i build sq cars everyday... lol.. well almost..
the w7 JL Audio line of subwoofers are amounst the best ever.. if not.. THE BEST.. cant go wrong there.. try 1 x 10w7
Amplifer wise.. since boot space is your aim.. id go with the JL Audio 500/5 Amplifer.. that way your whole system is runnng off one amplifer.. Uses much less battery power.. honda's use the smallest baterys ever!!
Anyway.. post sum pics, it all depends on how much boot space you wana give up.. even for your amplifer racks and capacitors and stuff

two 3ohm coils on a pdx amp wouldn't be ideal...unless you planned on running it at 6ohm. they don't sound great running below rated impedance

you could always try jl's new HD750/1 and an HD600/4. Those new JL HD series amps sound fantastic, especially when ran at 4ohm

ok i like the idea of getting a 5 ch that will run everything.
what do you guys think about refurbished amps??
i can get one very cheap but whats the down side?? it comes with a 14 day money back guarantee and a 1 year warranty so if something goes wrong its covered.

well i wasn't looking cheap. i found cheap.
usamps is good stuff with great sq so it my a been worth it.
i think i will just get a pdx 1.600 or 1.1000, depending on the subs. i hear the pdx has decent sq.
i haven't got any other suggestions on subs so im still stuck with w7 and treo. as of now w7s are winning.

The pdx's are good amps. you can use them. regardless of what amp, you want power. SQ does not mean low power. You want power to handle transients. I have right at 4000 watts in my SQ system. Only 1000 on the subs.
Fi Q's are great subs. they have great output, but sound very good also. All in the enclosure you build.

which HD model was $700bucks? THe 600/4 is $899. Anyone selling it for less than that should be in trouble.

oh, yeah that price is right for the HD750/1. i was thinking you meant for the new 4ch. i do love these amps. Sound incredible, and 13%smaller than the pdx amps
