obsidian subs are great budget subs, i personally want to get a set of obsidian 18's one day. Also maybe look into hifonics amps, my BRZ2400 did awesome for me. Power acoustic and boss are a no go,. lol

Driving my 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 MEGA cab with the 5.7 hemi.

Audio: Two 10" Alpine Type R's ( 1000rms models )

Hifonics BRZ 2400.1D @ .5 ohm

Two Kinetic 1400 batteries ( soon to have XS power under hood )

Tsunami 1/0 Awg wire throughout truck.

Stock Infinity 7 speaker system ( Junk ) soon to be replaced, probably all Alpine.

Exterior: 17"Dick cepek rims with 33" Toyo MT tires

Bushwacker fender flares

Magnaflow true duel exhaust

LED tail lights with Projector headlights

Plasti-dip fun coming soon!

The amp is actually performing really well considering I paid 60 bucks for it

Nice and cool, even with bass boost up and gain halfway up

The subs aren't quite as loud as I would like, but they haven't caught fire, so that's a plus

I'm just really frustrated because a guy I know also has a cheap ghetto setup, 2 Kenwood Typhon 12"s or some crap and a 1000W kenwood amp (500 rms) and his sounds much louder than mine

He's got it in a small truck though, so no clue if that's helping him, but i still feel inadequate

2 obsidian 15's in a 6-7 cube box tuned to 32hz on a hifonics brz1700d would get you loud on a budget.

if you have foldable seats it'll sound better then mine did. I don't have folding seats. :( You shouldn't use bass boost on the amp is what i learnt from the time i have been on SMD and you could get a better amp for probably double the price. I only paid 128 new for my MB quart amp and i love mine. got it on the cybermonday sale at sonic which is coming up. if you're looking at getting a better amp i'd wait till sonic's black Friday/Cyber Monday sale to see if they will have an amp that you'd like to get.

I probably shouldn't use the bass boost, but everything i'm using is so cheap it doesn't really matter if it breaks

I'm just disappointed that a 14 year old RF amp is BARELY beat by a new PA amp that puts out damn near 4 times the wattage....

remember that the bass boost and gain knob isnt a volume knob! i see to many people destroy quality equipment because of that mistake. read up on gains and what not before you go to messing with them itll save you a lot of money
