  1. the aq is rated at 1200 but it can do more than that with good electrical

    like i said on the first reply in your other thread, aq1200 would be great for those 12s, an extra 150 watts per sub is not worth the quality aq will give you over ap, this is what i think

    Notice you said good electrical .. Uh oh. LOL. I was going to run it on a stock, then eventually buy a battery for the back. So... We shall see how this goes :) Thanks for the advice and help, really appreciate it !

    im sure you will be fine on stock for what you want, im just saying people have clamped the amp at higher than rated, by running clean pow2er with good electrical, basically it will do whats needed for your subs, but upon being able to afford the big 3 or better alt, this will help the amp perform much better

    Yeah well of course, I'm gonig to do the big 3 and 1/0 . So... That should be fine for now, and eventually, when I get tired of these subs + amp and I want something louder, I'll buy a battery, an alt, and go bigger :). But I think I'll be satisfied with this system for a while.

  3. hell yes there is a difference. the AP does do rated power but its cheap and dirty. the AQ is a much better amp in many ways.

    in a small system you want something that will sound good. no sense in sacrificing SQ for SPL when the end result still wont be loud. the AQ will help you have a better sounding sub stage.

    To be quite honest, I wish I knew what SQ for SPL meant. :/ Anywayss, what do you mean "Cheap and Dirty" . Like, I know its cheap, that's why I'm asking if I should get it :) But dirty? Like does it make the sub sound cheap? Or what? And would the AP make my subs knock harder then the AQ? Even though I know a few hundred watts can't be heard, but idk.

  4. I'm not sure if there's a limit to how many threads you can post in one day, but I posted one earlier, so if I'm breaking a rule, I apologize. So as SOME of you guys MAY know, I've been trying to get my system for a while. And silly me didn't know that asking questions on a forum would give me answers so different from each other, its amazing. Beyond the point, I'm going to run (2) Sundown Audio SA-12's Dual 4 on either one of these amps. (1) AQ1200D or (1) AP15001D.

    I heard the AQ is more expensive because it is made with "higher" quality parts, but the AP can do just as much damage as the AQ, and is about half as cheap. Do you think it really matters if I go with the AP? I know the AQ has a LED light that tells me if I'm overpowering the amp, but can't I just but a virtual volt meter and put it on my dash or something? I would really love to buy an AQ2200D but I'm a teenager and I can't just pull money out of my neighbors apple tree. Whoever can answer this question, I really appreciate it. Is there really a DIFFERENCE between the AQ1200D and the AP15001D? Thanks.

    *I would also like to say MERRY CHRISTMAS once again, and I hope everything went well for everyone. And also, I would like to thank TeamHT & Kranny for helping me out throughout my "clueless" stage and giving me advice on how to get the best system for the money. Thank you to anyone else who had to read my dumb and stupid threads and answered them nicely. Best of wishes to all, and Merry Christmas.

  5. Upgrade electrical on a car he doesn't have? :)

    Go for it just make sure to order everything so when you get your car its all ready to get tossed in

    You seem like an intelligent guy. May I ask you a question? Since we're talking about electrical, would I be able to RUN 2 Sundown Audio SA-12's D4 on an AQ2200D with a stock alt. But I'll get a battery in the back, like 2400 watts, or something like that. But I won't have THAT battery until like 2 months after I INSTALL my system. Make sense? Or am I just wasting words. :/

  6. Hey there guys. Is it a good idea to buy the subwoofers + amp before you even have the car. I have an idea of what car I'm going to get, and I'm 90% sure I'll get it. But eitherway, I'm still going to use the same subs + amp no matter what car I get unless it's going to be a SUV which I highly doubt. I want to order 2 Sundown Audio SA-12's D4 with an AQ1200D. Can I just purchase it, or should I just wait?

    P.S. Merry Christmas to everyone and I hope you all are having a great day so far.

    Thank you.

    i'd double that wattage but yeah.. 2 12's will fit in almost anything fine. go for it

    Cant :/. Stock alt. When I upgrade electrical, I will prob buy 2 Fi BTL's with 3k each? When I get the MULAAH

  8. shit man dont cheap out on a head unit man..those jensesn im pretty sure done have the worlds best pre volts and may not be as clear on the voice side

    I really wish I couldn't. But I'm 16 man :( I don't have a job. I have my money from savings. 800 to spend. Buying 2 Sundown Audio SA-12's Dual 4 (395$) with an AQ1200D (250$), + wiring and all that = maybe another (75$) . Ill probably have around 100 to spend on a HU. But Ill try and find another 300 to buy that Pioneer. And what do you mean Jensen has the worlds best pre volts? Explain more? Sorry for the lack of knowledge. Getting new into this hobbie, and taking as much advice as I can

  9. fuck that look up a pionner avh-5200 dvd and you wont be disappointed, beats any valor or dual or jensen...

    hit up the link man

    http://cgi.ebay.com/PIONEER-AVH-P5200DVD-7-In-Dash-Touchscreen-DVD-Player-/360320321157?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e4c3c685

    edit yup thats the one man that im telling you to get hit the link and its about almost your limit price..are you able to fit a double din in it>?

    Looks like a banging HU. 450$! Ill check that out if I have the money after I buy my SA-12's and AQ1200. If I do, Ill def. get it. If not, Ill probably go with a Jensen.

  10. i have a coupe on 17s lowered 2 inches

    i would do 18s on a sedan and lower it on skunk 2 lowering springs.....really the sedans dont look good with anything bigger then 18s and the 17s look really small unless your slammed

    if you do 19s your gonna need to shave the inner fenders also dont do staggered it looks goofy on 8th gen civics

    LOOK up 8thcivic.com then look up "what will my drop look like" and they show all different rim sizes and lowering kits :drinks:

    Alright Ill for sure check it out. Thanks
