Old mic or not..call it 155+ or -db through a term labs mic?!! That's still insane for a basic box in a trunk which is what he has basically. It's not some custom ported fiberglass enclosure with 15in RE XXX's or Rockford competition series subs only good for a big subsonic burp. This guy can actually play music at 150+db and get good SQ from his system. That's a cool combination.

No doubt, I can tell you all about it. It's subthump.com box.
Except I'm pushing 8+v preouts (phoenix gold line driver says 10v now) and a pair of yellow top batteries with a 275amp alternator. The new alternator pushes 14.7v. I could drain both battieres in 20 seconds before using the factory 102a. There's simple not enough power from the factory. We're expecting 155+ on the term labs and no doubt 165 using the old mics. There's a big difference for sure. I'm glad they are using presure sensative devices now. My term labs stuff should be here soon. 
I had to buy the hptuners software first. 
I run 3 sets of kicker ss components for my SQ. The car has full dynomat. The car is really musical and extremely loud. Yes, it's a great combination.

Hi Warlock!! That is an impressive set up. Don't blame you for the hp tuners software...I'm actually in need of a tune very soon. Gotta come up with some more cheez. You should acheive those numbers easy with that much voltage!! Hey WeaponZ, how did you like the Directed amps?! I've heard great things about them but never heard one personally. I might go that route as they make a 5 channel I was curious about. Thanks for the info guys.

I know I need a class D amp, but wanted some opinions on a sub and amp that would go together and sound decent.

So if you have a f-body its gonna be loud. On Amps I say MTX all the way, but also check out some of Rockford Fosgates!
