depends on box, quality of the wire ( will it be big enough to properly power)
and the vehicle. Is it a truck, car with hatch or trunk?


Not saying we can tell you exactly howloud it will be knowing all this anyhow, but someone may be able to guestimate

The car is an X5, so its an suv with a load of room. the quality of the wire i will buy it my self just recommend me what the specifications of the wire that will be appropriate to the amp/speakers. regarding the box, could u tell me how mant cubic feed the box needs to run this set up at its best. Thank you very much for your input.

ps just to get input on this system, what would u say it is, -average-above average-cant get any better (know it cant be the last 1 thats for sure) lol.

pss i have found a bassworx box for 89$ its on sale, is it good or it needs to be smaller/bigger

also if its not too much trouble, it seems that u know what your saying, if i was to build a box, what port sized will i need, how much cubic feet and so on, if you could tell me these things, it would be awsome, thanks in advance

What your getting is entry level subs, mid level amp


800rms is a good amount of power you can get it pounding for sure



You can use a high level adapter with a built in gain control or a cheap high level with a seperat line level control

I would suggest building a box unless the one it comes with is built to spec for those subs

I think that you will really want to build your own box . . . not only is it cheaper but you will get the sound quality you desire from it.
