RyanWatts Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Welcome mate I believe the crescendo 3k will be a good choice and cheaper than the zx2500. I will check it out. Thanks ,do you feel this amp is better than the kicker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-train-13k Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 dc is a brand. their very underrated and are awesome powerhouses some of the newer things these days are dcsoundlab.com sundownaudio.com audioque.com crecendo has some new amps out that are dirt cheap and are very strong crecendo amps you will have to call to place an order though Quote The IrishmanCheck out my build hereXL 4th order wall build logIn Progress:alpine cda HU4th order Bandpass2xl 15's1- ab 400.1 (gonna be two hopefully)4- Crescendo 8's2- xts crecendo supertweeters 2 sq super tweetsMb quart 4.125Mechman 270a alt1- xs D27003- xs XP3000 4- odessey pc1700seller feed back threadhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/136418-d-train-13k/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanWatts Posted June 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) I will do some reading and see what I can come up with. I found a thread on another site that had pics of a sundown and crescendo and the two look exactly the same, the guys were kinda making the statement it was the same board... I guess with build houses overseas this could actually happen.. And I'm talking about internals... Edited June 6, 2011 by RyanWatts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) I kinda got out of this when I was 17, just before DB Drag took off. What I find now is that it's not so much cone area but Xmax, power handling, and box build are what make DBs. Take time with your son to read from this forum, especially the stickies. Wish I had a dad like you EDIT: on the flip side, my 9 year old daughter (won her 3rd grade science fair project demonstrating how voltage affects a light bulb) wants to help me on my build, FTW!

toadking90 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) You will see lots of walls on this site. Welcome back to the car audio world. Just shop around. There are other brands of batteries than xs and alternators dc power is one that's a little cheaper than mechman.

RyanWatts Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the replys guys. On one hand I think it is coming way to easy for my son. My first system was in my 1966 fairlane 500(should have seen the look on my grandpa's face when he saw it,bought the Car from him...lol) I had two radio shack 10 and a radio shack 15 and a horrible pyramid amp. Then I had a couple Toby 12'a(any of you ever heard of Toby?). Anyway I think there is a good chance he my beat my 152 right out of the blocks...lol. On second thought anybody have a pyramid for sale...lol j/k Edited June 6, 2011 by RyanWatts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt14 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 You could run something else other then the kicker. Sundown is very underrated, but a little expensive ( still good for the power though). The crescendo 3k's from what i read and heard do have the same board as the sundown saz3000. Crescendo no longer carries the 3k and have a new line of amps avaible now. You could find some 3k's used, thats how i got mine. You could p.m. some Dc audio dealers on here and they can get you some prices on some amps and are very helpful. They dont publicly display there prices.
