    here. lemme give ya some backround as to what ive had. i went from one 12" kicker l5 with a 600 watt amp. to two jl w3's off the same amp.
    im lookin for a lot louder. in two 15's.
    i had chosen the fi's only because my friend who's handle im using right now just got a btl. i like the idea of having round 1500w-2000w running my system as i know no one in my area with something like that.
    i just want something that will blow my mind from what i've previously had. If 1 15" will do that then i'm all ears. i just like the sound of two 15's.
    But this is the exact reason im on here in the first place. Just to get tips from ppl who know the hobby way better than myself and would give me a better opinion than any shop i could walk into just worried about sellin me the most expensive s*** on the rack

    That head exploding thing is crazy true, man. Its happened like 3 times just today! :eek:

    Anyway. Ok Ill keep the fi's. And im thinkin the sundown amp. I think this is the one you mentioned probably will not require an electrical upgrade. (im not against electrical...im against the money right now for it..haha)

    Someone mentioned if i had the right tools i can build a box..well what tools are those and ill tell ya if ive got em. lol.
