i plan on buying all this stuff off ebay or of people i know. i am trying to build a killer system. i want to know what the poeple on this forum think is better. 2 Rockford Fosgate T215D2 or 2 JL Audio 13w7. they will be powered by an Audiobahn A2300HCT. i also have another question has anbody have bought or heard of www.cbrstereo.com because thats where i plan on buying the amp and its like 1/2 of the original cost. just want to know if this site is legit. both the subs would be in custom boxes, made to specs.

well putting that amp aside for a minute the 13w7 is a great sub. The RF is good too. Running either one of those sub set-ups off of that amp is like running a ferrari with a 1.2 liter diesel VW rabbit motor.

i would take the HCT over hifonics, but thats THE ONLY amp i would take of audiobahn over hifonics, otherwise, i would look into jbl, kicker, mtx, things along those lines

Hifonics produces decent to questionable quality amps. Do not waste your money. If all you're after is loud noise, then go for it.

hey dont mess around with the cheap crap...go with the w7s and then get the jl audio 1000/1 amp it is way underadvertised and will put out about 1500 watts RMS. I promise u it will be the best sound u will get. trust me i got all jl and bostons stuff just dont mess around and RF (rockford fosgate) is the american sell out they SUCK...

Michael, you don't know what you are talking about so just sit down a shut up. There is no way you should ever power (2) 13w7's with (1) 1000/1. The 1000/1 is perfectly matched for ONE 13w7. A 13w7 will easily take 1000 watts EACH. And that amp doesn't put out 1500 watts rms, just so you know. Yes it is underrated, but not by that much. It is more in the region of 1100 wrms. So don't go promising anything!

Besides that, I agree about Rockford. They make junk now.
