Hello and welcome to the site. I am a audio nut also and used to have 2 RE XXX 12's in my old cadillac. I will give you a bit of advice, I would go with a single XXX or SX 12 in like a 2.5 cu ft box ported to around 32hz. Sounded great in my 98

o ya im preaty good with REs equipment.
tho no way im gonna pay that much for the new XXXs!!!!!!! not worth it to me!
id buy a MT long before then. which is what id love to use BUT this cars geting by little done. i think it should be able to hold 1200watts fine with some ground upgrades....
and after i get a highpower alt and a bigger battery or two then ill try geting a second Orion D2400 and strap em together to power a 12inch RE MT.
tho 10s and 12s are a big downsizing ive been used to for awhile.LOL
used to have 2 SX 15s in my truck.
also a 18inch XXX with a orion 2500D.


heres a picture of my new sub on the... left.... had to think a second.LOL that other one is a used SX 15 i bought and sold cause the cosmetic flaws on it from previous owner


heres my trucks SD page
http://www.sounddomain.com/ride/534297
tho never any good pictures of my box instaled due to its size.





LOVED THAT HUGE SUB! LMFAO

nothing special for that box tho due to its size and i just wanted to get it beaten quickly.lol
also dont ya just love my rear passenger seat i put in for them.......


tho trucks being striped as much as i can or WANT to and will be put up for sale as soon as im done puting back most of it as close to stock as i can! main part i cannt put back is the shaved door handles and paint. everything else is cosmetics.
tho one thing i did learn with this truck tho.... DONT SELL ORIGINAL PARTS! ya never know when youll want to put it back stock and sell. LOL LEASON LEARNED!!!! and keeping everything from my civic no matter how small!
so far my little extras pile



tho cannt put back my mirror stock tho.LOL choped it off!
HONDA SUCK FOR REAR VIEW MIRRORS AND BASS! my old 86crx had the same problem so this time i just used a old AMERICAN DESIGNED rear view mirror.LOL outta my old jimmy when i replaced the windshield so it was extra.
only downfall... i mounted it alittle to high so my visors hit it if i try to fold em down BUT its ok cause my tint brow helps alot to block the sun

AFTER
http://s40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...rordone009.flv

NOTICE... NOW THE MIRROR DOESNT MOVE ANYMORE.LMFAO
it still shakes like mad BUT it stays where i put it!!!!!!!!!!! the original one just kept tilting until it touched the windshield.
downfall was i had to cut out the tint for the windshield.

another downfall is i shoulda got the rear window and sunroof tinted with 5% tint instead of 17% just thought it would be to dark..... i was wrong!




thanks for the complements tho! i hope to turn this into a even nicer civic! just money slowen me down.LOL

BUT if i can sell my truck quickly that will help out my civic realy transform!!!!!!! and pay off my credit cards! then id buy all new OEM exterior parts.
and my double din headunit i want realy bad! all in one unit. id even throw in a new xbox 360..... air strut suspension and some nice NEW rims. other wise im forced to go used if i can...
