milburyl Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Posted November 17, 2014 Ok, you have a vision then. I am more of a blend it in kinda guy then show it off so someone can jack my shit guy. LOL i am sure it will look great. I would be working on my shit but the old lady was sick after a week in Cali on vacation so tomorrow i will have updates. I was just browsing your Photobucket pics. I had(still have) that same amp, except i have the end caps for it. The Rockford Power 1000a1. Damn fine entry amp into serious car audio. I also have a SHITLOAD of Rockford equipment that Ive collected as well as some old Orion HCCA stuff. Its an addiction. I purchased the 13W7 this summer though and DAMN. It is the shit. If your wanting a SERIOUS sub and can find one at a good price, I highly recommend the JL Audio 13W7. I'll get a video of it bumping in my SUV, and it literally moves my windshield an inch. My buddies all think that the window is gonna break. And its on 1000 watts, stock electrical. I dont have a rear view mirror. I cant find glue that will keep it on. Even the auto glass place couldnt believe i knocked it off after they glued it. Thanks man, ya i had my 1000a1 running at 1 ohm for a while on the T0D412 and it never even really got warm. That wasa my first box and i fucked up on the tuning so it was at like 47hz but still hit pretty good. Well take a pic of some of that RF gear... Hell Ya. Thanks for the JL tip but that shits way spendy up here in AK. The SQ subs where budget replacements at the time but thinking about getting some Sundowns to replace them just to try. Next build in wifes car will Be a SQ set up all the way around. But sons 94 GMC SLE Z71 is next for this summers build. Yeah, JL is expensive here too. East Coast Canada. I found a place online that was having a mid-summer half price sale and scored it for $600, plus $200 shipping. Which is still about $400 or $500 less than most retail places here.
milburyl Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Posted November 17, 2014 I hear the Sundowns are good, but mostly for SPL and burps. Not the greatest musically. I almost bought a 15" RE Audio XXX instead of the 13W7, but found the JL on sale for less, so i got it instead.

Wont be until next summer but looking to change it up some after i finish these winter upgrades.

And they are decently priced too.
bcbrassard Posted November 17, 2014 Report Posted November 17, 2014 Ya i will look into them. I keep flip flopping on which direction my system goes. SQ-SQL but i dont mid paying for good quality products. Not the soon to be wife minds but thats her problem! lol

bcbrassard Posted November 17, 2014 Report Posted November 17, 2014 Ya those look alright, I was looking at the 10s and they rated for 650-700 RMS. Hopefully they are underrated a bit, running the T1500 i am throw close to 1000 rms to each SQ HDS310s now.

Hopefully they are underrated a bit, running the T1500 i am throw close to 1000 rms to each SQ HDS310s now. According to reviews, they are equivalent to a JL W6, actually between a W6 and a W7. For a fraction of the cost. Read the first guys review on the 12" link i posted.
bcbrassard Posted November 17, 2014 Report Posted November 17, 2014 Read the reviews, dont sound like a bad sub to try. Can get the 10s for $179 each, not a bad price.
milburyl Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Posted November 18, 2014 Well, here it is wrapped and resined up. Used an old t-shirt for this part. Would like to thank everyone for looking and all the input and advice. Far from done, so MANY more questions to come yet.
