HILARIOUS... double double double = gobble gobble gobble.

I know Im showing up to this thread a day short and a dollar late, but I always think its better to buy more power. IMHO, amps should be ran somewhere between 25 - 75% of the Gain's ability.

Lets say you by an amp that runs the 100x4 @ 75/80% of the amp's ability. It may work great/perfect/fantastical now, but in the future you might wanna change things around. Get something different. Sell to your brother. Install 6 - 15s in your wife's Passat. Anything. The amp you are using to max out some door speakers could be inadequate for a future set up. Thus limiting your ability to build another system in the future.

With this said, please keep in mind that common sense should take precedence over this comment. Meaning, if financially it doesnt make sence, physical constraints, or itll be a porno's chance in heaven that you sell your truck and/or piece out the system.

Dont take too much of this reply to heart...
I just like to hear myself type

When I originally typed that post, I was referencing decibel change which isn't linear, when I changed it back to "times as loud" for simplicity before posting it did get a little wordy.

Just make it happen and dont spend another minute thinking about regrets...

Remember in college when you went home with that hot sorority girl from Alpha Kappa Loves the PeePee. You knew she slept with the entire soccer team, even the ringers from Central America, but you did it anyway. Guess what...you're okay today! Everything's still swingin (so to speak).

And you're not sitting here today pondering if she gave dome piece as well as Rodrigo said she did because you know she does. You spray painted the back of her throat like your dad was Sherwin Williams. Pull the trigger. Buy the set up you love right now, and you won't be wishin you woulda done something different tomorrow.
