Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 I have a friend with a 2018 GMC 2500 Denali. He wants the loudest system he can get in it while keeping mostly stock appearance. After talking about it, he has decided to go with a box under his rear seat. I told him he might need to get a lift for the rear seat. Can he do something like 8” subs like the ct sounds or something else? I am not sure how much room he has yet. Would 6 6.5” subs be a better choice than the 4 8” subs? His budget is around $3k. I am open to recommendations. Thanks for the help!
dolarbilz Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Meh, either or, I would do 4 8" subs...in a Bobby Gately box (shop sky high) you could probably find better power handling 8" subs then 6.5"..
Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Posted January 31, 2020 Thanks. I was leaning towards 4 8” subs. i have looked at the Meso 8”, the ssa 8”, some from b2 audio, and a lot of others. Seems to be some good options out there
Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Posted January 31, 2020 Wow those Gately boxes are expensive! I was thinking they might be $600-$800 but $1400? Wow! Just sticker shock I guess. I did tell him expect to spend as much or more on the box then the subs or amp...
Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Posted January 31, 2020 Can those CT sound Mesos take 1250 rms? I know there will be box rise ect... The Amp I am thinking about does 5k on the dyno at 1 ohm. Thanks
dolarbilz Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 What amp are you talking about? Not a CT sounds fan.. I would definitely run SSA evil 8" could pair 4 subs with a SSA 2200.1
Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Posted January 31, 2020 Will probably do the Synergy WFO 3.1D. I have the 2.1D running at .5 ohms now and love the amp. Also Curt over at Synergy Is super friendly and has been very helpful. Great costumer service.
dolarbilz Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 I really don't think you need that big of a amp for 8" subs.youll just kill them. Keep in mind of mounting a big amp can be a pain..plus electrical to run it.
Scotnemily Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Posted January 31, 2020 He has the electrical already in place. But yeah that could be a little Big for the 8"s that's why I was asking. I know the WFO 2.1D does 2800 @1 ohm so it might be a better choice...
CstrokerV Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 The dc m3s 8” could be an option my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/
