Your looking at going from a 1000rms amp to a 5000rms. My mom just got the 07 mdx and I gotta say nice car bro. What are you looking for out of your system and im sure we can help you out. SPL (loud) or SQ (Quality). Also what is your price range on a sub?

IDK how do you think you're going to push a 600$ sub, and buy a 200$ amp. Think about that. I don't think you can get more than 1000w rms for 200$

lance pangilinan New member Username: Lance_p Post Number: 9 Registered: Jan-07	Posted on Monday, January 15, 2007 - 00:52 GMT thnx for the feedback again guys...very helpul...i think i want to buy some Fi btl where could i find them at besides that site?...do you think a 15" would satisfy my acura mdx? and what type of amp for this? thnx.=)
Yanks Fan Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13 Fi SSD USA Post Number: 2487 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Monday, January 15, 2007 - 00:55 GMT thats the only place to buy FI products...not even ebay. atleast ive never seen any up... the btl 15" will be very good for the mdx. and your gonna need electrical upgrades running 2000+rms. im not very familair with electrical upgrades so someone else will have to help you with that. personnally id get the dual 2 ohm btl and wire to one ohm and look for an amp that does 2000-3000rms at one ohm.
