  • System Build - Need opinions/advice

    So I've been looking around and researching for some time on what I want for a system upgrade in my G6 and I've come up with this. There are a few blanks or unsure ideas which is why I want you guys to take a look and give me opinions. Good/Bad, what I should or shouldn't get from my list of items. I have decided for now to keep the stock in-house speakers with the possiblity of upgrading them later.



    Sub: 2 Memphis 12" C3 Cast Subs, http://www.memphiscaraudio.com/products ... ubwoofers/

    Amp: I figure from my subs a 2OHM class D amp with 1200w RMS 2400w Peak (not sure what I want though)

    Box: ZEnclosures 05+ Pontiac G6 SUB BOX Subwoofer Enclosure, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... K:MEWAX:IT

    Farad Capacitor: Rockford Fosgate RFC1 (maybe), http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_135 ... +RFC1.html

    Wiring Kit: Monster Cable MPC P400 BAP1500 (maybe), http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_183 ... P1500.html


    Thanks for any input or critism from my build

    thats too much money for an install kit. get a 4 gauge install kit from here http://www.millionbuy.com. also get your amp from here.
    stick wiht hifonics, kenwood, kicker, alpine or jl audio for amps.
    memphis subs i am not familiar with.
    also, whats with not upgrading your mids and highs? just bass?
    you need to upgrade those as well

      Knukonceptz has the best wiring kits for the money, hands down.

      As for the subs, Those are a lot of money for the sub itself. For that price we can find you something better. Are you looking to making a lot of noise or just for sound quality? After we find some subs, we'll find an amp.

      Also if you're looking to be loud, your going to want a different box as well. Those boxes are sealed, Ported boxes are always louder.

        I am looking for sound quality. Loudness is always a plus but I want the best sound quality which is why I chose what I felt was a good quality 12" sub that would have more power than what I'd need with a sealed box.

        I do listen to hip hop/rap music mostly but I'm not trying to produce 'gangsta bass' with a ported box. The box was a choice of it fitting well in the G6 and saving space. The mounting depth cleared so I figured...why not?

          If you're going for sound quality then that box is fine for a 12" sub for the most part.

          And for what you would pay for the memphis subs, I would suggest getting 2 of these Fi Q subs.

            well if I get a sub like that I think that one might be suitable at 1000W RMS. That was round-about what I was looking for between 2. Maybe I should just go with that and a single 12" sub box with a little more square footage for the sub. Definately will be doing a little more research on that sub this afternoon.
