Lets see 4 drivers( 2 tweets , 1 6.5 and 1 4in) in each door, a set of dual midrange speakers (.75in tweet and 2in mid) on the dash, two 6.5 on the rear deck, and 2 12s in the trunk. 3 amp, two rated for 70x2(so thats ok) but one amp rated for 1200rms( screwed there). But i guess thats the midwest for you, and nelly, you're screwed, better get a better pair of Air Force 1's to walk in.

This attempt to stop people from putting systems in their vehicles is a total crock of sh!t...the bill says that a police officer can impound a car just for having a 300w+ amp, 10+ speakers, or a speaker larger than 12". The way they back up this bill is pretty much by saying "they can produce sound levels louder than needed for normal listening" That is like impounding a car w/ a 300hp engine because it MIGHT break the speed limit.

Then by 6 DD1008's and 2 orion hcca 275g4's. (just for the h3ll of it) that way i would have 6 8" subs, 2 tweets, 2 6.5's, and 2 "150w" amps (it would be LEGAL, and they couldnt do sh!t to me )

I have the bp1200.1 and a sx12 but i got it at 4 ohm, i was thinking bout wiring it at 1 but i dont know if its too much for it or not?
marshall white Gold Member Username: Southernrebel Monroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 1965 Registered: Mar-04	Posted on Tuesday, January 31, 2006 - 00:55 GMT I have mine wired to 1ohm...it takes 1200w+ like a champ. If I were you I would wire that 12 to 1ohm, too. Just make sure you have an FMOD for a subsonic filter if you have that SX12 in a ported box!

Jake Davis Silver Member Username: Solacedagony New Jersey US Post Number: 779 Registered: Oct-04	Posted on Tuesday, January 31, 2006 - 17:26 GMT But the new measure would outlaw possessing or installing any car stereo with a speaker over a foot in diameter; having more than one speaker 10 inches in diameter; more than 10 speakers overall; more than two amplifiers; and any amplifier over 300 watts. Can only have _1_ 10" speaker. According to that. I don't see how they could actually pass it. Someone on the caraudiocentral.net made a good point that this is analogous to being given a speeding ticket for having a sports car that can go 200MPH, even though you're exercising good judgement and not speeding.
