The one thing I did not realize, was how importiant positioning of the sub box in the trunk is.

When I first had it, it sounded terrible because I had the trunk open and seats down.
I closed everything up, and it sounded good.
I pushed the sub box all the way in the back of the trunk, because I needed to load stuff in my car after I folded the seats down.
Then when I folded the seats back up and everything, I had hardly any bass.

So I pushed them as far forward as I could, and I had a little more bass, but not much.
So I push them a little back, and I have a ton of bass.

I never knew, .
I was worried I was killing my amp or something, because it wasn't as loud.


But anyway.
I was thinking about getting a little better amp.

What about a Profile AP2000?

The crutchfield advisor said this one...

Any suggestions? :s

Yeah, but I'm not sure what to get.
i was pretty set on that profile one, since it says 480watts rms x2 and 2 ohm, but then the crutchfield advisor said it's not enough power?
and the kicker CVRs actually run at 1 or 4 ohm, and not 2 ohm?
So I was like uhm.. huh?

ok i take it they are dual 4 ohm subs. and since you have 2 of them, you have 2 options; run them at 4ohm or 1ohm. so, you gotta find an amp that is safe to 1 ohm. um, again how much were you looking to pay here....

Nope, they're 2 ohm subs.
they're the ones in the first post
2 ohm Kicker CVRs.

I have them running at 2ohm right now, so I don't really understand what she was talking about.

ok so you'll need something that has 800 RMS. are you one of those everything has to match freaks or nah? anyways im sure u want to wire it into 2 ohm and not 8ohms so ull need a mono sub amp i think. cuz most 2 ch amps arent bridgeable to 2ohms....
