$5k tahoe build


Recommended Posts

Ok new to the site but not so new to car audio. Been browseing threw the forum for almost a month now and have learned a lot from what I didn't already know. I have a 03 chevy tahoe with a pioneer double din, alpine type r speakers in front and rear doors. 2 l7 15s in ported prefab box runing off a older power acustik 3000watt mono amp. I have sum money saved and will be getting taxes back soon. Ill have roughly 5k to spend on new subs, amps, alternator, batterys etc. My electrical system is all stock. I have yet to do the big 3 but plan to soon.

I was thinkin I really want to run 2 18" re xxx. But undecided on which amps or amp to run them. And how many extra batterys/ alternators. If I can't afford the extra batterys/ alternators in build then ill only run 1 18 xxx till I can get w.e else I need. Any help would b awesome on this so I can get my own build thread goin :). Thanks

depends on your goal for this build but you can do ALOT with 5 grand. i would look into crescendo amps, they're beast for not much $. what ever subs and amps you decide on i would check out dc power for alternators maybe get a duel alt. kit. and some really nice batteries because with that kind of money you should have lotsss of power.

R.I.P '01 blazer you treated my ears well until your transmission blew up.

The XXXs are nice. I don't know exactly what a TSNS cost, but if it's less than the XXX, I'd get two of those or the DC Level 5s. I think you'd be happier with either of those last two subs.

Like was said, though, if you get a couple TSNSs, it'll be high to give them both the power they want. You'd be looking at 10k.

Also, if you're looking to stay with RE, I'd recommend the MT over the XXX anyway. They're pretty beasty.

As far as my goals r is to b loudest in my area .. which right now is only 6 l7 12s in my buddys tahoe. But also sound nice. I can build my own box and install almost everything so that's saves me sum money. But I think I'm gona stick with the xxx and see how they go. I can always swap em out later. I've heard good things about the audioque amps and was wandering if I should go with 2 aq2200 one for each sub or go with one aq3500 for both. Or even 2 aq3500 one for each sub? And go with 2 alternators and how many batts? Master plan would to eventually have 4 18s.

insted of the Re's get two tsns18" there beasts

with 5k you think he can get the 8k to power them? could yes but thats pushing it alittle.

What are your goal bro? XXX are nice subs!

i was going to suggest tsns but thats me and he dosnt have to give them 5k to be honest two audioque 3500s would do amazing thats what i plan on doing unless i get a deal on a sd8k or something like that

OP if you want prices for tsns pm me
