spending $10,000 on a system


Recommended Posts

audiosavings has kinetik 2400s for 300 shipped, or really close to that, and they work, but just are not the best... but far from the worst..

I would get 2 alts, get a stetsom 7k2d or 2 and call it a day, but thats because im biased on them amps, because i ran it at .1 for awhile and when i did testing i had a rise to .5 and it ran like a champ. I also beat hte living piss out of it and it wouldnt die..

Im also biased towards DC subs, BUT FI/AA will take care of you as well, I had 3 18" Lvl 5s in a b pillar wall doing 55s on music at the headrest, it has alot to do with the box. you could prob get 1 7k on 4 XL 15s and get mid 50s.

but electrical is a must.. i hate sitting at 9-10v when playing full tilt.

and, you really need to get pricing for all the equipment... i spent 5k total on everything, and i mean everything including labor...

LOL you shouldnt be anywhere near 10k if you go by real pricing

did you clamp your stetsom 7k to see what it put out?

DB don has his at 1 ohm nominal @ 18v and is clamping 14k off two of them. Not sure what his rise is, but he has 2 300ish amp alts and 6 or 7 batteries.

yep its the 1 ohm amp, but, starting at 1.4 rising to 2 ohms even, i get 6000 clamped at 10v :)

edit

wired it to .175, fluke read 000.1 ohm lol and rose to .5 and still clamped 6000 out of it, so i wired it back

wow i didnt realize those amps were such beasts LOL

i have like the only one that can handle all the abuse i have ever put to it, all the 14ks and bigger would die on the shit ive done to it, but no one that knows me can say anything negative about the 7K2D

if you get any stetsom amp, get the KD, the KE series is supposed to have some issues

how come you think the bigger ones would die out faster? so you think the 7ks are the best choice?

because i know a few people who im on their team with, who have had a total of like 16 14ks while they were using stetsom, and they would just randomly blow...

and they were clamping the same power im getting out of my amp, out of theirs at 18v lol

That doesnt make any sense HAHA wtf. your making me not want stetsom anymore, maybe you got a lucky amp.. or did you mod it??

maybe i was a lucky one, or maybe just the higher amps suck ass, i dunno, but i cant say anything negative about my 7k2d

Hell it looks like your looking into great equipment and if you have the electrical to back that power up I see no reason you wouldn't be up in the mid to high 150's. Just need a proper design too. If you want crescendo amps let me know and ill hook you up. Im a sale rep for them and their new 2

channel for mids and highs are sick!

U should have just told him to drop it off here, and cut me loose.

Stetsom and SD both have had numerous issues, but 99% of them are with their higher powered amps.

yep, i havent really seen any issues with the 7k or lower models, just the 9k or higher of either brand

Id honestly look into them or the SD 8ks. Ive talked to a handful of members on here who LOVE their 8/12k SDs. The 16ks sound like they have major issues sometimes though, and arent really a daily amp. DC is always a good option for amps too now though. :drink40:
