yea sorry i meant to put that..... i already have a good active crossover, Coustic XM6. but do you think two 6.5's and 2 tweets will be loud enough to be heard with 150+db bass setup that i am doing? ...Turn down the subs when you want to hear the front stage? No joke.. when will you actually need a front stage with a 150db output?? I really hope your not driving around town listening to music at that level... (will it even play 150 on music or is that a burp/tone?) keep us updated though! my old system would do 145 or so on music with the re's. and that was with a sealed setup. so this one being ported with more power and better subs, i hope to get alot more out of it. but i am more interested in having a setup like Tommy Mckinnie's, like a bass race setup......

really i am looking to just try and keep up with my bass. I have talked to a couple of people about this and i have pretty much made my mind up that i am going to get 8 classic 5 1/4 Dayton mids, and 8 Audax silk dome tweets. It's only going to cost me 250 or so for all 16 speakers, so i won't be out much. And if i want to upgrade later i can just by removing the cheap ones and installing new ones. i knw those aren't the best brand in the world, but they will be better then most, and with me using a bunch of them they should keep up really well with my bass.

Also if some of you guys are wondering, i will be using 1/2 mdf on the bottom and back of the box for alittle extra room. as i figure it I need .5 cubes per sub, so say 5 cubes total plus sub displacement. so .07 per sub. total 5.7 cubes, plus aeroport displacement aeroports will be 18" long, so roughly .13 displacment for each 4" flared aero port. total .78 cubes plus the 5.7 would be 6.48 plus a little bit for the braces so roughly 6.5 cubes would do it the box will be: 24" tall 12" wide bottom 9.25" wide top 54" long bottom 57" long top should be 6.48 cubes at just 54" long for the total box, not adding the extra 3" of length at the top of the box that will be 57" long instead of 54" long like the bottom

Hey everyone i am Ryan. You will here alot from me while i am building my new setup! I have a 2000 Isuzu Hombre (same as an S10), std cab, 5speed, 2.2 I had twelve RE 8's in the truck before the teardown, and now i am upgrading: here is an old pic: and for anyone interested it did 148 on the TL mic with a modified MTX 1501D amp. My new setup will look something like this: with 10 ascendant 8's ported with 6 aero ports tuned to around 45hz or so for comps, and if i plug up 3 ports it will tune the box to around 32hz for daily driven and i will be putting in four 5 1/4's or 6" mids in each door, along with 4 tweets in each door. i have yet to decide on brands for those any comments or suggestions on mids/tweets are WELCOME!!!!!! oh and here is a pic of my truck:
