brewer_brewer Posted February 23, 2009 Report Posted February 23, 2009 if you have the room then just double everthing you have now. 4 12's is a decent amount of cone area. CONE AREA 4 12's = roughly 452 2 18's = roughly 500 would be way cheaper to just get two more twelves and another amp then to upgrade to 18's and get amps meade's 4 18's = roughly 1000 and lots of money, time and knowledge Quote REFS http://www.caraudioclassifieds.org/forum/itrader.php?u=2026 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/44535-official-brewer-brewer-feedback/page__p__625998__hl__brewer__fromsearch__1entry625998 "you're not allowing natural selection to work, you're like the guy that invented the seatbelt"

Neo_frog Posted February 23, 2009 Report Posted February 23, 2009 Maybe I misunderstood. I thought you were saying Meade's subs were around $1000. Fully loaded 18s with shipping are around 500+ each.
