hey whats up, I'm new to the forum and kinda new to car audio, um I'm trying to get a system and was thinking of a new SI MAG and sundown saz1500D amp for now then later upgrading to 2 of each, does that sound good

[JimJ 11]

For a substage it sounds fine, what do you have planned for the rest of the system?

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

I agree with Jim, nice sub stage.

ok if you mean like HU and stuff, then right now I have a pioneer 3900, and pioneer 6x9s, stock mids, I dont really know what else I have planned out, suggestions are welcome

[JimJ 11]

I mean the stuff to cover the other 90% of what you can hear...yeah, the HU and stuff

What kind of a budget are you working with?

agreed. I think one mag and a 1500 sundown though would be plenty of substage for my tastes but possibly not for yours.

H/U, comps, amp for the comps, dampening, etc etc.

umm well I dont know my budget on everything besides the sub and amp yet, I am getting the saz1500D and new 15" MAG for 850, lol what a deal huh, but yeah I dont know yet, also if I like the sound of 1 MAG I might just stick with that idk yet, also I have no clue what my budget for all the other stuff is yet, after I get the sub and amp I'll worry about other things,

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

Interesting on the price.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

would 1 15" MAG be better than 2 15" RD sonance's in the LSQ range, cuz I plan on either having 1 MAG or 2 15" sonances, and I want to know what will get loudest and what will sound best doin it

Did you PM tirefryr for a price on the MAG's?

Also one approach is to try one MAG, get it set up correctly, and if it is not loud enough for you save up for the second one.

[jester king 0]

no I havent, unless they can beat 1 15" new MAG and a sundown saz1500D amp for 850 then I'm goin with low-hz, also will the MAG overpower all the other fq's like all you hear is bass, I hear that the MAG is LOUD but I also want to be able to hear the music very well

[Electrodynamic 2]

also will the MAG overpower all the other fq's like all you hear is bass,

Adjusting your gains / levels correctly will solve that problem. Remember that a gain is not a volume knob, and use the remote level that comes with the 1500 to adjust the bass to your listening preference.

ok so a mag will not overpower your music if set properly, also how much in total would it cost, to get 2 MAGs and enough electrical to power it, remember the 2 MAGS and amps will be 1700, how much would the electrical cost

No real correct answer for that. How much do you want to spend? DO you want fancy wire and accessories? Do you want cheap stuff? Do you want a good alt or a cheap one? Do you even NEED to upgrade the elctrical? Etc. . . .
