mrdavebasshead75 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hello all!! Quick question, Im thinking about running 2-American Bass XFL 12's running off of an American Bass HD3500 at 1-ohm. Kind of stumped on what i need for mids and highs to keep up! I have a 2005 Chrysler 300c with the "premium" Boston factory setup along with a Pioneer DEH-X9600bhs. I was thinking one component set in the front with an amp and leave the factory in play along or would that just be stupid? Don't have any fiberglassing skills so that's out as far as something custom! Really appreciate the help! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/141026-2001-bravada-build-2-15supdated/?fromsearch=1 ----old build!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194247-2005-chrysler-300c-buildslowwwww-lol/ -----new build!!

MrSkippyJ Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 a pair of components should keep up fine with that. I would leave the rear disconnected though unless you buy a second set of components and amp them. It's usually hard to get speakers running on headunit power to sound good with all other speakers being amped.

TRON Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 You don't need 10 speakers in custom fab doors to improve your front stage. One good quality component set, that can handle 100w or so, with a proper amplifier should do the trick.

I had 4-pwx6's in my Bravada but had actual pods for those so placement in my new ride is driving me up the wall lol http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/141026-2001-bravada-build-2-15supdated/?fromsearch=1 ----old build!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194247-2005-chrysler-300c-buildslowwwww-lol/ -----new build!!

I got a pair of Pioneer TS-T15 tweets laying around, could I incorporate those or just unplug the factory Boston and just run a nice Comp alone? http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/141026-2001-bravada-build-2-15supdated/?fromsearch=1 ----old build!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194247-2005-chrysler-300c-buildslowwwww-lol/ -----new build!!

MrSkippyJ Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 keep it simple, get a nice set a components and a good 2 channel amp. Or 2 sets and a 4 channel if you want rears.

mrdavebasshead75 Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Defitnitely not looking for a door screamer! Lol! The bass is very good, box is 5 cubes @32hz but have to turn things down just to hear some strings! Just want a nice and clean front stage without breaking the bank or doing custom work! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/141026-2001-bravada-build-2-15supdated/?fromsearch=1 ----old build!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194247-2005-chrysler-300c-buildslowwwww-lol/ -----new build!!
