    amp for FI BL 12

    You wont hear the difference between 500 watts and probably wont notice it on the meter neither, either one will do the job and be under your budget.

    4 re audio se 15's or 1 zcon 15?

    i mean i guess. the last one was over a month ago. if your gonna hate then just GTFO. No Lantz, its true and pointless if your gonna keep finding subs to compare to the Zcon every month. Its a waste of forum space and like I told you before it is not helping anybody out including you. Look at the answers your getting and no one is taking you serious, you wonder why. If the 4-15"s are what you want then get them, if the 15" Zcon is what you want then get it.

He ain't gonna go for it. He's set on hu power which means any entry level set will sound similar. Nooooooo bro, please dont suggest him an amplifier or he will

    Then just go to sonicelectronix and read reviews on 6.5 comps and pick a set? x2, your asking a site where 99% of people actually put amps on their interior speakers

    1 amp or 2?

    The only way to see if you benefit will be to be all three and test, put them on the tl meter an see what is louder or watch your volt meter to see which setup makes you drop the least amount of volts. Like stated above the one amp will be less of a headache.

    4 re audio se 15's or 1 zcon 15?

    I wasnt referring to your answer as being stupid, thanks for the negative mark guys

    4 re audio se 15's or 1 zcon 15?

    depends on whos driving. im sure if the op was driving the 400hp car, he would lose. x2, im pretty sure the car with the higher output alternator wont beat the same car with more horsepower (stupid answer you gave).

    4 re audio se 15's or 1 zcon 15?

    Obviously yes if you are here , hehe Either reread the other thread for the answer or stay on topic and help the kid out. Op usually cone area wins so the 4-15's may be louder but it really will come down to the install. You could build an spl box for the 15" Zcon and be louder than the 4-15's but you wont move as much as air. Another question is can you even fit four 15's in the proper enclosure in your truck? Everytime you get mad at people for making jokes at your expense but your not following the rules or asking valid questions. Asking what vs what will not get you anywhere since most people have heard neither sub and will give you subjective answers. Every install is different and asking which will be louder is not helping you either since designs can be tweaked to do more than others. If you keep buying all these used subs and selling them a week later then you wont never get a Zcon, take a minute and sit back till you decide what you really want to do. Just my .02
  14. In person the older models dont look bad at all. For the price they can't be beat. Even still all that gold was just not a good mix. The new Black and Gold looks way better. Indeed. Maybe in YOUR opinion. It is my opinion and I HATE it! Who cares about color as long as they perform, its not like heatsinks cant be painted if need be.

    Ampless component suggestions

    You clearly stated you didnt want one cause you couldnt fit one, space reasons and personal reasons are not the same at all just an FYI. But back on topic, most people will tell you their components on HU Power were ok but nothing outstanding or impressive.

    Ampless component suggestions

    The only reason why people are offering you suggestions on real small amps is because you stated you didnt want one for space reasons, next time be more clear and state that you dont want one for personal reasons. If your just wanting a pair off head unit power, I doubt it will really matter which ones you get as they wont be performing at their best.

    x2, Rockord Fosgate has an amplifier the size of your headunit (maybe a little smaller).

    The UPS driver struggled with this one...

    What are your enclosure and power plans for this sub?
  19. jcarter1885

    $800-$1000 Budget on Subs/ Amp

    You won't find a cheap 2kw amp worth buying. x2, I didnt mean you will get a 2kw cheap amp. I meant just get a 500 or 1000 watt amp at 1 ohm till you can afford to get a 2kw amp and the electrical to supply that power. But if you wanted a cheap amp that will put out some power Audiopipe has a 1800watt amp that can be had for $200 or less.

    $800-$1000 Budget on Subs/ Amp

    I personally would get the subs I want now and focus on an enclosure as well, then use the extra money to buy a cheap used amp to hold me over till I get the amp I want.

    SSA's Evil SS Camaro. 4 Evil 15s and 2 DC 7.5ks

    I say go for it, my Pro's sound good for the money and get loud as well. There are other brands out there as well just depends on how much you want to spend, another thing to look at is do you want midbass or not. You can get some speakers that will be louder than the Pro's but not drop down to 80 or 100hz.

    Thoughts on Boston Acoustics???

    How does this qualify as a good suggestion without any real reason? Besides being 100% subjective, listing what you disliked/liked about each product would of been a tad better. I doubt he tried to steer him away from Boston Acoustics, more of an hey go to your shops and see what you like or dislike. Plain and simple, even if he listed what he liked/disliked about each problem it still would be subjective to the OP. Everybody has different taste, when I was shopping for components I went to as many shops as I could to get a sample of different comps to see what I liked more. What I like the next person probably wont like, what I was suggested on the forums I didnt really care for when I gave them a listen.

    The new Store Look

    Mark is great at web designing and it just gets better and better every time, keep up the good work fellas.
  25. Yeah I definitely hear you and understand where you are coming from, I was just throwing out a fairly priced alternative thats all. I wouldnt mind using there equipment but like you said I would at least like you to take some time to update your site, even if you dont care as an owner some of us consumers care about small things like that.
