If I was going to make a system with something of that magnitude it would be more along the lines of

Parthenon powered by a Arc Audio 4000SE

...yeah, I'd probably get arrested using one of those, though.

I'm not disagreeing with you guys, but why is it a waste? I realize that its insane power, but I'm missing something here.

Simply because its a bragging rights type of sub. Basically coming down to..."Mines bigger than yours" In real life we all know bigger doesnt always mean better.

Not for you with two lil'uns crawling/runnin around soon. That thing could hurt someone let alone the damage it'd do to the babies.

Ready for me to move back and bug the **** out of you at you're shop?

Yea lol. Reminds me when I finally find a job out there that pays good and I get out of debt a bit, and save up a good $500 or so I want the best 4 channel amp to power my front stage and bridge to run my sub, AND sound deadening, and get rid of my noise problem. I'm gonna let you pick everything..... well except the amp probably but I will definately listen to you're suggestions highly, I want something I can install tune and forget about. Gonna take care of me? OOh and my cd player come back yet?

O no, your picking the amp again? What is it that I get to pick? If you want the best, youll need alot more than 500 bones.

Came back awhile ago, but I also thought you were coming here sooner and just picking it up....

I am gonna pick it up when I get back, probably just going to sell it since I got another one. Well give me a price range that I should look at saving up to. I'm not particular on that. I want something that will give me enough power to do everything I want. You can pick the amp, as long as it's not too excessively pricey, and of course the sound deadening, this time we do the entire door .

Hmm a few Genesis amps come to mind. O wait you said not to high in price. We can always do Arc or DLS. Something to power everything? Prolly the new Arc FD 6 channel or the DLS A7.

Yah man the damn wiring for that radio is usless with other radios except for the 950 960 etc which were too expensive for me. I got an 860 and will sell one of them after I get back. So what price range am I looking at with the arc fd6? I'm thinking I can use it to power front mids, front tweets, and two bridged channels for the sub does that sound good? Also could it be used in an "active" setup?. Does that sound accurate as to being something I could use that amp for? Pm me the price.

I also still have that sound problem. It went away after I did a little rewiring on the power wire and ground, but it's back in full force now.

I changed my amp and the noise was still there so I stayed with this amp and sold the other. But I'm sure we'll get this figured out. I'm guessing in the $600 - 700 range. :
