You might consider spreading that 15K thin.... thats a BIG car.

Post pics too...... stop readin this, get to work. Hey, can you get yourself a coffin? use it as an amp rack, or sub enclosure. posted_image

Or maybe screens inside the coffin... Keep that little slider thing at least.

I mean - MA Audio is a pretty low end brand - I'm sure with unlimited money something incredible is possible - but I'm not really sure if very many people on this forum at least know much about thier products either.

What are the goals the for install exactly? Just a showpiece?

yeah its just a show piece for the store we have a sony car a pioneer car a cerwin vega car a jl car and the other guy beat me to dibs on the re car this week. so now our other major line is ma. it doesnt have to be anything incredible but i would like to shoot for high 140's i was thinking mabey in the realm of 4 hk 15x4's in an air cannon (spl guys know what im talking about) on one of there hk10ka power amps. subs peak at 3000 each and since they dont list it im assuming somewhere along the lines of actual 1200 the power amp pushes 6000 rms at 1 ohm 14.4vdc and 8000 rms at 1 ohm at 17 vdc its a monster amp kinna scared of it as it does retail for 6500 but since there the ones buying it ill try

I liked my MA Audio HK150XC...pretty tough sub. Sounded decent too but got pretty loud.

The Hard Kore subs aren't that bad.
