Haha that sounds familiar about people saying "man you got four 15's in that thing?" lol.

DD makes great audio equipment and so does Sundown audio. I had another system with a Sundown sae 1200d on a RE SX 12 before that, which got pretty loud believe it or not as well for just one 12.

I didn't know you ran DD either that is awesome, glad I posted as I kinda don't post about audio stuff as much as I used to.

Orion makes good amps btw, I always loved their older amps. I bet your system gets down though, and yes it does get expensive when you start getting into more power.

I usually try to keep to myself when it comes to audio questions...get frustrated way too quickly with all of the opinions flying around. People are too loyal to their mainstream brands. I get caught up in these performance threads, but I'm really an audio guy. Probably should post more, and I wish I had some pictures of my old setup. Then again, I barely have pictures of my trucks, which is but around my house, we don't even take pictures at Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.

Thanks guys for the feedback. Ck out my posts (#25 & #26) in the thread below. I would appreciate any feedback/opinions you have. My setup may just need more power to it or maybe a custom box with one high end 12" sub....I don't know, but I'm not happy with where it is. Thanks.

Pics of the inside of the truck. (the one with the mondo 15 in it) I called rockford. they said sealed 1.4 cubic foot box.
Height? = 15
Width? = 56
Depth1? = 3.4
Depth2? = 6.2

So make that box behind the seat with the magnet facing out. I am just pissed because i thought buying a 2 ohm sub I can run it on my amp at 2 ohms. But no..... I have to run it at 4 or 1. Stupid DVC. Anyhow I may look into a 1 ohm amp since my kicker is 2 and 4

The ZX1500 to do max power, get one dual 4 ohm woofer and run amp at 2 ohm...two subs, get two dual 2's.
