Beautiful setup!! I'm curious as to how the subs sound. I'm in the market to start upgrading my stereo.

5k, and thats because i bought the amps use...

800 subs
600 1000/1
500 450/4
250 deck
300 eq
400 cap
250 6x9
200 5.25
200 5.25
200 custom 6x9
600 box and vinyl
600 install everything

as for the sounds, its very clear and nice bass...one of the nicest setup you'll find especially in a gs... i wanted to upgrade to a 13" w7 but the shop told my mines way better and clearer...

and the things with jl is that the sounds travel...in side sounds real nice but when u stand up close on the outside it dont seem like its that loud but if coming from somewhere you can definately hear it coming...everytime my gf drives coming home, im in my house all the way in the back and feel the floor shaking... and thats even when its not up...imagine when its up to its max and windows down....

yeah don't do the 13W7, just stick with the 2 12W6v2's. You'll still get great qualtiy bass and deep bass with your setup. Plus you're moving more air with 2 12's as opposed to 1 13....that and the 13's are pretty muddy too

that's pretty good deal for the install too. props! that would have been closer to a grand for just the trunk at our shop.

you guys are killin me with your shop RCAs though

yeah it took me like 2 months of research to get it install at this price, and yea about the rca do you think it can make a difference? and also i ask them to run 2gauge wires but they said no need 4 is enough, whatchu think?

2 4gauges are alright, i'm going to run a 2 gauge and split into three 4gauges when i add in my second 300/2.

yes the RCAs will make a difference. you don't have to go outlandish like i did and use JL RCAs, but definitly do something better because you're dealing with good quality signal from those amplifiers.

and do you think that im runniong too much mids? for the amp its 450 and i feel like its taking some power from my subs because when i turn it up my voice takes over and the pound starts to increase....you think i should lower the mid amp?

it shouldn't take power from your subs since you have a capacitor.

remember that the JL amp is staggered as well, it's 150x2 in the front and 75x2 in the rear. I would have suggested to not do the rear 6x9's but that's just me, plus you're running MB Quarts they're known for being pretty harsh.

go to a good shop and have them build it around it so that you don't have to make the sacrifice. it's not that hard, just takes time and measurements.
