Re: Subwoofer question.... (Metal_Wulf)
As long as they arent playing the same frequencies you are ok
for example, you can run two 8's at 70-100, but your 12 at under 70.
most likely if you do play them at the sme frequencies, then they will sound like crap.

Re: Subwoofer question.... (Nevermind)
That would be really loud for about 2 seconds. After 2 seconds your car would probably be filled with what was once the contents of your ear canal.

:hurray:
I'll have it all hooked to a line driver so I can turn the subs down to a more normal level for everyday use, but I get really irritated when POS cars pull up next to me thumping and rattling and having to hear their crap over my mine, so I want to be able to turn up my subs to **** them off :D

Use a decent head unit with a non fading output, that way you can control the sub independantly. Some amps have a remote volume control.
A single 12, like a Brahma, will net you over 140db.

I'm hoping the ED NINe.1 has the remote... I was also looking at a Auidobahn ABD40X if the amp I get doesn't have a remote.
As far as subs I was thinking of going with Elemental as well.
I have good Pioneer HU(top of the line like 4-5 years ago), but eventually I want to upgrade to an Alpine 7995.
