I sat in a Explorer with 12-18" Sundown Nightshades + 10-2000D Sundown Amps + 2-50.4 Sundown Amps.

This truck is LOUD and not just loud, but ear-popping, windshield flexing, door vibrating, chest pounding, blow the trunk off of somebody else's car...typeof bass.

The Guys work 5 minutes from me and I was driving by last night to go get pizza, decided to stop by and check it out since I see them all the time working onit.

Shout out to Gary and the other 2 Team Nemesis members for allowing me to go deaf/stop my heart for 10 minutes while getting a demo.

This is THE LOUDEST BASS I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE.

Looking to get a system for my 02 honda accord lx sedan.

Have no idea about car audio

Someone direct me to a decent setup? Not too expensive

 

[lemonade41]

2 12" SDCs, Type Rs, or SSDs on a AQ 2200 in a proper sized box tuned in the low 30s
as far as speakers go,, well thats a toss up, but everyone says Pheonix Gold RSD comps are some of the best bang of the buck comps, as far as amps for those,not too sure since its so many out there
Cd player, do you want a single din HU or double DIN screen?

 

[mr monday niight]

2 re se 10's sealed on a audioque 1200d would be a nice beginner setup

speakers u can go with the phoenix gold rsds or the ppi 356cs(current forum boners)

 

[daprescription]

I'm trying to do a little setup in my car, nothing crazy, just something to increase quality over the stock.

or

I know it's not the best, but with my discount its a really good deal. The only question mark are the speakers.

[that kid daniel]

nope.

is it hard to do?

 

[mr monday niight]

Sealed boxes are easy

ported are a little more difficult...

if u listen to rap, r&b go ported

if u listen to rap, r&b, rock, jazz, techno... go sealed

sealed would be .65 cubic feet before sub displacement

Ported would be 1.25 cubes(before port and sub displacement) tuned to 32 hz

PM Lemonade41 for some tutorials since i can't find any @ the moment

 

[that kid daniel]

appreciate it . i'll probably just go with sealed.

 

[mr monday niight]

forgot to add

if u go sealed, get the 12 inch

box for the 12 should be 0.75 cubes before sub displacement

 

[that kid daniel]

alright cool. appreciate all your help sir. if i have questions i know who to go to.
