  1. What are you talking about? That is enough power... I said "thats not much power" of course its enough, but ive seen others running (4) 8's on 3000w+ all day, and (2) 8's on 1500w, jus sayin you might not get all (4) 8's full potential with only 375 rms each, just do 2 8's or 4 8's on a bigger amp, thats what "im talking about" just trying to help
  2. thats not that much power for (4) sa-8's,>>>> ill be giving my sa-8's 600-750 rms each, why not (2) sa-10's on 1500w?
  3. Great work so far man, that front stage looks pretty intense, i like the subs too, i remember a few years back i had (2) 12" infinity perfect subs on a 1200w class d amp, i loved their sound , great ""SQL"" sub, and very puuurty too, BTW i hope you eventually put like 1 mllion pounds of sound deadening in that trunk, or its gonna rattle lik a mother F !!!!!! keep up the great craftsmanship, im def tuned in for more
  4. Amazing install brother, from the door pods to the quad 18's whole thing makes me so Hawneyyyyy, you are very talented, ive been drooling over your truck as well ever since i saw it on the "tahoeyukonforum" i remember talking to you over there a while ago my name was "DIY_DAD" unfortunately i had to sell my HO due to losing my job and gas prices here in so cal are now around $4.30 / Gallon for 87 octane, i loved my HO and always hoped for something amazing like yours, so keep up your amazing work, and keep your beautiful truck shining, BTW, .....i havent seen crunch amps since high school, and never really cared about em, but since your install i knew you are intelligent and researched these crunch amps, and i guess they are amazing quality and nothing like the old garbage crunch stuff, where did you buy them, any more info on them would be greatly appreciated, thanks man, much respect................Todd

    Fawking Sick !!! i love it man, those wheels on the flat black make me so Hawnyyyyyyy, great job thus far, cant wait to see a sick system later on, keep up the amazing work
  7. Theres nothing iike some nice vented 8" subwoofers in the right box, sounds good with any music, and never too boomy, and doesnt drown out front stage, thats why they are always my fav! good luck with your 8's try and port them and im sure youll be happy
  8. Hello friends im in the mood to buy some midbass drivers soon, and would like some opinions, im looking for a 6.5" specifically, and in the future it will be run off of either a Sundown 100.4D or a CDT 4 ch amp, both are around 100-110 rms x4 @ 4 ohms, here are the (2) different midbass drivers im currently looking at http://cgi.ebay.com/2-CDT-Audio-M6-6-5-480-Watt-Max-Mid-Sub-Bass-Drivers-/120608723861?pt=Car_Speakers&hash=item1c14d71395 and>>> http://cgi.ebay.com/CX64-V-2-IMAGE-DYNAMICS-6-5-4-OHM-MID-BASS-SPEAKERS-/120608722859?pt=Car_Speakers&hash=item1c14d70fab Any opinions on the 2 would be much appreciated, BTW they will be going in the lower doors in custom pods, Also any opinions on another 6.5" midbass for around the same price and power range would also be appreciated greatly, thanks for your time
  9. i love 8's to man sa-8's ftw thats why i kinda want to go with the 8's i will have to go sealed if i get the 12 they are cheap 8's but i love 8's Yah i just recently got my (2) SA-8's, waiting on some money, then im getting an argent audio vented box, and a Sundown 1200 or 1500, cant wait
  10. This setup makes me soooo hawnyyy, god damn man i am jealous of those xcons and 3500!!! wish i could hear this setup, btw your gonna be deaf!! all that power and air right at the back of your hed haha
  11. Well being an 8" sub lover 4 life i usually would say get the 8's butttttttt, those 8's dont look too great, i mean for the $30 for a pair of 8's, just seems a bit cheap, i would say get 1 12" and port it on a lil amp and youll be happy, and BTW this is coming from a guy who LOVES 8" subs!!!, just dont like those cheap ones, i dnno if this helps, maybe im just tired and rambling again haha
  12. Ok so my focal polykevlar components are finally dead, i got a lot of years use out of them, but now im interested in some new stuff, ive seen these mpyre mids all over but cant find where to buy them, can anyone help, or recommend some other components for a decent price, thanks
  13. Hey "the end" stop replying to so many post, everytime i see your avatar video i get all dstracted and lose all my thoughts! haha
  14. You should try those new Sundown 8's in your doors, they look badass, for some good mid-bass
  15. Wow what a waste of time reading this post thus far
  16. Im not too familiar with audiopipe, but IMO they look extremey overrated and not that great, i always go by " you get what you pay for" so 2 amps for dirt cheap, probably means your getting cheap overrated amps, just my 2 cents, it just seems like such a downgrade going from a us amps amplifier to audiopipe, yuck, anyways just my opinion but i say keep the RE's and get a quality amp on em, good luck
  17. Nice work so far, im droolng over those mids, nice speaker choices, cant wait to see those 18's
  18. Put the better speakers up front , for sure, in my opinion rear staging is worthless, for me im all about front stage, all sound sounds crappy from the backseat anyways, and up front all the rear speakers are drowned out by bass usually anyways
  19. Im selling 1 of them to my friend, but my other one is brand new, never used, if anyone wants to buy it lemme know its a DD 1000 series 8" svc 4, make me an offer
  20. I bought 2, i got kind of worried when they were selling out so quick, so i bought them right away, how do you guys suggest breaking them in, im kind of a noob, my thought was to wire them in parallel (2) dvc 4's to 8 ohms each then wire in series to a 4 ohm mono load giving them 400 rms from the 1200d just to loosen up the cone and spiders etc, then after 2 weeks wire them to 1 ohms mono to get 1200 rms, what are your ideas, btw i wonder where in CA this argent audio is, i would love a cstom box built specifically for these beast but for now just a universale size, because im gonna sell my chrysler 300 and try and get a newe Audi a4 1.8t, then build a custom box once that car is mine, was thinking of building thema box for the audi where the vents would be lined up with the rear seat arm rest as a "blow through" thatd be sick,any ideas or suggestions are welcome,BTW when i figure out how to do pic uploads ill take some SA-8 vs. DD 1008 pics
  21. Sorry i am just so excited like a kid on christmas, they were waiting for me on my door when i got home from the gym, mannnnn these things are soo beefy, i own some DD 1008's and thought nothing else could touch them until i opened these up, they are built like a brick shithouse! my wife couldnt even pick 1 of them up, i cant wait to break them in and then cause some chaos, btw im going with a sundown 1200D, but still need someone to build me a box im horrible with that stuff
  22. what do you mean by "big 3" ?
  23. Wow, thanks so much man, you are a good friend, you are so fast at responding and helping, i appreciate it so much, i just checked out that site and WOW, i was looking at paying $395 for a sundown amp, but they got a used 1200d for $210!!! only cosmetic wear, which i could care less, i hide all my amps anyways, what a deal, can you tell me about your box specs and vent sizes?
  24. i am building a setup for listening only, no competitions or anything, running (2) sa-8 dvc 4's, i was originally thinking of a sundown 1000d, which i felt was enough, but everyone i see with sa-8's is running either a 1200d or 1500d, is it safe to run these larger amps for daily abuse on the subs or is the 1000d going to be enough, thanks for your advice
  25. ^^^This!!! I have 2 of these little beasts (about .7 each tuned to 33hz) on a 1200D and they are very impressive for an 8". Have received many comments from people thinking they were a larger sub. Do you guys have suggestions for box building, etc, im horrible at buidling sub boxes, is there anywhere i can buy a box, or have one custom made here, besides a local car audio shop, my local shops are total losers and think kicker and rf still rule the world
