Hello. I'm new to this forum and i want to ask some questions :

I have an JBL GTO 1201.1 amplifier (1200W@2ohms) and two JBL Power P1222 subwoofers (dual 2ohms, 400W RMS) fow now. I made a box (1" MDF, ~4cf@35Hz, slot ported). The box will sit in the trunk of a sedan ('06 Hyundai Accent). The setup is for daily driving not for competitions.

Will be enough 1 run of 1/0 AWG wire? What numbers should i get from this?

I still want to buy an Pioneer P880PRS (P88RS here in Europe), a pair of Focal K2 Power 165KF components for the front and an JBL GTO 75.4 to power them. What do you think about this setup?

Sorry for my bad english. Regards.

Hm, you are in Europe, so my guess would be a 165dB. . .

It's something different about scores in Europe? What do you think about my setup?

Thanks a lot for the replies. What do you think about Focal K2Power 165KF components powered by JBL GTO 75.4? It is ok?

Now ... with the wiring: I want to do the big3 with 1/0 AWG Stinger cable and i think that i shuld do a run of 1/0AWG to the back, to a distribution block with 2 4AWG out. For ground should i do the same : 1/0AWG to distribution block to 4AWG ? Or should i use 4AWG without distribution block?

I had a set of the Focal 165KF. I really liked them. The JBL 75.4 should be enough power. How do you like them? The only thing I really like better now that I am running a hybrid utopia K2p set is the TN 51 tweeter.

GotExcursion:

The worst thing you can do here is ask "WHAT DO YOU THINK I WILL GET questions" There are way too many factors to factor in to your answer, and most of the time you'll get replies that are useless or sometimes rude. " I learned the hard way" Your best bet since your in Europe, where they are doing very High scores in small cars!! is to find a store that supports the sport and find out if they have a TL meter and test your car. As for your equipment, I can't give any advice on it, all I can say is that is sounds nice. Your in a great place to get your car checked. DO IT! you may be suprised! [Big Grin]
