Default Need Some suggestions please

Hello,

Im wanting to get a stealth setup for my car and have a few questions.

Here is what Ive got planned out so far.

1. EBay stealth box .6cuft should be enough, right?

2. RE SE10 should I go for the D2 or D4model.
I understand that in parallel, the D2 will be 600w @ 1ohm and the D4will be 600W at 2ohms

in regards to the amp, I was looking at either a phoenix gold RSD600 which handles 600w @ 2ohms or the HiFonics Brutus BXi610 which handles 600w @ 1ohm

If you guys have any suggestions on a better amp, I'm open to ideas, as long as it is under 200$

Basically I'm just trying to get a middle of the road setup with a decent amount of volume and SQ.

Thanks for the help guys

Rich

the RSD600 is rated 650rms @2ohm.

IMO get the BXi610 and the 2ohm sub and save ur self some money.

The only thing I dont like about the HIFONICS is the fact that it is Class A/B.

I would like to get a class D, and im not diametrically opposed to the idea of buying an amp second hand.

I have a gently used Directed 1500d and a RE Audio SE10 D4 that I bought brand new. The sub is flawless and the amp has a couple of light scratches. I guaranty they both work perfectly and with that combo would hit VERY hard. The sub still has the box it came in with literature. I am stepping up to a pair of 12" CDT subs and 2500watt Clif Designs amp so I have no use for these. I would be willing to part with sub, amp and I'll even throw in a new 4awg amp install kit all for $250.00 shipped. Let me know as I want to sell them quick.

Yes, they are good. Not the best, but definitely in the upper half. They bought a lot of old well known brands like PPI. They also make our favorite alarms, Viper/Python/Clifford.

I haven't looked up prices on the stuff, but if his price is good compared to going prices for that stuff then definitely buy it from him.
