How do some of you guys drive around with these huge insane set ups? I mean 4 12's, 2-15's, 1000, 2000, 3000 watts?? I just finished installing a 15" phoenix Gold Xmax and a Kicker 400.2. I'm running 484 watts to the 15 and it is sick! I honestlty never thought I would say this but "It's too loud!". When I turn it up on a big bass song like "My System" by Daz Dillinger or "Late Nite Tip" 3-6 Mafia I feel like my head is going to implode. My vision goes all blurry and my clothes shake like crazy.
Is there something wrong with me?

hummm, sounds to me like someone is very happy with his new sub!! yeah you'll get used to it...
when i had 2 15" X-Max subs being fed by a bd1000 (about 500 wrms potential to each... don't think i ever really gave them that much though cause i had my gains set properly and never turned it even close to the max) it got blisterng loud yet i could handle it easily... not exactly a comfortable level but with the T-tops off the Z, it was very theraputic to the back muscles!

my new set-up will see a single 15" with about 2000watts on burps... can't wait to see how clean it is...


happy to see your enjoying the sub!!

Marco

That has to be the stupidest thing I have heard this week. [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]


Gettinbig - the only thing wrong with you it seems is you have a good sense of self preservation. If it's too loud for comfort then turn it down...

Yeah, I know I will get used to it as I go def from it! Keep in mind this is in a single Cab sonoma with a cut through. A fat *** sub like that in a little Sonoma is hard on the ears, but I like it more and more each time I listen to it. Thanks Marco! It kicks ***.
