excited about new stuff...

[Hamsterman]

Just orded my new subs... first time having subs so i am really happy, just got a single kicker compcvr 12" and an mtx thunder 342 amp- sub is like 400 RMS and the amp puts out like 340 bridged... a little under powered, but i think it will be nice- just thought i would drop that line

should be nice...
i still have my 1st subs that i bought...want new ones, but its decent enough for me...

I still am running my first pair of subs too. Its almost 4 years old already. Image Dynamics IDQ10's.

Hope the 1 12" sub will satisfy your bass needs.

i think it should.... cuz it will be almost 350 watts RMS... loud enough for me not to go defffff

Let me just say that you will never be satisfied. Hopefully you'll realize that sound quality is what you want more so than loudness (unless you also like big aluminum wings, 17+" rims on the rear wheels of a FWD car, neon lights galore, stickers, etc) and a rattling trunk. Just having bass is what you want, any bass is better than none, and any bass should be enough. Otherwise you'll end up like me, stuck between two stages with almost nothing, and it's horrible this way.

he he... well i am not a huge car audio guy- the stock system i got is really nice thus i just wanted to add bass... the 6X9's are nice- but i have a lot of neons in my tunk and this will top it off... plus i am a bass head

Nate, come back when you actually have the stuff

Nah, I'm happy for ya. I remember when I got my first system. I was excited just like you. I have to agree with Stealth. Looking back, I wish I had focused more on SQ than SP. SP is kewl in highschool to impress your buddies, but you're not playing it for them. It's for you.
I think you've scored some nice equipment though Let use know when it comes time to install. Don't forget to read my DIY: Sub and amp install in the sticky

[Hamsterman]

oh no problem man- sub came to my house today... amp and box come friday- i am going home this weekend (my car is @ home not @ school with me) so i will install the stuff and take some pics of the end resultsand put them up.... installing an amp and a sub should not be very tough since i helped a buddy do his system and after all the other neons and elec crap i have done, i am not saying if is hard for you guys either, but i actually like installing stuff like that, the process is just as much fun cuz afterwards you are like i just finished time to bump

and yeah i have contemplated all the rants and raves abuot what to do with a system when you buy it... the thing is i really like the highs and mids i get from my factory system... just i love bass! too late to be showing my system off in highschool so i just can't wait to be bumping the hell outta this stuff when i am by myself! more than that i just can't wait till the summer when i can have my car back... but until this weekend I wait to get home and play

~~thanks for replies
