deathbeckonsu · Post by **deathbeckonsu** » Sun May 01, 2005 3:10 pm

im looking to upgrade my amp and subs and could use some suggestions. currently have RF 300w 2ch. and 2 12" subs, one pioneer and 1 RF.

this is going in a std. cab ford f150 and i will only have room for about 1cf sealed enclosures. i was thinking of a PG X600.1 and 2 octane XR12s.
this combo would cost bout 550 or so but i want to get every ones opinion to see if theres better equipment for bout the same price

right now at my shop i sell 2 elevation audio comp 12"s for 200, a box for 65-75 (subzone) and a crunch blackmaxx for 200( i know you guys dont like crunch but these arent really that bad for 200) that just about 500 with tax. they get pretty loud and still sound good. i dont know if you can get much cheaper than that.

Just to add to the list...check out image dynamics.

they have some listed on http://www.woofersetc.com
a little more than the elevations, but another good choice.

I have a JBL 1200.1 BP amp for sale, 600x1 @ 4 ohms, ~1200x1 @ 2/1 ohms, actual output is between 12-1400. has a lowpass filter and protection circuitry. check the forsale area.

WHOA, i just got a crazy idea..

Take that dam bench seat outa my truck and put in 2 APC race style seats, might need some mods to floor but would free up a bunch of room in middle for a vented SQ box or at least a bigger sealed box giving me much more options for subs.

This looks like its gonna start costing $$$, man y did i have to go and get addicted to car audio
