my first subs almost became 2 sony 12"s with a sony amp and wiring, that stuff hit pretty hard (hard enough for me), didn't sound so great bu tit amazed me for sony.

sadly, my dad thinks its a bad idea (ironically, its my money that i earned. only trhe bank account is in his name. oh jesus i can't wait until i turn 17..ohhhh)

Wow now that i think about it, I built a box out of 1/2 plywood for them, and had them hooked to a PA amp. No wonder they didn't last too long.

I had a friend who bought some of those Thumps, I remember after like 2 months, the cone was all sun faded and the surrounds were falling off.

He didn't like how we were all laughing at him.

i loved alpines old head units...like the 7909 obviously but all the ones that had a rotary volume knob with bass and treble slides above it...of course this may just be because i remember them when i was younger.....

first system was a kraco slide out cassette reciever with a kraco power booster eq running 4 panasonic 6x9's and had a pair of pioneer 3.5's in the dash run off the head unit and heres the real shitter......had a pair of pyle pro 10's runniing off of a pyramid pb300...those of you in the know will remember the pb300 as every poor kids wet dream...300 watts of whining,squealing affordable fury...........

Hmmm

I would take back the 5 12" JL W6's I had...

Two sealed and 3 in a slot port box...

Dammit guys now Im going to have to start going back to the auctions to pickup equipment!

Where are you

by **Chris from Washington** » Tue Jun 07, 2005 8:10 pm

Hmm,
The only thing I wish I still had, that I don't now.

Was my Alpine 7525.
Even tho, I most likely wouldn't be using it anymore it was a good deck that had the cool shuttle type volume control. I thought that was the coolest and easiest to use deck ever.

But it got stolen a few years back
