Size:  147.6 KB 2 elemental designs 9kv.3's D2's powered but a alpine mrp-350. and 99ranger you need to upgrade your power wire too minimum 4 gauge. 8 is too small if you say you have a grand into your stereo and your still not done. **** i have $1000 to go just for my hu and front stage, not to mention more sound deadoning.

good choice. only thing i suggest with 0 gauge is dont feed it threw a factory grommet, buy a screw in compression grommet and drill a hole.like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/STING...spagenameZWDVW yes you have to drill a big *** hole but it is worth it.

Thanks! Those are some sick subs dude! I might have to look into those. I used to have the Titanium Phoenix Golds and they shook the ground, now I have the Alpine Type R's. They're ok, but those subs you have probably kill'em...lol

I was just looking at them on some other websites and e-bay. I've never seen those before but they look wicked man. The power handling is impressive and I read a lot of good reviews about them. It does'nt matter to me what brand they are with power and specs like that they have to pound. Do you like them and how long have you had them?

I like your style! Kind of like mine, I like the baddest, most intimidating looking sub there is. The looks of those subs just make me feel like they pound. I looooooooooove the huge rubber surround on those. Kind of like my old PG titanium subs but yours are even bigger dude!

Try these bass songs on them: http://www.knocturnalknights.com/roc...te/rfbass2.rar

The password is:rf4lyfe

It is case sensitive. Be careful bro, I don't want you to blow your subs with these tracks......hahahahahahaha!

I have the RF Power Series 551s. I noticed you have RF as well. Here's the info:
http://incolor.inetnebr.com/weisinat.../power551s.htm

I think I have an extra set of screws for these style RF amps. Just let me know where you're at and I'll send them to you. I got them from an RF rep and I think I threw them in my toolbox. I'll take pics of them tomorrow and let you look at them.

I also noticed that you have a ported enclosure. How do you like it in your Ranger?

I've always ran a sealed because of the limited space and it's in the cab. I've heard great things from others but what does it sound like ported in the cab? Thanks.

All right, hold on. Let me go out to the garage and see if I have them. I'll take some pics and be back in a few.

I'd still like to know how a ported box sounds in the cab though please? Have you had both sealed and ported or just ported? Thanks. Be right back.
