    one of these in a 1.8 cu ft ported enclosure tuned to 35-40Hz will rock HARD

    I would get the Kenwood amp...great sound quality

    what kind of bass are you looking for??? just because you have alot of space doesn't mean you need to take all of it up...one nice 12 in a nice ported box will sound good

    Azn, i listen to EVERYTHING!!! Most of the time i'll have some r&b, rap, and chill. I like my bass low and loud....

    I knew you would recommend the ED. Nothing wrong with that, i've heard a lot of great things about them. I was thinking of going with only one 12... After reading eazy's post how his one kicker was hittin' hard it kinda told me just to go with one for now. I'll most likely be contented with that. Which should i go with? dual 2 or 4 voice coils?

    dual 4 ohm...700 watts is plenty for this sub in a ported box.

    These drivers are oriented towards sound quality but can get pretty loud.

    I've getting a 19Ov.2 once my new amp comes in

    190v.2? damn, that's pretty expensive... What amp are you gonna use for that?

    since i'm pretty anal, would this be good for my DLS components? KENWOOD KAC-8403...

    yes...that would be fine.

    Ranger here has some first hand experience with the Kenwood 4 channels...he has one in his Ranger.

    I have an Elemental Designs Nine.1 amp...YES!!!

    upgrading all four door speakers was the FIRST thing I did

    The Ford "Premium" speakers that were in there were HORRIBLE...I mean my friends' Explorers with the same factory speakers actually sounded half way decent but mine sounded like sloppy puss and a wet fart combined.

    So I got four Kenwood two ways from Best Buy...my friend works there and I got two sets for 80 bucks...sound good but I wanna try to get 6x9's in my front doors for more midbass upfront

    Called ED today and my new amp is shipped and should be here friday!!! WHOO HOO!!!

    But for some reason Fedex won't email me my return stamp to send the defective amp back...ED said they've mailed be like 4 of em but I haven't received any


    P.S.

    Talk about thread jacking lol

    sorry thrilla
