Two 10" Alpine Type X's with 2 600watt mono amps

RMS=1000
Peak=3000 <--EACH
or
Two 12" D6 Diamonds with 1 800watt amp.

RMS= 600
PEAK=1200 <--EACH

neither, you'd be underpowering both subs. why not post your budget and what your going for and you'll get some good recommendations.

do you just care about being loud, do you want any sound quality

if you just want loud 2 12" Kicker L7's KX 1200.1

if you want do get loud and sound good AudioQue HD3 and KX 1200.1

Maybe this is a bad question but in a pricerange of 1300 why were those the only systems you could think up? I dont mean it in a bad way but are like 100s of other options in that range. Now do you just need amp,subs and box or what is it you all need for 1300?

its late im tired and for the money L7's get dam loud as do the AQ's but they sound better

i also figured he might need a bigger alt and a decent battery a 1/0 awg kit, a box, maybe a H.u maybe a car alarm and all the other little costs that come along with car audio

I would so go with Diamond any day over alpine. Loud with great SQ.

What kind of specific headunit and what kind of subs and all that? Watch, I bet like 9 people reccomend audioque to you lol. Its the new bandwagon product.

For 1300$ if you bought all the stuff yourself, you could have a dope system.

What are the individual prices for everything you are buying?

You may want to buy all the stuff off the net or something and pay to have it installed so you get the most bang for the buck.

Heres a diamond system with internet prices
Diamond Audio D61500.1 Amp - 420$ shipped
2 Diamond Audio D6 15 inch subs 400$ shipped
Eclipse CD3000 H/U 220$ shipped
Materials to build a box to Diamond Spec. 50$

Then the other 210$ left over to have it all installed or w/e.

Much better bang for the buck than what they offered you for the same price im sure.

That amp would power those subs perfectly btw 1500 watts at 1 ohm. Much better than the 800 watt amp they quoted you with.

why dont u get some diamond d3's....you can get one for 85 shipped, and what are they only 200 rms less then the d6, get three d3's for 255 shipped, then get an amp that will do like 1500 watts at 1 ohm, (bc three of those subs will wire to 1.3 ohms)

i have two and they get plenty loud running at a little over 900 rms

subs 255
amp 300-500

then youl have like 600 bucks left
