give me an opinion on this system

I have a gmc s15 extended cab truck. and i am thinking about putting three 15"s in the extended cab part.

I have one extreme 15" from wal mart cheap i know.

And i am going to buy two legacy red series 15"s

And then buy a 2400 watt amp 2 channell legacy red series to push it all.

what is your opinion on it.

I may make my box like this

I would make sure they each have their own airspace. There's a guy with a cherokee around here that has 4 Powerbass 15s, but since they are all in the same air space with 2 firing up and 2 firing toward the rear, my 2 10s outbump him. He'd have an awesome system if he'd just rebuild his box.

Re: give me an opinion on this system

Spend the money on something that's actually worth it

Beer, women, a real sub, etc.
I guarantee you a single good 15 could kill those 3 POSs in every way imaginable, and take up less air space as well.

Legacy, Walmart Xtreme shit, Pyramid, Pyle, Lightning Audio, etc = crap

Re: give me an opinion on this system

Well if you want to start fresh don't go out and get the same crap you have in there now. I don't mean to be rude (I know I'm coming off like an asshole, lol), but IMO if you're going to do a system then do it right.

I don't really know what you're looking for in a system (sound quality, SPL, etc), but if you plan on using 15's you aren't going to get anything that even sounds decent unless you cough up the $$$ for something good.

If it were me I would ditch the idea of multiple 15's. If you get any 15" worth its weight in dog shit then just one of them will have enough output to make your hair stand on end, but it will cost you. Personally I would ditch the box, sell off the subs, sell the amp, and start fresh. Build a box for dual 12" or a single 15". Research everywhere before you pick your sub and amp, there are plenty of places to hear opinions (soundillusions, caraudioforum, here). It all depends on your budget really, but anything made by Elemental Designs, Resonant Engineering, Adire Audio, Image Dynamics, Crystal, and a few others will suit you great.

www.ikesound.com has about the cheapest prices I've seen so far, so you might want to look around there if you want something cheaper. The shipping on a 15 is going to be killer though. I haven't ordered from them yet though, so I'm not sure how reliable they are.

Re: give me an opinion on this system

Never heard of Emersion Mobile and I've heard of just about every sub manufacturer there is (atleast all the decent ones), which makes me pretty cautious. Not that they're bad, they could be kickass and just came out, but I don't know. The upper lines of MTX get loud but don't have the greatest sound quality, the rest of the lines (the stuff they sell at Best Buy) is crap.
