Loud Highs

Recommended Posts

Ok so basically it seems that ever since i started into car audio my system went from 2 10" sealed p1's.. and about 12 new set ups later, 2 18"HDC3's walled with an MA P30001. I dont know why, maybe im just addicted but i always seem to NEED to go louder. Im fairly satisfied with my sub stage, i am going to order an MLA module and get a deka batt. So with a 200A alt, a yellow top and hc800 i really cant go to much bigger seeing as i dip into the low 12's at times.

On with my question.

I really want just stupid loud highs, i already have a hifonix 440ix or whatever it is powering 8 speakers, then an rf 200.1 for rear fill, and a crunch amp thats putting out around 75wx4 for my center stage. How do i get louder? more speakers or what do you recommend, i really dont have room for any more drivers in my truck. Maybe all i need is a bitchen set of components and a big ass amp?

Heres a few pix to give yas ideas, i wish i didnt get 2 D2's because now if i wanted to run about 2500wrms to my subs id have to do a recone and go with an amp 1 ohm stable, so i dont see that happening anytime soon. My budget is around 350 and i wanted to focus on mids/highs.

rear fill consist of 1 set kicker ks components, regular ds coaxles, power series coaxles, 3" kickers and 4" kicker coaxles.

i mean do you honestly think by switching brands i will get louder... or do you think its more less the wattage and location?

i want loud, but clear... i dont want it to sound harsh by any means, i dont want it to turn into one of those european spl cars. lol.

you can run 1 ohm per channel if i am reading the info on this channel right

just wire each sub up like

and put 1 on each channel

unless you want to run it at 2 ohms

armyguy- i have them wired 1 ohm per channel now.. which is 2 ohms bridged for that amp. Any other amp would see two 1ohm impedance as a 2 ohm load... if that makes sense. i did have them wired too two ohm then plugged it in and they barely moved.

Those horn tweeters look interesting and i have seen them on installs, if you could get a vid that would be cool, or tell me some more specs on em? what they are used for n whatnot.

thanks for the help
