i was sorta referencing and adding a little bit of info, just letting you guys know that i do have some good knowledge here.
You hit the nail on the head. XS4300. Any good?? Haha

it will do rated power then some, clean too
FYI the XS series reallly shines when you bridge it

Glad I didn't sell it then. When I upgrade interiors it will be put to good use. I need to rewire everything then so I am kind of putting it off. Need new head unit, all speakers, who knows what other goodies I'll want. Do you (or Slim) have opinions regarding interiors? I think I have 5.5's and then .5" tweeters maybe? I don't remember off the bat but what would you recommend for a moderately priced replacement? (Factory Monsoon in a VW GTI right now.) Head unit recommendations? (I have a double din and would really like to stay away from a spacer if at all possible....)
how much do you want to spend really, then i can suggest a few things for you
I am not 100% sure right now.... Basically not anywhere near MB Quart or top of the line JL type prices. I will spend a bit, but not THAT much right now. I know its vague but maybe you could recommend 2 or 3 at different price points?

Ok. So if I got this amp, it's 300 watts RMS, at 2 ohms. I'm looking at a sub that is rated around 300 watts RMS, with DUAL 2 ohms.
Will those match up ok??? Or with the dual 2 ohms on the sub, will that make it underpowered (150 watts)?
see this is how it works. when you add both of the voice coils the resistance goes down. it would make a 1 ohm load. but the amp is only good at 2 ohm. so it would be toast. for that to work you would want either a single 2 ohm sub with a single 2 ohm amp or dual 2 ohm amps on a dual voice coil sub. i love electric class.
to make it easy just buy a alpine type x sub, a pdx1000.1 amp and it will work. =]
Yeah lemme pull that outta my ass real quick hahaha...
BUDGET MINDED! Yeah don't got a fortune here
yeah a type e isnt gonna hit real hard in that toaster you got. =]

Ok...So if I want to use that amp, I just gotta find a sub with a single 2 ohm setup...K, thanks John.
Your explanation was actually usefull... OH GOD that means the next three pages in this thread won't be about audio at all haha
Oh, hey. Alpine type r 10" in is dual 4 ohm. so I could use that in theory. RMS would be sufficient, but the amp would reach nowhere near peak.
or it could be a dual 4 ohm that when you wire it to one amp it would become a 2 ohm load.
thats how mine is running. i have the dual 4 ohm. when my amp is wired at 4 ohm its like 220w rms. 2 ohm is like 400w rms.
Matt, pick up either one or two 12" cv-r's. Go to a flea market and you could pick them up for about $150-200 depending on the box. They sound nice and clean and hit hard.
god why do people want their fenders to rattle when they listen to music thats friggin stupid as hell lol
well it makes all music sound better. imo

It does sound like crap outside the car, but it does sound better inside.
man i gotta disagree i cant stand taht stupid shit, makes my head hurt and all u can hear is the buzzing of the base; give me a good quality sound with enough base to hear it all and im happy. not stupid BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM its retarded; but i guess it all makes sense if u listen to wrap thats all jibber jabber any way
thats why when you want to be annoying you turn it up. you listen to it at normal level it sounds good. yeah ponch you were right. going to hell. haha
14 speakers,2 amps,2 kicker L7 12" subs. my pete bumps
mike if you have it tuned right it doesnt just sound like BOOM BOOM BOOM, it sounds good and you can hear the total spektrum of the music.
You really have all that in your truck Al? cool.
