Standard car stereo and speakers (2007 Honda Civic Type S) and still louder and better quality than 90% of the 3rd party ICE systems the cars have in my town.

gotta bmw myself, i have 2 audiobahn flame q's 2200 watts each but going to alpine type r next.

Give a PM to Poopingman he installs them.

I'll just answer it here.

 

 

 

 

 

The issue is that amp is drastically more powerful than a typical setup that would utilize Type Rs. However, if you already have the amp, it can be done. Get the dual 4 ohm Type Rs. Wire one up to each channel @ 2 ohms so they receive 800RMS a piece (50 above their rating of 750, giving you some headroom to adjust gains and volume). And there you go, you should be louder than most, if not all typical street-bumper Best Buy systems.

aight thx for the info. And yeah i already have the amp, i blew 1 of my 2 audiobahn flame q's 2200 wattage a piece so 1100 rms each.

Audiobahn subs are grossly overrated. Those can realistically handle around 700rms a piece.

i had them both running 1 ohm 2200 watts each for over a month with no problem.

They were really suffering, it was just a matter of time.
