Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 300 Registered: Mar-06 | Ok i been getting qoutes on different setups and i found the most powerful one i found to be the earthquake setup, i hear they have good quality products. and the aps i have had before and i liked... i got pirces back for 2 of Earthquakes PH10000WD/1 http://www.earthquakesound.com/powerhouse_amplifiers.htm at bottom of that page and 1 of these 16 inch Earthquake Holees subwoofers http://www.earthquakesound.com/holees.htm I have got a quote of about $2,800 total for the (2) PH10000WD/2 and the (1) 16" Holees Sub is that a good deal?? Fully authorized dealer along with 2 year warranty on all products... does that sound liek a deal for it BEING AUTHORIZED, because i kno the local sound shops around me want over 1000$ for each amp.. i would be getting them for about 750$ each... and the sub for about 1400$ i would be pushing about 6000-7000rms through the sub for my daily driving.... but either way i got i still need to add the extra drycells, 300amp HO ect... but those are on a different budget |

New member Username: Shaf123Post Number: 4 Registered: Jul-06 | i found that 2 12" alpine 1222d subs and a MRD1005 1000 watt mono amp sounds good and i think that it is the cheapest way to go and it sounds great |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 301 Registered: Mar-06 | Im looking for the hardest hitting sub that i can find with exceptional SQ, i am going to try to get a local earthquake dealer to hookup one of these with 2 of the amps strapped togethor so i can get a sample of its power, i dont want somthing with good sq if it doesnt got alot of spl im more leaned towards spl over sq. but i dont want straight spl with crap for the quality like kicker and thought this would probally be best i dont mind spending the money on it if its good like it should be... you should hear this bass atleast 10 blocks away right?? my audioburns were heard about 6 blocks away.. before the amp fucked up |

Just make sure you build a crazy huge box for that sucker to pound in im sure you wont regret it. |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 302 Registered: Mar-06 | Well i have a 99 blazer with plenty of room in the back... i think i might have to sacrafice my backseat for the 6-10 batterys ill need. Do your earthquake amps get hot? what model are they? I had a PHD10000w\2 before but it got hotter then a b!tch.. but i was running 1ohm, EQ told me it supports it but it really doesnt >.< so it fried up for the most part. but do they get hot... 140F+ |

New member Username: MaxsqPost Number: 10 Registered: Jul-06 | I would lean towards MMATS and use the JUGGERNAUT 15 One of my close friends is #6 in the US in SPL and uses these in a Honda Civic. With 2 it usually hits in around 163's with around 6000-7000 watts. It hurt my ears for a week. But if you have a brass pair and really want the bad a%# subs....Memphis LVS subs are monsters and will rip your nuts off. |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 303 Registered: Mar-06 | I need to be able to keep space too.. thats why i am deciding on 1... i wont be able 2 fit 10 drycells in the back with 2 subs for sure...6000-7000rms needs lotta power.. i would also be adding about 1000rms in components later? |

Bronze Member Username: MaxsqPost Number: 18 Registered: Jul-06 | What kind of car? What are you trying to do with all the power you talked about in the beginning of your post? |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 304 Registered: Mar-06 | well im still looking for sum1 who can make me brackets so i can get a extra 2nd alternator installed probally a 6 00A if i can find it along with the 300A its a 1999 Chevy Blazer LT 4x4 4.3L Engine.... im going to need all that power to power the comps, the sub, dvd screens(eventually) and all that other type of stuff, i dont want a chance at all of clipping the power from anything.. but 6000-7000rms is going to need alot of power if i want to keep the voltage at a good 14V-14.5V |

Silver Member Username: Pike110Post Number: 112 Registered: Oct-05 | John, I have had two 12" earthquake subs for over 12 years and they still rock to this day. I have put them in several different cars and applications over the years. I have played the hell out of them and they still keep going. Earthquake isn't well known, but from my experience they will truly last forever. BTW that sub looks like a monster!! |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 314 Registered: Mar-06 | I was thinking... SQ is better with lets say a 12 from a 15 right? Would i be better off with 4 ALPINE SWX-1242D 12" subs and the earthquake amp, and run all of those at 2ohms, that would be about 6000rms right? Would they have good SQ and SPL? i am trying to figure out if i would even possible be able to fit all of that still though... |

Bronze Member Username: MaxsqPost Number: 21 Registered: Jul-06 | The size of the driver is not what makes it SQ or not, it's the box that makes all the difference. You can make a large woofer very sensitive with a small box and a lot of power. As well, you can make a 12 sloppy by putting it in a large box that doesn't help control the suspension. With that being said, I would opt for the what you have power and space for. |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 315 Registered: Mar-06 | Ill have power for all that i would need, im not worried about that, ill have a minimum of 6 yellow tops. Would it sound better with a smalled enclosure then, rather then a big one? Better SQ? I would prefer a sealed box setup if that keeps better SQ ported boxes ive heard sounds sorta sloppy (i dont like the sound of the air eblowing out sounds like a plastic bag blowing around or somthing) i was thinking if i go with the 4 alpines i will give them each about a 1.5ft. Sealed Enclosure.. also those togethor would give me about 6000rms at 2ohms right? ALPINE SWX-1242D 12" , also are these subs under or over rated? |
