Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 101 Registered: Mar-06 | hey can you hook 6 12's up to one big amp? how well would that work. or would it be better to go with 3 smaller amps? i wanted to hook up 6 kicker compVR 12's to a hifonics XX goliath. would that work? |

Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 169 Registered: Feb-06 | it will be around 1 ohm and the xx is 1 ohm stable plus the xx can handle .5 ohm but in short time |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 102 Registered: Mar-06 | what i saw it said the xx goliath is different watts at different ohms. how do you get an amp at different ohms. how much are the RE sx12's? i already have 2 compVR's and im still deciding on 4 or 6. do you think i would be able to fit 6 in the trunk of a 97 honda accord without taking out the back seat? |

Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 185 Registered: Feb-06 | dude the sx is way louder than the comvr but the vr get loud but not loud as the sx if you want alot put 2 18 inch sx man i will respect you if i see you in the road with the xx and two 18 sx if you need more imformation this is my 18 sx is 320 shipped look https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/210823.html |

Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 187 Registered: Feb-06 | cuz dude everyone talks about re audio thats one point with 2 sx 12 almost all the people can do 14-150 db in the proper box and thats loud thats 2 points look at realmofexcursion.com and see re audio sx and thats 3 points if your going fot spl get re audio mt but is around 500 and that will beat the crap of a solox plus it will have better sq im talking on the 12 model just one of those and dude you will be doing it for comps if you have the right box. look around in the foroum and you will see how popular is the solo x almost all the people hate that sub but if you want more than the mt look at the new xxx, digital design |

Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 188 Registered: Feb-06 | dude if your going for spl get 2 12 sx 1000 watts rms each if you want the best of the class get two mt both models in a proper box and get some noise cancelling headphones cuz its gonna be loud as h3ll if you dont beleive me get the fudge out |

|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 189 Registered: Feb-06 | dude get two mt's and you will get real loud more than 4 sx |

