Also sound deadening is a must for great sound.......my tC system was clean and loud inside,not painful loud but close.....the sounddeadening made the biggest differance,took about 150sq feet,but could of done more,I also used about half a gallon of liquid paint on deadening under the sheets and that was cheaper and helps a lot.

im getting sone street wires zn for free, figured on some Wally world scoshe wire and dash kit for now. i hate having to do it on a budget, have a slight case of ocd when it comes to building stuff due to working in maintenance for a while. except my hot glue shift **** adapter, lol. wires will be run clean and hidden, all that jazz. prolly going to wind up with a cheapy head unit since i cant find a decent used one. found an 700 watt polk from frys for about 50. with any luck it will all be in by next weekend unless i get my bike back on the road. im a sucker for 2 wheels.

just saying
My 2 12" Type-R's in a sealed box sound amazing on rap as well as rock. They hit the double bass lines like ____ing champs. So x2 on that one.

Bass test tracks. Want some good bass? Check out these artists:

DJ billy E (famously known for beats 4 my van)
Bass mekanik

I'm running 1000w on a sub that starves for 1500w (for sure going for 1500w this summer). you know you have enough bass when your visors, sunroof and mirrors are barely holding in place.

.....Sorry but I don't shop at walmart....

JL Audio ftw!!! Just bought an Alpine Type R

My 10w0v2 can blow all cheap brands out of the water.

I'm kind of curious to see what you're running.

got my subs in, they sound sweeeeeet. running at half volume my vision blurrs on the deep hits. a buddy hooked me up with a lighning audio amp. couldn't afford a new h/u so i grabbed a line out converter. picked up one at fry's that has its own gain controls, bunch of other features too. no complaints about it yet. thanks for all the help all.
