ArmoredPersonel48698 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Alright...by the end of the summer, I'm planning on getting a system for my car. Already on my list is a 220 amp alternator for it (a 1998 Honda CR-V). Now, I'm a VERY tight budget so get a massive amplifier is out of the question along with big high powered subs. What I have planned so far: Alternator = Power Bastards 220 amp for Domestics and Imports (Fitzall-220) Subs = 2 x Hifonics B12D4/2x Hifonics B12D2 or 2 x RE Audio SE12 (if those are even out there still) Amp = (if I go with the Hifonics subs) 1 x Hifonics BXi 2010D or (if I go with the RE's) 1 x Hifonics BXi 2608D Receiver = 1 x Pioneer DEH-P6000UB This will be my first build, so any and all help would be awesome. I'm leaning towards the RE's, but I'm not entirely sure yet. Fi, Rockford, and the higher end Kickers, unless I can find a good ass deal are out of the question.

AI James Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 you dont need 1krms for se you only need 600-800 at most get a audioque 1200 or sundown 1200 or the many other actual 1200+ rms amps out there with the 2 SE's if money permits stay away from hifonics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enemyofsilence Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 imo i would go re subs instead of the hifonics. i personally like the look of them better you can check out these kickers i got too if youd like Quote Team Bass-Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmoredPersonel48698 Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I was leaning towards the RE's in the beginning. I had heard good things about the hifonics subs. I'll dig around and see what amp I can find.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 yeah its fine, but if you go overboard people might get annoyed But yeah, dont put more then 800 on a SE if you get the older model, im putting about 900 to mine and they get warm every once in awhile, and its not good Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

ArmoredPersonel48698 Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Alright then...here's what I want to get to save some cash: amp = http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_11671_...ch+P1500.1.html sub x 2 = http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12409_...nics+B12D4.html Or I can get the two RE's. If I do go for the RE's, it looks like I'm going to have to bust my ass over the next month or so to gather up the cash for them. I'd love to have the RE's, it's just that they're a tad bit out of my budget. I mean, I am 16 who's got a website to run, two others to moderate, soccer to deal with, ebay to manage, and a life of my own. Mind sliding me a couple hundred bucks? My questions are: 1) Will that amp do nicely with either of the subs I have listed? 2) Will my cars stock 95 amp alternator be enough to supply power to the amp, new head unit, and charging system?

Team_DC-Derrick Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 when looking at amps, dont look at *max/Dynamic/Peak* power at all... always look at RMS values, that wont be that bad for it but i suggest http://www.caraudiodeals.com/audiopipe-ap15001d-p-1452.html that one does very close to rated 1500 rms... if not more.
