Silverado help-Audio

[MexicanRice]

I have a 99 Silverado(new body style) and was wanting to upgrade the sounds...im on a budget and i just got 2 subs-500 watts, 4 ohms, and i want to hook them up...What kind of amp should I get?? also, does anybody know where I can get a sub box for 2 12's under the extended cab rear seat?? Thanks in advance for the help...

well...looking at ebay, they have alot of amps for really cheap...expecially the return buy stuff....most of the amps that are return buys work, but read the auction for the stats. they sell these return buys for anywhere from $.75 to $50, and that is for a really good amp (ok, semi good). i would buy some of these return buys, but i aint got a bank card, or credit card...lol. so look into those, also, go to www.crutchfield.com, i think they have custom boxes for your silverado...

thanks, cuz when i tried crutchfield for the box, i could only find fo 8" and 10", and i was wondering if anybody has seen a 12"...I'm going to try the return buy though...whatkind of amp would be good for these subs though??

now all i need is the amp

nice.....i see alot of the Bazooka amps as a return buy, you can buy like 3-4 of those (700watts a piece) for about $100. like i said, i havnt tried them; but im sure they will work for your setup; but i would if i had a cc.

that amp will kick the snot out of ur subs! that is a real good amp and if u got it , gain should be set at half volume. what brand are the subs? maybe they could handle it?

Yeah, exactly...500 watts at 2 ohms...exactly. if you ran two 4 ohm subs in parallel, you would get the max power out of the amp which is what i said before....500 watts at 2 ohms. MORE than enough to power any sub...that is a great deal at only $80. id snag that up in a sec if i could...lol.

What I meant, are they dual voice coil? Do they have two positive and two negative terminals on each sub?
