when it comes to audio i dont know the first thing.....i wanted to know if 8 Ohms are better than 4 Ohms in a pair of 10 inch subs, and exactly what the hell are Ohms! im trying to have some bass but shake the neighbors windows

 

Ohms are the impedence that a speaker can handle. the higher the ohms the less power and the less chance of blowing a speaker. therefore, 4 ohm is better than 8

 

thnx a lot.....do you kno newhere i can get a good system 4 not a lot of money

 

i dont know where you can get something for really cheap... I work at circuit city so i get 60% off kicker/infinity/eclipse

That's where I buy all of my stuff. If you get an amplifier go all the way and buy JL Audio, you'll really regret a cheap amplifier later (I went thru about 10 cheap ones in a row one time. Went to JL and never had a problem).

 

Sorry to say it man, I agree with Vibe, You get what you pay for, especially with audio. Sometimes you get lucky, (Picked up 2 12" Clif Design for $33/ pc) and they are a division of MA Audio. But for your amps, go with a company that has proven themselves. I used to have an entire Tsunami set up for my speakers, and blew every friggin one... went to complain, and found out their price went down quicker then a blonde on prom night. If I had only bought the proven name, I may still have them. JL, MTX, Kicker, Audiobahn, Rocford Fosgate, MB Quartz, all have proven themselves with their speakers and amps, so if you ever find a deal on them or a divisional company of them, snap it up right quick.

As for the OHM's question, it was reffered to me as this, the less ohms, the more your brain splatters on the windsheild. The subs I have, to run them solo, requires 4 ohms, to run them paralell, requires a 2 ohm stable amp, but to get the kick you want, you must have the right amount of airspace for the sub.You don't have thet, it sounds like crap, and in time, you can easilly kiss your subs goodbye. So my besty advice, is find out the sound you want, and search out a deal. I mean, 2 12 for 33 a peice, I couldn't argue.
