18 inch ethos

Recommended Posts

So Ijust purchased a new to me 04 tahoe, and I'm planning my new system. I'm set on two 18 inch ethos what should I shoot for on the box and what are some good amp rec.? Basically it's gonna be a daily system bump on my way to work and back etc. Thanks in advance.

p.s

I was looking at the Soundqubed 3500

Do you have a budget in mind?

Maybe 800-1200 for amp will be adding two xs d6500 one up front one in hatch. And a mechman 270 amp h.o alt with multiple runs of welding supply 1/0

Sounds good. i would look into a 5-6k rms amp rated. That would give you enough real world head room to play with and would be damn loud!

A Soundqubed 3500 would be plenty for these subs in a daily setup and be plenty loud.

i also enjoy headroom,
 the problem is with a  newbie, head room because " well... ill just turn it up a little more... a little more.. damn thats loud!"

 

 then the next week you read a new topic about  sub problems.....             

 

 so while head room may make sense for some of us,  limitations are a good thing in some cases,

 

i agree, for daily 3Kis would be damn loud, and sounds great and impress the hell out of you and your friends,

 i would  focus more on in enclouser , more then wattage

 

 BTW,   i like the fact that you have your electrical back bone in mind... slayer.gif
