp pushing two XCON 15's

Return the capacitors you bought.

Return the capacitors you bought.

Threw them on Craigslist and use whatever funds you get put towards a second batt.

Wow you move fast....

5 days ago you were asking what subs you should buy

then 4 days ago you said you have 3 Kickers in a Ported box

2 days ago you were trying to get help designing a box for 2 - Alpine 12's

http://www.caraudio.com/forums/subwoofers/522769-lpine-type-r-subwoofer.html

Now 1 day later you have 4 Alpine Subs

What happened to the 3 Pioneer Amps on a 2 gauge wire that you had

What happened to the custom Slot ported box you had for 3 subs?

I think you should just slow down and get 1 setup to work correctly.

Seems like you want something different each day.

There is no magical setup that you will plug in and be happy with.

Also you say you have 2 alts now but just 3 days ago you only had 1.

Can we get some pictures of your setup, I think it will help us to help you.

If you want to run 4 -12's why not remove your rear seat? In my Nissan Titan which is bigger than your Toyota, my 2- 12's took up 3/4 of the rear seat so 4 - 12's in your truck need all the space back there.
