    Car dampening?

    If you are going to deaden, I would get Damplifier Pro over normal Damplifier.

    what to get

    Because you could spend 3/4 of that amount and get a better sub while you are at it! The W7 is wayyyy overrated. While I'd prefer a W6v2 over the W7, ever hear a Morel Ultimo? Or Focal Utopia? Or Aura NS? Some things are worth that much Personally, I don't think the Utopia isn't worth its $1200 price tag, but that's just me

    If you're talking about me, Nope never thought of the frisby business, haha. Oh, and my name is not Jacob. His name is BJ, I think you are talking about Jacob Fuller, the owner of Sundown Audio. No problem though

    Looking for Tweeters and Speakers

    I have a set of 6.5's in the front door, I was thinking of getting 5x7 for the rear doors or putting 6x9's on the rear deck.. You think I should still go for 6.5's in the back? I just want to be able to hear my highs with some authority, I will have 2 15's in the back and 2 8's up front for midbass aswell 6.5's should be used throughout.

  11. That's me right there. I also hate it when people call and engine a motor. There are flaws in that way of thinking though

    The RMS alone has no bearing on how loud a sub will be. Hypothetically, if you have a 150 watt RMS speaker which was 91 db efficient and put 150 watts on it and a 300 watt RMS speaker that was 87 db efficient and put 300 watts on it, which would be louder? Comp's are 89 dB efficient and 20 mm of xmax, and CompVR's are 86 dB efficient and 26 mm of xmax. They are built to be a better woofer, that is enclosure and install dependent, but theoretically a better woofer. xmax is just like the RMS number. It has little bearing on how loud a sub will be. Look at PA woofers. They have maybe 4 mm of xmax. Yeah they can't normally dig as low, but in the 45-80 hz range they're crazy loud. They also typically have efficiencies of 95+ db. I wasn't trying to say that his new setup wouldn't be louder. I'm just saying be careful about thinking every sub with a higher RMS rating (or xmax) will be louder than what you have. Typically larger subs (in terms of motor size for power handling) are less efficient. I don't know about these two subs, I haven't looked them up. I'm just saying in general. But you also hinted to it. You said Comps (150 RMS) are 89 db efficient and the comp vr's are 86 db efficient. That means you'll likely have to dump twice as much power into it to make them just as loud as the comps. Efficiency isn't the ONLY number to look at, either, but it will give you a better idea than xmax or RMS ratings ever will (provided the numbers are measured in the same way). Yes, you should never base "loudness" on xmax or efficiency. I was simply saying that under there circumstances a swap in subs and doubling the power would be a good deal louder, I cannot say how much louder though, you will have to ask the meter

    I was talking to KU. I think the CVR's and another ZX2500.1 would be quite the upgrade.
