Hey everybody, I'm new here and new to Fi products. I heard a single 15" in a local parking lot and was blown away. I'm looking to purchase an 18" BTL (any other suggestions?) enclosed in a ported box. I'm trying to stay under the $1500 mark . I really have no idea what amp I should purchase or if 2 15" will be louder. I'm 16 and I don't have my car yet, but I will be getting a 2004 Pathfinder. P.s I'm trying to out do my friends 2 15" mojos with a 3000 watt stetsom amp. Any suggestions on a set up would be awesome (and the final cost of course) Thanks, Daniel

$1000 from woofers etc

Well yea because your moving double the cone area with the same amount of power. It will be noticeably louder. Are you getting a good deal on the amp and what does it push? If your looking to spend that much just get a Sundown Saz3000D and give each BL 1500watts. Ok cool, and 1500 watts will be enough for each bl to reach its full potential One last question (sorry if im pissing you off) how big should my box be in order to house two 18s

Would the two BL's running off a mmats 3500 be significantly louder than one 18 running off the same amp.

If i were to drop to BL 18 and got two of them would it be worth it or would you stay with a single BTL 18. Would the BL's require the same amount of electrical upgrades/battery.

thanks for the info shane. What do you mean when you say "big 3". I'm going to have it professionally done at a local store that deals with a lot of high end systems. Would a box larger than 8cuft be a waste? Im thinking about a mountaineer and taking out the third row seats so I should have plenty of room. dbjunior: he has 7.5cuft box in the back of a 05 4runner. He had them professionally installed with upgraded electronics etc. they hit hard as hell. johnecon: No thank you, I'd rather be the boss and pay the cost.

I listen to rock/rap. I would mostly use the subs for rap. I think it can be done for $2500-3000 i just gotta find a suv with enough cargo space my goal is to be loud as hell haha

thanks for the awesome advice. lets just say I get a car with room for an 18, and my budget isn't that limited i just wanted to see if it could be done. My max would be $2500

i just realized theres no way in hell a 8 cubic ft box can fit in the back of a pathfinder. Ignore that, I'll just get a bigger car. Will a mmats 3500 be alright?
