Never heard the Sundowns so I can't comment on them. I own a pair of the AQs and the SDCs would get nice and loud off 1000w RMS a piece. Just be careful with the gain. IMO, for the price you pay on these woofers they are a great deal.

My apartment can host the after party haha

Anyone in Houston have a TL? I know the drive for me would be around 4 hours and probably around 5-6 for BigJon. But I'm down for a day or two in Houston. Haven't gotten the chance to roll down there while ive been here in Texas

yeah man im straight but i cant say the same bout my whip. still drivable, i just hate lookin at my jacked up front end. Matt and Edgar, if yall want to get together this weekend and do some shit we can kick it at my apt have a few drinks or whatever My number is 859 8966 just just holla at me. Matt I know I lost your digits after I got my new phone so just text me or somethin.

Haha yeah i remember that. I met Edgar not to long ago and we went over to Ingram and didn't run into any problems. We just went to the way back of the parking lot. On another note, I got into a bad wreck yesterday. The front of my Marquis got smashed up.

I'm down for a meet up when you get here. Shoot me a PM and I'll give you my number. I know there are a few guys in SA that post here, maybe we can all get together.

You could always e-mail them or sonicelectronix to get a for sure answer. That's what I would do. It would suck ended up buying mounting hardware and then it not even fit.

How the hell you been man ain't seen you in a good long while Doin good right now. I got a new phone and shit so you'll have to message me with your number. Maybe we can meet up again before the "official" meet. The SDCs are sounding a lot better. Finally ditched that shitty prefab box I had. I just need help figuring out how to get more air into the cabin now. I'm gonna try removing the rear speakers but unsure of what that will sound like.

Alright, I'll go ahead and pull those rear speakers and see what happens. If I had the money, I'd already have a new front stage. I've already got my wiring I just need to save up for the amp and comp set.

yeah i hope to meet him at the next Texas meet up. Hopefully I can get some pointers then. Thanks for your help.

Right now I'm at 6.8 cubes after port tuned to 34hz. I was worried a higher tuning would hurt the low end. This was the first box I ever built so there is most likely some improvement I can make. This is my first system so I could be setting the gain wrong. Hopefully I can meet up with someone local to help me out this weekend. As for my rear speakers, do you think it would be better or worse? I'm scared since the speakers are stock the 2 in the front wont be loud enough.

if they are heating up, you probably clipping them too much for daily. DJ told me a user runs an aq1200d on each 2.5 and the 1200d is rated at 1470w with no problems so i'm assuming it's a clipped signal. If you upgrade to hdc3, you'll get great sound using an amp under 1500w, anything more than that and you enable "brute force" mode. I mean my gain isn't even half way up and they are acting up. Volume never exceeds 25/35 on my HU. Everyone that gets in my car is surprised when I tell them I have 2 15s. Although my trunk came pretty sealed up from the factory so not a lot of air gets into the cabin. I've been worried about removing my rear speakers fearing that just 2 in the front wont be loud enough. I may end up just moving on to an 15" HDC3 then picking up a 2nd & bigger amp later down the road. Sorry to thread jack, I just hate seeing so much thread clutter about almost the same stuff.

Either amp is a good choice. I've got the SAE-1200D and am very happy with it's output. Now if you totally don't mind spending the extra money go with the SAZ.

I don't really want to make a new topic since we are talking about AQ already. Do you think I would be happier moving from these 2 SDC 15" to a single HDC3 15" or 18"?

I'm down for whenever. I missed the last one but I should be good to go this time around.

The HDC3s are probably good. Although I'm not 100% happy with my SDCs. They seem to have trouble handling my SAE-1200D.

Yeah I feel ya man. Gettin a job right now is a total bitch. How the Qs doin?

Damn I wish I had money for new subs. I always miss out on great deals.

Ahh, I see. I didn't know that.

I got my Yellowtop for $200 at Autozone.

The stone paint looks really good. I want to do the same for my box. It's bare MDF right now. All those screws aren't going to split the MDF are they?

I've heard that combo in a caddy deville and it sounded damn good. I think the Qs didn't have any options but I don't really remember.

Just got my box built today. Now I'm totally ready for a meet.
