If this were you, what would you do-

If you already had all of your sound deadening and HU installed, all u need to do is buy your front stage\midbass amps for all those, then your subs and amps and all wiring and new alternator.

If the money you were gonna spend regardless came up to - ~$3,200, if you knew you had the room to double output power from 2,000w to 4,500w, would you spend an extra $1,300?

Added weight is approx 500 lbs out of a total of 865 so new coil overs or shocks would also need to be bough as well ~$850 on top of $1,300.

Opinions?

I'd like to break 150 some point in my life but for a daily driver it's hard.

I'm lookin at wanting to buy 4 AA Arsenal 10s off of a 2,400w amp in a 4cuft @33hz but i don't think it's gonna get me to tha 150 mark @33hz.

I can do that, hehe or for $2,100 more, i can go with 3 AQ HDC310s off of a 4,500w amp and 6 batts.

But that's some mad extra money...

not sure man $2150 to go from 2k to 4.5k..will you be competeing? if not then i wouldnt do it..only if i was to compete then i would

well, that's a good comment.

No, i dont like to compete. For fun, non sanctioned events sure, but sanctioned events is just a turn off for me.

I hate to ask this so i wont ask it like i'm a noob, hehe.

I personally need to aim my goals to the cheaper alternative because i need to buy me some others things soon so that'll save some money.

Those AA subs, all of them seem interesting.

What has been catching my eye is also the Assassin 8" driver.

I have an idea but i noticed that the Fs of the 8 is 38hz and even though they recommend tuning at 33hz, i'm afraid it might not reproduce the lows in the high 20s on up to well...

My option was to run either 4 Arsenal 10s or 8 Assassin 8s.

I know 8 8s "should " be louder than 4 10s but i know nothing of AA so i'm clueless of the 8's potential.

If it were me, I'd also be concerned about the lower gas mpg with all that extra weight. With the way gas is priced now and in the future, you'll be spending more in the long run on that too.

I'd go the cheaper route. Save your money for other stuff. I don't know how you wouldn't be satisfied with "only" 2k watts if it's just a for fun car/project and not real serious (like competing). There may be a time in a month or a year when you're glad you have that 1300 bucks.
