ChampN252 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 I'm just wanting to get peoples opinions in this. I'm alway discovering new brands that make really nice high-end equipment, but their prices are usually high. The brands I recently discovered were Ground Zero Audio and Hertz (I know about their comps, but the make nasty subs and amps). How much do you guys think is the maximum you should pay for a quality product? I not asking how much you would pay, but the maximum for quality. I think $1000 for a good 4000+ watt amp is fair. I would pay accordingly for the increase in power. I think for $1000, the Cadence ZRS-6 is the amp to beat. Subs are kinda tricky to me. I could see me spending $1000 for a sub if it could have a ZRS-6 without sweating. I know subs like Steve's, FI, T3, TC Sounds, RE MT etc. are all good, but vary in price.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 i wouldnt spend 1000$ for a 4000~ watt amp.... when you can spend like 1200 and get a 8000+ watt amp DC level 5s can take power, im tossing around 4000 rms a piece to them and they dont even get warm..

Dub7Banger Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 It all depends what you want. Because regardless of price no sub is an end all sub.The JL Audio w7 is quite expensive, on ebay, around $750. At one time I was sure that was the end all sub, but then I found this forum and bang, so many more reasonably priced options. Price isn't everything. And because I swings from Rob's nutz, you should get a DC. Level 4's handle 1000RMS, XL's handle 1500RMS, and Level 5's handle 2k RMS, but from what i've heard safely handle 4k daily. Quote Warning, you are taking advice from a noob with 0 install experience at this point, any advice I give is strictly based on information gathered via the intrawebz and lots of forum surfing over a period of 2 months If you are considering buying a DC Level 5, do it. Don't think about it, just do it. It'll work. go to lowes get bricks wait in yard. throw said brick at vehicle. If thats me and that just happened to me Im going looking for him after that. 1. Goto lowes 2. Get some bricks 3. ??? 4. PROFIT!! Profit from everything. LOVE ideas like this. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
