    sound splinter is really nice, but if i was in the market for a sub right now, I'd look at TC sounds.

    ok bill no longer has the amp so i am looking for one now. i can get a Rockford Fosgate T10001bd that is 750W at 2, and 1000W at 1. or i can go with a P600.1bd that is 600 at 2 and $160 less. what should i do? i don't have much money but i dont know who loud the 600W one would be, and the T10001bd is a step up from the punch amps, and it would be runing at twice its lowest load. will the T10001bd sound better than the other? and will the extra 150W be noticeably louder?

    im going to try and get all this ordered by Monday night.

    ok hit a road block, my dad doesn't think i need this. i was planning on buying the sub this weekend building an incloser next weekend when i am done with finals, then decide if i can fit 6.5's or if i will have to go with 5.25's and buy them and their amp and possibly the sub amp. if i dont buy the sub amp then i would get it the next weekend.

    what are some reasons a 16 year old needs sq speakers for his dads car that he (me) gets to drive most days? i really need help with this guys i dont want to keep blackmax waiting any longer.

    Just tell him that he's taught you well, and this is why you want good tunes ;).

    he is starting to come over to my side now. is a hu with a 3 band eq ok? is this what i will use to adjust the speakers or will i use the crossovers that come with the momo's? I'm trying to make sure i have everything figured out so the stuff doesn't get here then i find out i don't have something.

    Just to let you know, the RF T10001 is going to put out closer to 2000w rms than 1000.

    if it puts 2000 @ 1 then will it put out 1000 or 1500 @ 2?
    1000 is 1/2 of 2000
    but 1500 it twice 750.

    my dad thinks that if i pull plastic panels off to look and to replace the hu that they will then rattle. is this going t happen? and if it is, is there a cheap way to fix it?

    Plastic panels are made to be removed and put back on a few times without any ill effects, they will not rattle after snapped back in...if that was the case, my truck would be a HUGE rattle can because I've had every panel off of that thing at least 3 times.

    Chevy better than Ford, Coke better than Pepsi, blondes better than brunettes and on and on.

    Dynamat works just fine.

    Well according to all the tests and reviews Ive read, apparantly Raamat (or however the hell you spell it) is supposed to be the best. So apparantly we're both wrong. :D

    Yes....... I've always just pulled my gear from one car to the next. I could not deal with not having good tunes for a year (at least a nice set of components).
