Well I got the itch and the only scratch is OBSCENE BASS!

I recently had the opportunity to sit in the self proclaimed "loudest truck in the south". Bret has a full size ford with 4 DD9515s and 2 M3s wired at .25 ohm which normally does SB at 157ish.

Him along with several others are talking me into DD and I've had several shops make me some pretty good offers on DD.

TO THE POINT:

I have several different people give me opinions on what I should run, number and size of woofers wise. Whether it be DD or DC is of no concern right now, however this is what I'm looking at:

Either 8 12s (dd3512s or dc lvl 3) or 4 18s (dd9518g or dc lvl 4)? This would be going walled off in a 2000 Silverado Ext. Cab (layin frame :ph34r: )

I've had the people with CRXs tell me 12s and the people with full size trucks and suvs tell me 18s. I personally like the 18s but because this will be a daily street beater, I like the efficiency of the 12s.

Now just for the sake of knowing I will be starting off running a zx2500.1 per pair of 18s (or per 4 of the 12s), then moving to zx2500.1 per 18 (or per pair of 12s)

also I want this baby to be able to hold it's own in SB4 USACi style, so I may be moving to a Z1 per sub :ph34r:

I've heard several setups I like 6 15s, 8 12s, 4 15s. But there is just something about looking at the expression on someone's face when you say you got 4 18s. Then you point to your vehicle and they see a truck and their jaw drops another inch.

loudest in the south is a big thing to say when how many of the big competitors are from other there in florida and the south

deep south is what i think they mean. he's got the state record in sb4 and mod 1001-2001 (i think) for mississippi. Which considering he has some pretty major competition from bobby (6 15in mojos and 6 memphis 2400watt amps)

his truck was loud . . . . i couldn't breathe in it and that's enough for me :)

but honestly loud full size trucks are few and far between (too many crx, mini trucks, and vans around)

You dont have the proper air space to run 4 18's in a Silverado...

I didnt anyways. :ph34r:

we shall see :ph34r:

edit: i'm really only going off the opinion of 2-3 HIGHLY experienced people who have seen and sat in my truck. All of whom said I have PLENTY of space for 4 18s. I have a 16 cubic foot box in there now that doesn't even go past the window line
