Audio Bahn 10's
Can anyone tell me how they think two Audio Bahn 10's in a dual sealed box will sound in my ranger? im pushin with a 1000w american legacy 2champ running 4ohms(required) the subs are dual voice coil wired series to maintain 4 ohms. any suggestions?
as a last resort i was thinking of changing to alpine type-E's and an mtx thunder amp. i dont want to do this if the audios will sound good.
i currently have the bahns in a dual bandpass with the legacy amp. it is loud but im missin some low lows and i want to change the box, cause its rubbin the back of my seats and already worn a couple of holes through the fabric of the seat....

audiobahn are good subs but get a different amp. american legacy is bottom line quality and the 1000w puts out maybe 600 at best. maybe a JBL BP1200.1 ($250 off ebay) try. other than that sounds good. not sure on the wiring off hand but ill try to get back bout that.

def. get a better amp. the amp is probably throwing out 250 watts or less continuously and 600 watts peak. you will be surprised how cleaner and consistent a better amp will sound. all that amp is doing is throwing out crap. i suggest looking for a memphis audio amp. although the name isn't that big YET the products are AWESOME and arent too pricy. there are alot of amps on ebay but if you do have the money try to buy a new one at an audio store or a certified internet retailer. the warranty is a must. high power amps are prone to burning up an it's nice to beable to walk into the store and exchange it than having to send it off to get it fixed which can cost up to half what the amp cost you in the first place. american legacy, pyramid, and all that crap is just a waste of money. you get what you pay for.

i changed my box from the dual bandpass to the dual sealed. with the legacy amp i noticed more distortion that must have been covered by the bandpass. i got an mtx 6500 thunder d class and it is pushing around 600 each. the legacy sas not a d class amp. it was mosfet power supply. the mtx sounds so much better. it wont distort at all. my lights dim like hell now, even with the 1 farad cap. i need to throw in a batt and an alternator to finish it this summer. thanks guys.
