    I've always wanted to try a bandpass in a trunk vehicle.

    I would do something like my brother's bandpass box in this car but I am not allowed to cut anything mainly because the gas tank is behind the back seat. but I could in my mustang which is where most of this stuff will go hopefully in a couple weeks.

    I have that same exact amp...its a beefy amp....heavy as hell.

    800 watts at 4 ohms bridged is a beast of 2 channel amp...only thing is that its a current hog when wired at 2 ohms though...at 4 ohms stereo its pretty good.

    Johnny I'm not sure about the CV subs...I've never heard nor had any experience with them...they look built pretty well though and decently beefy.

    I did in post 60 I believe.
    you have the same amp azn? it used to be my brothers 4 channel until he a JL 450/4... it drains the battery in the benz really quick when driving because it gives a warning of excess electrical consumption. cant upgrade the big three so I will have to deal with it.

    xtant came out in 95.and yes when they came out their stuff was awesome.

    but i dont know too much about them anymore to say go for it. at that price you could buy a whole mess of 12's from ED.

    50 each is a steal.

    The cerwin vega stroker hits just as hard and probably harder than the kicker L5 or L7s but it can take 2000 watts rms too. Sorry don't know about the v-max

    i was thinkin about kicker but idk yet. i am thinkin about 4 13kv.2's now cause 4 D4's would be perfect at 1 Ohm and they r only 50 bucks. but, they want like 60 for shipping lol.

    what do u all think would be louder and lower... 4 13kv.2's or 1 cerwin vega storker 12?

    the 4 would have more cone area but idk... cause the stroker looks like friggin BEEFY sub!

    I think you'd get more out of 4 13kv.2's. a lot more cone area there. they want $60 for the shipping of all 4 subs? that's not bad.

    how much power sould i give those subs? i was thinkin 400 or so but that is a lot of power to get out of an amp. or, should i go for 800RMS @ 1Ohm and use 2 of the same amps, or would that cause many problems in tuning?
