sweeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!! so would you recommend these 2 subs over the 15" atlas?


i've heard alot of good thins on the atlas but that second loudest system stuff sounds nice.. lol i got 2 more questions theres the subs that run 2ohm and 4ohm/ so if i ran the 2 2ohms bridged it would be 4ohm/ and i ran the 4ohms bridged it would be 2ohm what would be the better ones(is there a difference) ALSO how is the SQ on those subs i know the atlas is GREAT but you said you heard these.. how are they

Don't hold me to this, but I'm guessing as well, that the CVR's maybe louder. The Atlas is claimed to have excellent sq though. Either way man. Both setups are cheap, and you won't spend a ton for an amp either. It's your call.

dude, joe, you should have heard this setup, every friday and saturday night, me and my friend go to "the scenes" lol, its office depots and pier 1s parking lot, and everyone with there fast as hell cars and loud systems shows up, there is actually like 3 loud systems, mine, mikes, and kevins, and we lal meet up there, and mike in his explorer has 4 15 inch memphises, kevin, have 2 15 inch kicker comp vrs in his extreme, and these are the 2 loudest systems i have EVER heard, they are insane, i like idolize these guys, they are like 28 and 30, they are teaching me a ton, andhoneslty im not sure about what i have learned on here, ive been told that ported boxes boxes will yield the best spl, and sealed best sq, but i dont know if i believe this anymore, mike showed me, they both work and own audioworks, and they both are using sealed boxes, and my Ti in its ported box doesnt get anywhere close to there stuff in sealed boxes,, so im doing sealed from now on because its just nuts. i dont know what to do lol

I've been waiting to buy one for sooo long man, it's not funny. I'm having problems raising money, nobody seems to want to buy guitars these days. I got an Orion HCCA 250 G4 sitting in my closet just waiting for an Avalanche though.

If something happens, and I can't get one in time though, I might possibly buy one from James. I'll probably get a SoundSplinter RL-P 15" though.

You definetly gotta get one since you have that Orion HCCA 250g4 amp. I tried to get one but had no luck. VERY RARE. I only want used and not refurb. But i decided on going with a CrossFire VR1000D so i got one new. Cant wait to push 1000 x 1 @ 1 ohm to it and feel it hit. I am going sealed also.
