People thought it would sound bad. Well, news flash, it doesn't! I know, quantity doesn't necessarily make quality but it sounds damn good if u ask me. This [censored] bumbs, hard. If I listen to it full blast for like 10 min, I'll get a headache, I'm addicted to bass. I have my 15's facing the back, and my 12's facing forward with the seats folded down. The only problems is, with the 15" box being almost as tall as the trunk, I don't feel it lets enough of the sound into the cabin like it should. But it sounds nice to me, thats all the matter, oh yea...and that I make people's heads turn!




how are u powering ur system, do u have an extra battery or do u have some capacitors

Not really. Technically, you need 0 farads for any power level.

We have fairly strong electrical systems and the VERY limited energy a cap can store helps very little. Adding a cap will certainly not add any audible improvements.

Beats every one.




Are you trying to say its better than everyones or that for the price its better than everyones?

Becuase if your claiming either find what i have then subtract 10 dollars from what yours cost and thats how much mine was. Soo either way your last comment isn't true. Plus there are two Iasca Champs in this forum and i dno't think a Dual amp is gonna hang with that.

What happened to the Eclipse 2101?




I still have it boxed up somewhere... I installed everything else and decided that it was unnecessary (it would probably help a little, but I have no idea how to set it correctly anyway and my current systems sounds incredible as-is). I have never used it once. To be honest, I totally forgot that I had it... , I should probably sell it...

Well maybe my one amp is more powerful than other amps because with my 800watts, my lights dim(if i spelled it right)every time my bass hits and i know if i was to add another amp without 2 caps the whole thing would probably cut off. I've asked people at audio shops just incase anyone was thinking i'm coming up with this. EX. i went to an auto show and these people at the shop had their van out there that had countless amount of speakers and the guy said they don't really have enough batteries to power the system.(meaning it will cut off if they turn it up)

I think that depends on the amp thats pumping out the 1800watts. A cheaper amp won't hit as hard as an more expensive amp, not to say mines is more powerful than anybody else's, but my altenator wouldn't be able to run any more
