You know, back when I was making $130 a week in high school and didnt have the money to splurge on nice car audio, let alone replace them if something went wrong, lol. Those RE's look good. I've thought about a good 15 or even getting my first 18 from them or FI. I'm really leaning towards a 18, only size sub I've never had. Something diffrent.

I play the volume soft for a couple minutes and then ease the volume up slowly. I used to cover them with a cheap throw blanket to keep the frost off them while parked, and then remove the blanket when I went to drive You know, back when I was making $130 a week in high school and didnt have the money to splurge on nice car audio, let alone replace them if something went wrong, lol.

I agree with loud is not better....
I have passed that phase, and can honestly say that my home stereo setup has evolved to be an example of that...
I had an older 70's technic receiver running at 8ohms...(ohmmmm...lol) and pushing something like 13 jerry rigged speakers and a sub box from my car.... it would rattle the walls.... and then evolved into my current Logitechs, which are loud as bawls when turned up, but I swear on my blazer, I have never turned them up past 70%.....
And while we are on the topic, I actually was talking to this with my boss, and his words were, "Oh, thats just a pissing contest" which made me giggle like a girl... because think about it, you can be the loudest **** on the planet and it wont get you much...
Now before I get flamed and (you suck!!!) thrown at me, I understand that its what YOU want and that people are entitled to different opinions, but I agree with mr allcustom... although I would almost wanna add that speaker location can also change the tune quite a bit.... I hate hearing the music behind me in a car.... also, I like the tight subs that hit and you feel them all around, not booming in the truck....
Idk... I just ranted randomly....
I want my system to play this well....

kiddin man.I love winter more than anyone, but I'm looking foreward to spring cause I've got jobs and people with car audio and $$$ for me. Trailblazer needs wired up, buddy needs doors and pillars installed, I need to run my 1/0 and get some new sub(s). (Moms wanting my Kove armageddon 15 I'm running now, lol). Old manager want's a sat. radio unit installed, little bit of everything.
