Thanks everyone and you are right Mercedes. They are Orion HCCA 10D subs. Running off HCCA 275 G4 amp and HCCA 250 G4 amp.

Orion HCCA's are the best. I have 1 15 in the back of a CRX and it pounds. I bet those 2 10's hit very hard. Setup looks nice. Good Job

Damn, that reminds me of that scene in "Singles" where Matt Dillon shows off his girlfriend's new stereo in her Scirroco.
I've got one 8" JL in my crx, and that's enough. Can't imagine a 15. Do you have any room in the hatch with that in there?

Its because I push a lot of watts. I tried to go Bridged Mono and it drains too much. The caps say 11.3 which is really bad and is destroying my alternator so I have it in stereo. Basically to run it hard I need a upgraded alternator, another battery, and a few more caps.

Actually it takes up the whole hatch. The box had to be 4.0 cu.ft. The amp is bridged mono 1200 watts x 1. It hits very hard. I am pretty sure it is around the 140-150 db range.

BrabusCClass, with that sub setup, does the bass sounded good?? I'm thinking of installing a sounds system too and i don't need the space. How much does the installation cost you?? Yours is very unique and fresh

I had that problem with my last system. 3 10w6's pushed by a Mmats D100HC. Unfortunately streetwires had just been bought out by Monster at that time so I got nervous since I had been planning on buying one of their alternators. I searched around and there was a shop in tampa that takes ACdelco high output alternators and customize them for the vehicle.... not expensive either.... it ran me a little over 500 bucks for isolator, regulator, and alternator installed . Didn't need the powerstation afterwards... the two streetwires 1 farad caps did the job. It actually ended up being cheaper than if i had gone the other route.... just an FYI. If it wasn't for someone else telling me to call around, I would have ended up spending 1300 dollars....... call around and see how much someone charges for that in your area
p.s. nice system..... nice install..... nice car what is the rest of your setup?

Those rear firing subs look like something off of a rocket. ( I was going to say space shuttle.) Very cool, I hope it sounds as good as it looks.

Good info. Thanks. Im just gonna leave it at the stereo mode which is good enough for me. But maybe one day if I want to go more SPL I will go your route.

p.s. are you asking what Ive done to my car? Or just my system?
