Supercharged DCs Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Wtf do you mean when you say 3kw 1.5kwrms? Are you trying to refer to the peak, which is complete bull? Save up some money, $1200 will allow you to get 4 AQ HDC318s I believe, but that's without shipping. Quote Bassless once again.

Save up some money, $1200 will allow you to get 4 AQ HDC318s I believe, but that's without shipping. ive been thinking about the Dc level 4s, or Fi btl could always save up for a good bit longer was just hoping for something now, but budget is pretty bad, so ill just wait it out and deal with the old optimus 400 and 2x mtx i got in there atm lol i meant 3k max, 1.5k nominal (decided to go with some 15s instead ended up with less room than I first thought) Edited July 17, 2011 by Grelko Quote Optimus XL-400w amp 2x 10s IMPP 400w 2x something or other in dash 2x 35w radioshack 8" full-range AcDelco factory radio "frankenstein'd from my dead buick" Dodge seats 1984 Chevy G30 full size 1-ton van "Rust Monster" Progress - around 15% primer/patching Sold the van in 2014, had it about 75% done, never did get the system in it.
