I have some very good news. My Gmom is coming back from AZ, and she is helpingme take out a loan, and I'm selling my truck I have now, and I'm buying her 2000 ford ranger off her. EX cab btw :fing02:

What I'm thinking right now. When it warms up here. It just snowed like a foot. Anyway this is what I have.

HU: JVC AR7000
Speakers: Arc Audio kar coax's.
Amp:Arc Audio kar 400.4
Subwoofer: JL 13W7


Now I got the Arc amp from my sis, bcuz she doesn't want her beats any more. I was gonna sell my RE subs, and kicker amp. I already have everything else. I just need to look for an amp. Because we all know that w7's come in homosexual coil configurations so I will need to look into an amp that does 800-1000 rms at 4 ohm. The JL is a dual 1.5 so 3ohm or .5ohm are my only options.

I was thinking about getting anther pair of arc audio coax’s, so I can use the amp to it's full potential I would really like to go with a E audio pro, but they only come in 12's, and I would rather have a 15. I want to go ported with the box. Guessing around 3-4 cuft tuned to about 32 should get nice and loud. What are your guys suggestions? I'm not for sure if I really wanna go with the w7, I'd rather go with something more unknown. So let me know what you think

Get a JL 1000/1.... expensive but it won't have any problems with the w7's ohm load.

i really wanna get a 1000/1 and a 300/4. their just so flexible if you ever get a different sub or components. but like my other thread was sayin, the new cadence zrs-9 looks pretty good too

ya id like to see you get something more user friendly like the arc sub or a elevation audio pro or maybe something along the lines from DLS soundsplinter or some other brand. then you could get comps for the front.

I would really like to go with there flat line model, but they only come in 12's.
I want to reverse mount the sub, so the Arc series is kinda outta the look category.
The looks of the Eaudio pro, I love, what would you think about doing two of em. Do they like ported boxes? Devin do you know the mounting depth of the pros?

Also Devin, have you heard any of the DLS subs?

off hand i would say like 6"s they arnt too deep. the executions are like 14 or so. and a W7 is a pita to reverse mount.
