System Design

[THEKINGsBACK]

OK I have a Bit of a issue, Im Having to many different ideas for system design.... I have a Budget for 1400 bucks Amps/Subs Everything else is Taken care of 2 D3100s D3400 and a mechman 270 alt in a 2005 jeep grand cherokee I have space for 3 12s maximum and cant really fit anything bigger than 12s, Im tryin to achieve mid 140s on the meter not really a huge deal if i dont get it but im going for lower tuning prob 33hertz. I just need some options or and idea is this really even Feasible or should i look into some other area of bass the main thing i want from this Build is AIR FLOW...

Options or Suggestion on Equipment are welcome

what if you went with 6 10's? that would get you more cone area than 3 12's so it would probably move more air and could fit in around the same space.

Even though you got the sub amp taken care of it'd be nice to know how mcuh power you are working with.

You'll be hard pressed to get some new equipment, especially if you plan on running 5k, on that budget. You should look in the classifieds and look out for something like some audiopipe amps, or maybe a used 5k of some sort. You can probably find one for between 7-800. That will leave you with a good 6-700 for subs alone. Is wire taken care of or is that included in your budget? Do you have proper deadening done already? What about funds just to purchase wood and assemble your box? Because 1400 just subs and an amp(s) is fine if you can deal with a used amp or used subs, but if you have to fit other install needs into the budget you will be even more hard pressed and might need to tack on another 2-300 onto that budget. I would still suggest scouring the classifieds for some used larger amps or a couple lower powered budget amps, a audiopipe 3k would do you just fine. Then hit up DC or Sundown for some prices on subs.

Then I would look into what the guy below me posted. The Crescendo amps are pretty stout, and his suggestion will be right around your budget, maybe a bit high if you go with 3 of the Audioque subs.
