Default My new system is in
Got my new stereo installed in my car Monday afternoon.
Headunit is an Eclipse CD3000 that is Sirius ready with an I-POD plug-in cord. Did a Subthump side enclosure with a JL Audio 10w1v2. This powered by a SoundStorm 900 watt 2 channel amp being bridged. I'll get pictures up by end of the weekend cause rigght now the weather sucks horribly here.

You have all 900 of those watts on that 10w1? That is not the kind of smoke show you want in an f-body

It's a SoundSTORM, not a SoundSTREAM amp, so it probably couldn't blow the JL anyway

You can blow a speaker with a nasty clipped signal easier than too much clean power

Nah, while I agree that SoundStorm sucks, I'd rather put my money into a good sub than a good amp if my budget was limited.
