need a system for listening to techno

hey i have 95 formula and i pretty much want to make a system that would maximize my techno listening experience. right now i basically have a stock system although i do have a pair of kick 6.5 free airs, and a 12"he2. i was thinken about just getting another he2 and one of those boxes from subthump, and then using another amp for my 2 6.5. the only problem i see with that is i think the 12s are going to get sloppy and ofcoures i would preffer that not be the case. As far as mids and highs im just going to get some good components and im thinken of custom installing a set of tweets towards the top of the a pillars but what do u guys think.

For techno you wan massive bass and in order for massive bass you need a massive stereo system! Your setup sounds alright but it won't be that great for techno, I think. My neighbor likes the techno and it sounds sweet on his system (2 12s in a sealed box, w/ 1800 watt amp and 2 Farad cap)

yeah im sortof tying to slowly piece toghether a system so ive been looking around and hears my new thuoght as far as the bass goes. i thinken of buying the stealth pass side box from sub thump and useing 1 12" brahma for now with a sony xplod 1200W amp for now till i decide to invest the big dough on a real amp, or possible just getting 1 10brahma for now till i can get a better amp then get a second 10" brahma in the driver side.

Xplod amps aren't that bad, I have a 1000w and it pounds the hell out of my subs and never quits!! I think they are great amps and pump out the power w/out any sweat. Another plus is that the 1000w and 1200w models are both 1 ohm stable.
If you wanted to you could hook up four 4 ohm subs to that monster and it won't run away scared!

yeah i know it works and all but the quality isnt neccesarily what i want but im sure it will get me by. Now though as for a system some guy told me that i should remove the pass air bag and put a 10 there which im thinken a brahma and he said for techno that would give me some real crisp ounding bass and then when i get more dough i would add 2 more 10s to the back.

That's a good idea. Get a single brahma 10 for now and then add a second one later. Either in a sealed box or a stealth on the other side. JMO

I think that would rattle just about everything on the dash, plus you're taking an airbag out of your car. Also if you have subs that pound you have no idea where they are coming from, cause everything is vibrating!
My opinion BAD IDEA
