Same with me. That's the point i'm trying to get to. :)

That's why my new system is one of a kind. It's a H2 12" orion that's hook up on two amps. One amps is puching the subs and the other amp is puching it down. I think Orion is one of the only compagny that does that. I think?

Orion isnt made the same now because its made by shitty DEI... I know all about shitty DEI. my viper amp is made by them. it really is a DEI 2400 except 2 ohm optimized vs 1 ohm
I was gonna get an orion h2. but then i heard one in person... SLOPPY :(
what kind of amp are you gonna run on it?

I had a friend who swore my memphis audio stuff, Everything else sucked. I always heard polk audio sucked balls though :blink:
My friend wants to build a realtivly cheap good system, any suggestions? He got a slightly used kick ass shape pioneer primer deck for 150 last week. Very nice and works great. He wants to add to it so any suggestions is awesome?

If he's looking to buy a system, check out SoundWaves Car Audio on Stone Church Rd. in front of Watson's Fitness. That's my cousin's shop.

Im getting it from my performance shop. H2 12"

orion has dropped in quality since the HCCA days, but the 2500d is still a beast. with some companies, you are to an extent buying the name. but there are others that are totally based on performance.
i love:
alpine HU's, processors, and the type r subs
pioneer in dashes
adire components and subs
resonant engineering amps subs and components
focal components
seas components
morel tweeters
peerless tweeters
treo subs and amps
DD subs to an extent
JL w6v2's and w7s, slash series amplifiers, cleansweep, and their home audio cabinet called "gotham"

Well I still like it. I think they have good product and they didn't disappoint me yet so..i'll still go with them.

DD subs cost way too much though
but if anyone has a line on 2 HCCA 275 G4's let me know

i do, but before i get one of those i'd get a treo SSX or a RE MT.

Are the brahma extremes still being produced?
Just Curious... - DevilDriver - 10-08-2005
scoobasteve,Oct 7 2005, 03:05 PM Wrote:Are the brahma extremes still being produced?not that i know of. when adire re-tooled, moved to a different build house, and redesigned all their drivers, i think they stopped making the brahma extreme.

Damn, that sucks.
Not really a major concern. because i'm more interested in SQ over SPL.