|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 106 Registered: Mar-06 | how much for 4 RE sx's and what kind of amp would be good for them. and how much. new alternator? |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 107 Registered: Mar-06 | so why do people have like 4 JLW6's when they can just have like 2 W7's know what i meen? |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 193 Registered: Feb-06 | they just want to show stuff cuz for show its better 2 insted of 1 they want people to look but you can do more than up 3 subs can using only one with my sx 18 inch i will be doing more than 3 10 can do soif you dont belive me ask someone else and he will tell you the same plus look around at the foroum and you will see alot of questions like 2 12 vs 1 15 and you will see |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 108 Registered: Mar-06 | ok well i want at least 4 12's |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 194 Registered: Feb-06 | you dont want to compete you want to show that diferent |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 109 Registered: Mar-06 | ill compete too but im not gonna compete everyday ya know. so how much for 4 RE sx and what amp and how much |
|
Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1074 Registered: Sep-05 | why do you want that many subs? Take up more room, and more amps. Also need bigger boxes. I suggest you go with 2 real loud subs, rather than 4-6 12's. That's just dumb imo |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 110 Registered: Mar-06 | i dont need my trunk. and i dont wanna spend thousands and thousands on one big amp and like 2 really expensive loud speakers and with 4 subs i can get a better sound quality than 2 pounding away at least i think i can. |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 197 Registered: Feb-06 | if you want to make those re audio sub hit the harder get the re audio amps you have to call them for prices this is the link www.reaudio.com dude if you want to compete get 2 mt and thats it its all wat you need but if quantity is wat you want get 3 sx is loud enough if you want the 4 u will add 3 db but its need for comp too so is up to you |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 111 Registered: Mar-06 | i can get the kicker compVR's for 80 bux each so thats why im leaning towards that |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 198 Registered: Feb-06 | no dude you wrong u cant sometimes yeah but is not the quantity is the efficiency so get 2 mt rather than 4 im talking in 12 inch versions and two re audio amps and dude get a room for the trophys |
|
Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1077 Registered: Sep-05 | I really think that 2 mt's would cost more than $320 (80 x 4).......if that's what you want dude, then go for it. Just make sure you power them correctly and give them the proper space (enclosure) they require. It's no good to cram 4 subs in your trunk if they are not going to get the recommended cuft of space. It will sound horrible if not done right. It will probably even sound better if you had 2 in the right enclosures than 4 in wrong enclosures. If you decide on 4, just make sure you have enough room to do it properly before you buy anything |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 206 Registered: Feb-06 | thanks alot young james to explain it more simple but he want at least 4 so let him do that if he wants but i rather wait more time to get more money and buy 2 12 mt they are around 500 each i think or 2 sx 12 less than 300 shipped each. better get one 18 inch sx is 320 shipped and get a well box and you will make more sound than those cvr if they are in the proper box minimun 4 cubic ft( but u dont want 18 so is up to you) |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 112 Registered: Mar-06 | i think im gonna go with 6 CVR's just cuz it will look crazy when i pop the trunk so would the hifonics XX goliath be a good amp to use if i wanted to use one amp? and what alternator and how many yellow tops do i need |
|
Silver Member Username: Scott_debakerPittsburgh, P.A. U.S.A. Post Number: 135 Registered: Feb-06 | damn dude just listin 2 them they know what they talkin about if u want loud just get 1 15 or 1 18 fock 4. 1 will b loud enough |
|
Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1082 Registered: Sep-05 | ^^agreed, like I said, It will probably be hard to build an enclosure for 6 subs at the proper deminsions, so if you put them in the wrong box, they are all gonna sound like poo anyways. My advice to you is measure the trunk in all angles, and figure out if you can give all 6 subs adequate breathing room. It may look good, but when you turn it out, it sure won't sound good |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 113 Registered: Mar-06 | if they all dont fit in the trunk ill extend the box into the back seat alittle. ill have enough room. but still wondering if that amp will work noone has told me yes or no or anything |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 225 Registered: Feb-06 | ok do it, you will impress people, but you are last in the competition you will be pist so dude show off is not the same than comp , comp is loud music, show is just good looking if you want show off get some audiobahns aw1206t you can get them for 120 bux each but man just use one 18 or 2 15 re audio but is up to you |
|
Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1085 Registered: Sep-05 | which dvc config were you looking at? |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 240 Registered: Feb-06 | series i think cuz the cvr are dvc 4 ohm so it will be around 1 ohm 1.5 ithink to be specific |
|
Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 267 Registered: Feb-06 | i was think of getting a really loud multiple sub setup too. what would be louder 4 12" cvr's in a ported box or 2 15" L7s in a ported box. is there anything cheaper that will get really loud (not audiobahns). i would like to keep my amp that is 1800wrms at 1 ohm. |
|
Silver Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 248 Registered: Feb-06 | maybe two re audio sx 12 inch or 1 re audio mt u will rule dude |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 114 Registered: Mar-06 | hey man not everyone wants RE man. i want 6 fukin 12s bitchezzzz. and i dont care how they get in their. and since i can get the kicker ones so cheap then im gonna get those. i know RE is a damn good company but some people want sound quality and not one bigass 18 that will sound like $hit but be loud as fu,ck |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6314 Registered: Jul-05 | if u want the 6 12's cvr's go for them, they should get louder and sound better then the mt, just as long as u power them correctly... "maybe two re audio sx 12 inch or 1 re audio mt u will rule dude" The 6 cvr's would still waste the sx's in spl and sq... |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 118 Registered: Mar-06 | THANK YOU MAN someone that thinks i should do what i want. ok chauncey i know you got some pretty expensive $hit. what would be better 1,2, or 3 amps?. should i get one big amp to power all 6, or should i power 2 on each amp and get 3 amps? |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6318 Registered: Jul-05 | i would run 3 amps,,if u can, so the ohm loads wont be all difficult.lol(1 for each set of 2) |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 119 Registered: Mar-06 | ok now the sub is 400rms and 800max. so what would be a good amp for 2 of them. and i know ill need a new alternator but how bout battery. right now im running a yellow top. would i need more than the one? |

Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 120 Registered: Mar-06 | aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh $hit thats alwase a queston. for the amps? hhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..................... i was thinkin of stiking with hifonics since their amps can put out some real power. but what could i get for 1000 bux or less for the amps. |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6320 Registered: Jul-05 | u could run 3 A8000T's the go for about 100+shipping on ebay, 800rms @ 2 ohms, that would work perfect |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 121 Registered: Mar-06 | what are those? are they any good? how good is SPL. right now i have an SPL X2-1600 that puts out 800rms watts. it was 170 shipped on ebay. but how much real power would they put out compared to a better amp. you think it would be good to just get 2 more of those? |
|
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 110 Registered: Feb-06 | two of these will power six cvr's: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=14803 but you really think you can fit 6 12"s in an accord? maybe 4 with a custom enclosure i'm thinking. |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6321 Registered: Jul-05 | 2 of those would not power 6 cvr's they only put out 70% of there rated power so 840*2=1640 and he needs closer to 2400 rms, not even close... SPL amps sux they don't put out there rated power either... The amp i said does a benched 800 rms @ 2ohms, The Audiobahn A8000T, would do the job perfect, dont even consider anything else unless u can afford JL |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 122 Registered: Mar-06 | well im gonna have 4 firing into the trunk and i was thinkin have the other 2 firing into the interior and taking out the backrest in the back seat. think that would give me my best SPL and SQ? and i would need 4 of those amps to fully power them all. their 400 watts rms and that amps 600 rms. 400x6=2400 600x2=1200 which is what that amp is. 600rms |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 123 Registered: Mar-06 | the A8000T is only 400 watts rms. 800 max. i would need 6 of those. not trying to load up on amps man. |

Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 113 Registered: Feb-06 | chauncey, thanks for the info on the hifonics. didn't know they were that underated. just saved me from buying one myself. |

Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 124 Registered: Mar-06 | how bout 3 of these. http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=14804 |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 125 Registered: Mar-06 | their not underrated man. all amps run at about 70% of what their rated. well most all amps |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6323 Registered: Jul-05 | overrated, and yes i no, no amp runs at 100% Efficiency, and companies no this as well thats why good companies will rate the amp first (birthsheet) b4 selling it to a customer so u no what u are really getting.. The only other way to see how much ur amp is producing u could bench test it urself and see.. "all amps run at about 70% of what their rated. well most all amps" My sx1250's are rated at 1250 rms put 1 of them puts out over 1500 rms |
|
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 114 Registered: Feb-06 | yeah but i didn't think the hifonics were one of them, just thought they were good budget amps. and i'd stick with the audiobahn amps suggested for your setup. they only run 400wrms at 4ohms, but you'd be having them at 2ohms at which they're 800wrms. |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6324 Registered: Jul-05 | they are great budget amps, even at 70% u can get 1200rms for around $200 that is a great deal |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 126 Registered: Mar-06 | thats why i said most all amps. JL puts out what its rated and i know kicker puts out more than its rated. but do you think that 3 of those amps would work for what i wanna do? and what do you think of my idea on 4 in the trunk and the other 2 going into the car? cuz i herd if you tried to do 6 in the trunk it would sound worse and not as loud as just 4 because of the way the custics are and everything. |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 6325 Registered: Jul-05 | 3 of those would work perfect, "THEY PUT OUT 800 RMS PERIOD" and if u make the box correctly u should have no problems with sound since ur taking out ur backseat and all |
|
Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 127 Registered: Mar-06 | ok now. alternator, batteries? how many yellow tops would i need? i have one right now. and alternator? how much are those and where would i get one? |

Silver Member Username: Rustysurfer916Oviedo, FL Post Number: 131 Registered: Mar-06 | its an accord 4 door. 97. and im not gonna have a back seat or if i do it will be very small and not to comtortable of a ride for whoevers back their. |
