Pre-fab boxes are usually crap.
We're not "hating" on Audiobahn. We just think there are better performing subs for the same amount of money. We're trying to give you a better VALUE for your money.
So, you say the Audiobahns "bang" or whatever. The subs we are suggesting will probably "bang" harder, last longer, sound better, and be under warranty. Can't you understand that we're not "hating," we're just recommending what we think are better solutions.
I still think you should buy the system I recommended on your original thread. It was superior in every way to the system you've selected and cost less.

You have a 95 civic? Alright. Let me be clear about this. Your 95 civic doesn't have the electrical system for that amplifier. To handle that amplifier without causing problems you'd need to upgrade your alternator and your wiring. This is expensive.
This is one of the reasons I suggested the lower powered Blaupunkt in your original thread.
Those more efficient JBL subs and the blaupunkt amplifier will be just as loud as that Audiobahn setup, be more appropriate for your electrical system, cheaper, and under warranty.
Let me repeat this so you get it. :-)
The other system I recommended would be:
1) JUST AS LOUD
2) BETTER FOR YOUR CAR
3) CHEAPER
4) UNDER WARRANTY
5) SOUND BETTER
6) LAST LONGER
7) PLAY DEEPER - hey, more vibrations!

....you'll change.....we all do eventually.  Time and experience wins out over hearing advice, but if you truly didn't WANT to hear the opinions of others you wouldn't have asked in the first place.

Yeah your really going to have a problem no matter what amp you get unless you find yourself a nice high output alternator for your car.  Once the power supply issue is out of the way , then you can look into bigger amps to match the amount of power you have available to you from your alternator.  Going with 3 subs is going to present you with a wireing problem, the only way you can wire all 3 is to 2.66 ohm, or 6 ohm, neither of those impedances are really close to "industry standard" amp output rateings.  If you stuck with 2 of those sub you hve now, and wired them to 1 ohm then you get your hands on a nice 1 ohm stable mono amp to beat the snot out of your car with.

I guarantee you that if you only put the 2 subs in, get a nice respected amp, and put the subs in a box specially calibrated/designed for those subs, you will indefinately have a louder system then your buddy.
