So tell me what to get and where: I want 2 12" subs. 1 mono amp 2 power that. component speakers and an amp to power them. I dont want to have nething so powerful becuz my my,scion tc, doesnt make an upgraded alt. and i dont want a extra bat. or cap. or nething like that. Thx

damn do you not want to llisten? then ill give you more choices

memphis makes an amp that is supposed to be 80% effienct it produces 1100 watts. i dont remember what it is called but look it up.

as for subs go with 2 brahmas mk3s they only need about 600 watts to get moving good. as for components, there is a set of powerbass extremes comp. evolution set i think for around 200-260 they sound very nice. or mb quart makes some pretty good ones too. as for an amp take a look at boston acoustics(and even there comps, awesome product) there you go
or for an amp check out mmats, they are exspensive but really nice and i think some are up to 70% eff.

Can you tell me the model number specificly, not the series. and i really need this cleared up. 2 600 watt subs are not going 2 require an upgraded alt. or cap. or battery?

here is what i would do.
get 2 12" ascendant audio Avalanche. $440 at www.ascendantaudio.com
custom made box = $150
jbl 1200.1 = $300 on ebay or jl audio 1000/1
infinity kappa perfects components $225 on ebay
zapco reference 350.2 amp $225 on ebay
0 gauge wire with distributor with 4 gauge wire and 8 gauge wire should cost u around $100-$150.

oh great, a fantasy system!
i would go elemental designs:

130v.2 4ohm subs 195.00x2 (600rms/sub)
Nine.1 amp 350.00 (1200Wx1)
Nine.2 amp 215.00 (100x2)
JL XR 3-way Set 359.00 (25-150rms)

that's about 1300.00 without installation.
the nine.1 is a class D amp so it won't cause a huge strain on your amp. it's about 50% efficient (like a 600W a/b amp).
all the ED equipment has great warranty and FREE shipping. http://www.edesignaudio.com/product.php?cid=2&cur=USD

the jl components are at woofersetc.com w/ 1-2 yr warranty (not too many ebay stores w/warranties). http://www.woofersetc.com/product.asp?0=314&1=317&3=1234

put 200.00 towards an audiocontrol (or other) eq of your choice with 24db/octave x-over for the subs.

the additional 2-400.00 i would put toward 1/0 aug wiring and installation.

just one of many options i would go with if i installed it.

dude. no offense. but you're acting like your paying us to give you advise. you're a newbie with a weak 1900.00 who "won't buy unauthorized" (including ebay).
ED is a "authorized" site because they make their own product. i tell you, lending hands to these inexperienced "i just want what everyone knows about" kids can be pretty useless. hope you find your aim though.

for 1900, if you want a good system your going to have to buy off ebay or online sacrificing the authorized warranty otherwise you'll get a sh!tty system for that money paying retail...hey i've bought most my stuff off ebay and i'm doing great...

Don't go with 2 12" jl w3v2's. You got about $1900, you could get better. go for 2 12" Adire Brahmas MK3 as Hunter said. as for an amp, a kicker kx1200.1 would work pretty good for the both of them.

ya the mk3 is the new version of the brahma. now you can either get it in dual 4 ohm or 2 ohm. it has shorter coils then the mk2 to make it more effiecnt and it has lost .5 of xmax, no big deal. go under mobile and just look for the brahma. i think the nine 1 would be a good match, it will be underpowering them a lil bit but o big deal. the nine 2 would be a good amp to run comps also. for comps look at boston acoustics awesome stuff, you might find some z series in your price range, if not you can look at image dynamics for them to.

try www.edesignaudio.com but the orion would work dependant on the enclosure size, and voice coil config. but i woudl rather go with the eD amp.

ednine amps might be good but why not go for other amps that are well know so that if u decide to change amps or upgrade later u will be able to sell those amps easier...know what i'm saying. just my opinion
