siucsaluki11 Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Id go bigger. Im at a total of 1200wRMS at 2 ohms on my subs and 200w RMS at 4 ohms on my mids and highs. I put a HC1400 under the trunk, and think ill still put a battery in the back when i can afford one.

I would like something bigger but my budget is about $220 Someone I know said he'd sell his shruienken bt120 to me for 200 but I know its more than a year old & used I don't want to get it and have something be wrong with it. I rather spend a little more and get something new with a warrenty Quote 1998 Pontiac grand prix gtp supercharged2 12" Obsidain Audio V.1 on a 2011 zx1500.1 at 2 ohms. 20ft of Knuconceptz CCA 0 Guage. 2nd Battery is a Shurken BT-120.
