they look cool but there is better out there cheaper. trust me. The XXX isnt on my radar. I owned the 05 xxxs. While they were low end monsters they tapered out quickly after like 60 hz. Sounded good? Sure. But when you have 2 15 or 18 woofers that you are slamming with 2000 watts each are you really after SQ? i checked two sites and both have it at 600 bucks a woofer. Thats sp4 territory. thats DD 9500 territory thats DC territory sundown nightshade territory. All those woofers are going to straight up face rape a xxx in output.

So much this. You should give us a budget and airspace we can work with in order to recommend woofers and amps etc.

aight i hear you it makes since. as far as budget im not really gonna have one I tend to buy stuff piece by piece, that way I can get what I want. I cant really remember the dimensions on my 01 caddy trunk(had them written down somewhere for this exact purpose) but do know im not against ditching my spare and stripping out my trunk to make way for a box.

That doesn't really help.. I guess all we can do now is recommend brands and you can see what you can afford and deal with yourself!

Look at Sundown, DC, Digital Designs, SSA, Fi, Obsidian Audio, Ascendant Audio.... there are a lot of woofer and amp choices out there so decide on what you want and then we can help you with any other questions you may have that are more specific.

this dc doesnt advertise their prices publicl. I kind of like it that way it makes them seem all underground and secret squirrel. i wil tell you though that the authorized dealers here on the forum (CJ18 and Corona_jeff and of course rusty) will help you with anything you want to know about them. pricing and such

Yeah so I just looked up the specs for the cadillac imma get and it said the trunk is 19.1 cf, yall reckon thats enough space to build a box for 2 18" DC Audio XL's?
