Taco system gaining a little steam.

After a 3 week hunt for a good price and someone that can understand my bad German, and ships to the USA on some Ground Zero amps 1 or amp 2, and a store that stocked the Zapco 9.0 or Celestra DA6K, I found a store with this amp.







Got a good deal from an authorized dealer* to boot.

Now to begin the hunt on some components.
I have a more choices again.

Ground Zero 165SX
DLS Nobelium
Avant Garde Valeraine VM6 (I heard these in a BMW M5 today after they were just installed, and they sounded awesome.)

Gonna get a bigger alt and battery.
I may run the stock alt and a secondary alt, but if it's too much work, then no.

I forgot what it is called from electrical class, but (example) two 150 amp alts are better than one 300 amp.


The amp seems to be just for show since the Zapco and Ground Zero amps are about 10"-12" shorter.

See for yourself.

Rockford 30001bd

Ground Zero 1.5000SPL

Zapco C2K 9.0XD

Celestra DA6K

So what kind of box ideas?

Landon Toast... Gave me a few but he is MIA.

Thinking of mounting the amp on the floor like in some stores where the amps are under plexi glass. Just need a nice design for the box.

I was thinking of the subs on angles... the two outside subs angled towards the doors, and the two inside subs angled towards each other, or the left two angled towards each other and the same for the right two.

Or 4 in a two sub high two sub wide configuration, so I can slide the box over if I need to fit a person inside.
