Thanks a lot guys. Your knowledge and willingness to help out really sets this forum apart from the other car audio forums, where most people just flame whoever puts down their sub.

sinister and bwcad1, good looking out on just the general outline with the numbers, that's basically what i was looking for.

glasswolf, i've definitely learned from your repeated attempts to teach us noobs that the entire setup is WAAAY more important than what sub is used. i get that a pro can make any sub do what he wants it to.

geolemon, thanks for the differentiation between the boom car and a pure spl car. i was starting to get that sense since the mt doesn't even have a warranty. clearly its gonna be used for burps.

i'm finally getting a grown-up job and want to get something that sounds real good. i definitely value sq, but i'd be lying if i denied that some part of me wants to be able to flat out clown the obnoxious fool bumpin at the stoplight.

i'll probably end up on one of the bandwagons. money isn't really an issue, so it might just be the generic 2 13w7's powered by 2 1000/1's, or 2 12" xxx's with a decent us amp. i think ported would give me that power i want, but i hope i won't sacrifice too much sq.

I kno Glasswolf can comment on the xxx's he has a pair. So if your wanting to head that direction ask him some Q's on the xxx's

And Glasswolf I just re-read what you pu, and I now know what you ment. Sorry about that

its ok. it was easily mistaken.
anyway, hey Geo, mind if I nip and tuck your commentary on the SPL vs boom car posts and submit it to the FAQ sectionn? That could be a handy reference link for folks.
