I would be ALL OVER that betteraudio if it didnt mean running 0 gauge wire instead of my 4 gauge... and i dont want to upgrade my magic wires.

I picked the Brahma because of the better (read: quicker) customer service.

Great sub ... check on Ebay, I saw many of them last couple days ago from the same seller. It is really rare on Ebay.

Maybe 1600 why not. 4 gauge REALLY STRETCHES IT. and not upgrading the magic 3, alt, or bat... I think I'd just cause problems.. We;re talking 170amps current draw on a um.. 100 i think... amp alternator.

maybe get the 1600 and hook it to a 4ohm wired Brahma for 500 watts of powahz. 500 watts would be NO SWEAT for my system.. thats like... 90 amps of draw.

But I'd need to port it for efficiency's sake for damn sure. I'd lose 3db easy going from 1000 to 500.

the NINe.1 is pushing 1000 watts at 11volts, at 14v it's 1250+, that's why I said at least...

if you're only going to give it 500watts I wouldn't go with a brahma.... I'd go with a Shiva or an E12k
