How does this sound (audio)

[dirtysmurf]

well I was wondering if this was the best for my price range and the best for the car.

2 of these 12" subs (http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/1409)
1 of this amp (http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/1392)
1 of this box (http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/490)
and this amp wire kit (http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/490)

the total would be $512 american, is there anything better than this for the price? would I be able to install it my self? I have never installed something like this before, I already have a panisonic head unit.

Looks good.

It'll sound pretty sweet but a friendly warning here: if you're into rap or hard hitting bass in general those subs will give you that flat popping sound on hard bass notes. They only go down to 28hz. Also, that amp could possibly ruin those subs after a whiile.

[dirtysmurf]

I listen to rock, will the bass be good? and what should I do about the amp then? if it might ruin the subs about how long would it take to do that?



is the price good?

the rockford fosgate subs are bad ass. but 2 things with that amp u might want to go with the HE 1 OR even the HE 2 not the HE's and also i would make sure that box is going to be the right air space. to me that box looks a tad to small and also it says something about plexiglass Rockford fosgate does not sound good in a plexiglass box. i would call Rocford fosgate or call the audio store and ask them what the air space sould be then find a box that maches

[JoeyK]

They might be ok for most rock, as long as you don't thrash on em too much. You'll know when they're at thier limit, they'll make a real flat sound w/ the bass drum beat. Keep the amp turned down just a bit. If you If you push them too hard too much the voice coils will eventually give. Like previously mentioned, I'd go 4 the he1's or he2's if I were you.

[dirtysmurf]

If I moved to a HE2 then the rms would change

power range 100-400 watts RMS (200 watts per voice coil)

will the amp still work?

Rockford Fosgate HE2 RFP4212

$97.00 2x
$194.00
Rockford Fosgate Punch 801S

$295.00
Raptor RAP122

$27.00
Rockford Fosgate RP 1734C

$42.00
Total: $558.00*


so thats the new setup witha biger box but will the box be able to fit into the trunk? that might be a problem, anyone know?

i didn't read into it, but is there something wrong with that stuff? those prices sound awful cheap to me. the he2 would handle i think, just as long as you didn't listen to a bunch of rap or take them to competition. if you watch your gain settings you should be fine.
