Ouch!!! Just got back from getting the wiring I need... Anyone want to guess the damage?

[snakebite46]

110.00

[Ponch]

Close. $95.
But I just went and returned it. Turned out the guy sold me stuff I didn't need just to push his products. Plus the wiring was about $30 overpriced.

So tomorrow I'll be picking up a different set of wires from a different place.

[Ponch]

Allright, amps again. I really don't think I want to push 800 watts rms into this poor little 10" lol... Plus the cashola for that amp is going to be >$250, don't want to spend that much either.
Pretty sure I'm just going with the m650 because that's a little under $200 and has a smaller footprint, and I'm sure it'll power the sub fine...

[destroy_my_revo_15]

just go with the 850 and grow a pair. lmao.

[Ponch]

Man I ain't got the cash for that...Hey, why don't YOU buy one? mr. m450 lol

[Ponch]

John what's the high level input look like on your amp? it it some plug I gotta get??

[destroy_my_revo_15]

nope comes with the amp. unless you buy from the same guy as last time... lol

[Ponch]

Ok. Yea that's some bs, missing stuff. I just hope it works.

I'm going to see how much this sound and import place up by me wants. God knows, if they got 4 gauge wiring kits for $40, maybe he can hook me up with an amp.

What's the sub rated at for watts? 800 doesn't seem like it will hurt it and it will sound better/louder.

[Michowski]

500rms, 1500 peak. Get the 850. It will be just fine.

[Michowski]

might as well spend an extra 30 bucks and get the 850 alpine. You gonna be running that sub at 2 or 4 ohms?

[Ponch]

2 ohms.

Yeah idk, the guy at the Sound and Import audio place said he could match $225 for the 850 and have it in 1-2 days...I'm like woah lol

[Michowski]

got a link to there site?

[destroy_my_revo_15]

do it ponch. i wanna see what these subs can really do.

[Ponch]

Don't think they have a site.
But here's a link with their info;

Sound & Imports Incorporated - Joliet, IL, 60435-2870 - Citysearch

Just call, they're open 10-6 if I remember correctly.

[Michowski]

he's gonna get the 850. I know ponch isnt a big enough pussy to pass up that amp. I got faith in ponch for this. You will gain a lot of coolness if you get the 850. You know you want to. Everyone wants you to. You know what to do

[Ponch]

If he'll hold up on his word for $225, plus tax....Somebody need something rc related? I need cash!!! lol

[Ponch]

Oh yeah....A song that rivals Late Nite Tip for great bass (in my book at least) is Lil John-Rep Your City
Warning though...lots of swearing, lol. TONS of CLEAN bass right there.
