I dunno lundam. I went to an audio shop here and they told me kicker comps are good subs. Whats this dual 2ohm and stuff? I know Im an EXTREMELY newbish to this audio stuff. I know absoulty nothing.
Hey ludlam, i want to build a new box for my 13.5". the box i have keeps sliding around and is ruining the carpet in the trunk. maybe you could help me with a new one? let me know and i'll get back to you about it.

Remember the more amps, speakers and power you'll have to get a better battery, alternator, caps.
there isnt really a kicker amp that goes with it.
and as to the alternators, batteries, caps, all that stuff , ive run upwards of 2k rms with no problems and only upgrade being an optima red instead of the stock batt

thank you.
first i gotta know which model of kicker comps youre gonna get.
kicker comps are really low-mid quality subs, so the amp wont cost all that much money
as to box, i could get technical, but i wont
sealed isnt as loud as ported, but theres more sound quality there
ported gets louder and goes lower, but it sounds boomier. theres less clarity and defenition to the bass
thanks man. so i will get the ported box then. sorry for being such a noob. the shop im gettin it from this one audio shop for $700 which includes 2 subs, amp, box, and installation. that a good price?
comp vr's (next level up from comps) go for 150 a pair on ebay brand new
comps go for 90 a pair on ebay brand new
an amp for them would cost you 200ish max
wires are 40 bucks
box is 60 or 70 online.
so if you go for the comp vr's thats 470 online, 400 for the comps..
youre paying 300 for an install
for that price id do a full fiberglass trunk if i lived in tampa.
also im gonna be honest with you, youre gonna want those subs sealed, because they just sound like utter ass ported. all you hear is boom boom and no defenition in notes.

thanks man. maybe i can drive to miami and you do my install. you said you would do the fiberglass trunk for 300? dam they wanted 2000. dam ill pay you 300 for you do to that. move your ass to tampa so you can do my audio work. lmao
**EDIT** since i know jack sh** about this crap, point out some good kicker subs and amp for me. can you do that. i appriecate it man. i want 2 12's and whatever 1 or 2 amps that i will need. one more thing how long will it take you to install 2 12's and amp with all the wiring and the box? a few hrs? maybe i can drive down there and you can do it for me. i dont care about driving cuz i love to.
sim. dotn get the kicker vr's i was gonna get those and got the new sony instead yes sonyt suck but they didnt sound as bad as the kicker subs.. get sealed box if u do. and install is easy if u buy the bos/sub's,wires, etc i can install for u in like 1-1.5 hours max but best thing would be go ahead and get fiberglass trunk now instea dof box ow and trunk later.. and make sure if u get new subs then u def need new 6x9's and new 6.5's and then run new wiring for the 6x9's and 6.5's and then get new tweeters for all of it. sim if i were u call up nikc R i can give u his number if u call me and he has nice 6x9's and 6.5's and tweeters and wiring for all for sale . but i know u like new stuff... also u need the headunit install kit. i bought the metra kit from partsexpress.com and omg it looks sooo OEM same color exactly kinda hard to get it to fit perfectly but once u got it damn it looks good. and u can use ur EX closing drawer!..anyways ttyl.
