    Both the ones I listed will get loud and sound good with less wattage. The Magnum can handle more than 1000+ watts, but doesn`t need it.



    With the eD A, you could run two off 1000+ watts if needed, and it would still be incredibly loud.



    I have an Avionixx AXT 800.2 going to my e12a. It`s about 900 watts to it.



    So both can handle that much but don`t need it.

    Aurora, You might just pull me from the JL 12W6v2. I just read those and they sound sweet. I hope there is a place I can check them out locally.

    If you only have $1k to work with, you pretty much have to go for some value equipment. If you are truly holding it to under this amount I would recommend the Avionixx 600.4 amp (110W x 4 for $280), the Elemental Designs E10K sub ($125) which is a great sounding sub that does not require a ton of power, and then go the .theZeb.com and get the CDT Audio CL-61a components for $150. This amp will do a great job of running all of this and this would only cost you around $600 with shipping. I would spend the rest on a good quality installation and soundproofing your car.



    My biggest recommendation is to get a professional to do the installation. It really makes a huge difference.



    System in my 2003 Accord LX Coupe:



    Eclipse 8443 H/U

    Avionixx 600.4 amp

    CDT Audio Eurosport ES-620 components

    Elemental Designs E10K sub w/box by Mr. Marv



    I got a 3 yr warranty on everything except the Euro`s which come with a 5 year warranty. All of this including installation by a guy with more than 19 years experience was right at $1,900 and I would not change a single thing if I had it to do over again.

    Unfortunately its not that easy to find a professional. Of all the shops i`ve visited, all i`ve seen are people that make an install look nice. Simply carpenters and people who are good with fiberglass and bondo.
    B&W Speakers, Transparent cables, Classe amps coming soon

    Doubt you`ll find anywhere locally to listen to either of those subs...yet.



    If it were my choice I`d get the Magnum D2, put it in a smaller (i.e. 1.5^3) sealed box and give it between 500-1000 watts...it will be louder than you`ll ever want it to be, but sound very, very clean...can hit any beat you want it to without missing anything....just an awesome sub, and it will save you some money.
