FroznBeavrBALLs Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 im lookin at routers and wondering what is the amount of HP everyone looks for in a good router I've never had one before and my dad doesnt have one anymore, so i wanna look into getting one for christmas or something.lol.... Im looking at a DeWalt that has 1.75HP and i was wondering if thats too low for maybe car audio application. Meaning for maybe cutting double baffles. 2 pieces of MDF/birch. 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronic2001 Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 I have heard good things about PC. I bought a 2.25 Bosch kit w/ plunge from lowes and I love it. I haven't heard that good of things about dewalt routers. I have read some reviews about the motors being shit. Not sure how much power you need but my 2.25 goes through 3/4" oak with no problems.

FroznBeavrBALLs Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 ok. just looking around. i know Dewalt makes some good products and most of my tools are Dewalt and im happy with them so that was my first search when looking around. im probably gonna go with the 2.25 just to be safe. 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronic2001 Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 I use amazon for reviews sometimes. That's where I think I saw that those motor were poop. Just hate to see you drop the money on a dewalt and have it crap out after 30 minutes like some people were claiming.

kingsuv Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 I have a 1.75 and a 2 and both do the job just fine, Both are craftsman. I use the hell out of mine and haven't worn them out. Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
