I was hoping someone can help me come up with a 150 daily set up or at least as close as I can get with the space I have with that being said from the floor to the roof of my suv is 35 and from the floor to the window line is 18 my width is 33 and my depth from seats to hatch is 30. I don't want a complete wall but if I have to go above the window line then it would be okay just not too high. I have a pretty good electrical with a 275 amp alt from Ohio generator and with big 3. So for a budget on subs it would be around $900-$1000. For amps I would like to go no bigger than the saz-3500. Most likely buy 1 or 2 d3100's for batteries. So I hope y'all can help me out.

First of all, ALOT of people dont know how loud 150 DBs is really...it is VERY loud. Just because you see those numbers and higher thrown around on here alot doesnt mean much. So getting your hopes up on a 150 DB setup may not be the way to go about it. Put that as your eventual goal. Numbers are honestly less dependant on the equipment and 10 x more dependent on the box and install. You can get 150+ on a single 10" but it depends on how good your box is.

As for your amount of space, looked like you have about 7 cubes to play with. You dont want your port to close to the back of the hatch or it will choke, so id say dont go longer than 25". Two 18s on high power in a smaller box may work, but that amount of space will be great for 2 15"s. With about $1000 on subs, id say 2 15" DC lvl 5s (or xls if you want to save some cash for more electrical/bigger amp), 2 15" AA mayhems, 2 15" DD 9515s. Theres tons of other options, but those are all very strong subs very capable with the right install of a 150 or higher. 2 D3100s plus your alt should be fine for around 4-5k watts and later you can add a couple more batteries if need be. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Lol I fail at smileys, its hard to remember the code for each of em...

Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks :)

Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.

If built you shouldnt have a problem. This of course how and where the meter will be to break 150's. I run a Sundown 3500 myself on 2 15's and break 150's in meca.

So what your saying is with the space I have make a 7ft^3 box with any 15's of my choice or just the ones you mentioned?

two 15" havocs on a 3500 at .25ohm. it'll do a 150. how long? :shrug:

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Also I didnt see you say what this was going in. Port up subs up may be your best bet. Theres a TON of options and each SUV is different. Subs back, Port back/Subs back, Port up/Subs up port back...etc etc. These people getting 150s like its nothing normally know what works best in their car and what doesnt. That or they have a wall. :peepwall:
