So far I got Fosgate t162c all the way around 75w rms
HiFonics Nemesis Series NX880 100 Watt RMS X 4



I got dynamat and dynaxorb, this setup is super loud and clear.
I'm looking for a sub setup, everyone seems to have their own opinion, so here's what I need. I want a four sub setup, 4-10's or 12's, 2 driver's if they hit hard enough. I always wanted a cerwin vega stroker but my box room is very limited. I need big bass, I have owned Infinity Reference subs, sonys xplode, SAS Bazooka, Coustic and Gravity. The bazooka hit the hardest, but the the infinity sounded real big( had 2) . I was recommeded audiobahn subs, Alpine type R, can't afford jl w7's, Looking for the best(I know) hardest hitting low down dirty sub for the camaro. It looks like any camaro box is going to be around 0.6 cu ft air per driver.

Old school PG Titanium or Eclipse Titanium. Eclipse Ti subs are crazy loud. From modern subs nothing sounds better to me then JL W6v2.

^^^ BIG negative on this comment. My 3 10" L7's are in a 6.5 cu. ft box and they still need a bit more. for .6 cu. ft per sub. get some Kicker Comp 12's. Inside your hatch, there gonna be loud. Little bro's got a 10" Power Refereance from Memphis on a 400 watt rockford fosgate amp and rattles pictures off the wall when hes in the driveway. 2 Kicker Comp 12's will give you what your looking for. I promise. :cool:

well, if you read your manual or talked to someone who does that for a living, kicker squares work great in small sealed boxes. Yes you can go huge with them, but they are efficient when placed in small boxes.

Efficient yes, but also a waste of a box and sub. FAAAARRR more efficient in a larger ported box. Talk to Michael Hughes, World Champion using Kicker squares. if you need more info. visit www.termpro.com <------ thats where all the world champions and dB Draggers hang out. VERY, VERY informative. :)

yea..a square shaped sub will want more air than a round one of similar diameter/length..

Klypto - what's with your setup? such a nice box, subs, amp.........and messy looking install..???

i run the kickr cvx 12s at 1 ohm on a 1900 watt planet audio mono block and i am vary happy with them. but for .6 ft of air space i have to agree the kicker comp vr will do you justice.

my friend has 2 L7's in a camry, they hit hard but I'm looking for something with more gerth. I searched the board and I'm leaning towards some custom built adire brahma even though i've never heard them, but was able 2 find this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=zvlGx7iM7OE) I might end up just getting some Fosgate T1's maybe 2-10's. My coustic's sounded good in a ported box, but this CAMARO box does them no justice

Take a look at some woofers by Image Dynamics, Treo, DIamond, and Zapco. All have woofers that have great SQ and work well in small boxs.

I second that...... JL is the way to go. I have a JL Audio Stealth Sub Box for sale if you are still looking. This thing hits hard and sounds great.

Good luck either way.
