wat type of sub? amp? box?

congradulations man, i hope you enjoy it.


my first system was 2 alpine type s 10" svc subs being powered by a sony xm2200gtx pushing 200rms@4ohm to each sub.

i had to for abotu 2 wks and i decided it was not enough bass for me. so i got a earthquake 700bx now which is good for 705rms and it will push a kicker S15L7 which i am waiting on and i am going to build a custom box with the help of great people on this forum.

It's a Cadence Ultradrive single 10 inch in a custom ported enlosure installed into the back wall of my trunk with the woofer facing outward.. (best sounding position i experimented with). Anyways It's being run off a 150w rms concept amp. I'm actually quite overwhelmed with the amount of bass I can pull out of that thing. And there's absolutely no rattles in the car when the bass is poundin! that was one of my biggest worries.

I had 6 fifteen image dinamics in a 91 firefly.
The bass was getting good untill my roof came in and windows slid out then I lost all bass.
So the moral of my story is THERE IS NEVER TOO MUCH BASS !
Thanks for reading..
